Understanding the causes and effects of employee innovation involvement—the extent to which an employee is involved in generating and executing innovations in his or her organization—is crucial since innovating is critical to boosting organizational performance and competitiveness. Leadership's refusal to embrace employee concerns about innovation has harmed staff productivity, performance, and commitments, as well as job satisfaction.

The study revealed that high-performance work system positively and significantly related with employee innovativeness. Furthermore, the moderating effect of knowledge sharing culture in the relationship between GRIT and employee innovativeness was significant.
