Abstract

This paper uses Partial Least Square (PLS) as an analysis tool to test the hypothesized relationships of Managerial Ties and Organizational Citizenship Behaviours (OCBs) with Open Innovation and tests the moderating effect of appropriability regimes on these relations. 60 managers from 60 firms Malaysian firms participated in this study. The results reveal that managerial ties relate to open innovation, while non-significant findings are found with the other two hypotheses. Social Exchange and Actor-Network theories are used to explain the framework of this study. Limitations, practical and academic implications are discussed.

Keywords: Open Innovation, organizational citizenship behaviours, managerial ties, Malaysia
