In an era of rapid digital transformation, organisations must cultivate dynamic capabilities that promote innovation and continuous learning. This study examines how self-determined motivation and innovation adoption are crucial enablers in developing the digital competencies essential for employees to navigate digital transformation. Grounded in Self-Determination Theory and the Diffusion of Innovation framework, our research underscores the systemic role of individual agency, technological advancements, and organisational structures in facilitating workforce adaptation. Employing a quantitative approach with 152 survey participants, our findings reveal that self-determined motivation alone is inadequate, while adopting innovation significantly influences digital competence. We demonstrate that human-centred factors must align with systemic digital transformation efforts. Moreover, we highlight the necessity of integrating employee capabilities into broader enterprise and government digital innovation strategies. The implications of this study are both theoretical and practical. We stress the need for organisations to design change processes that support digital knowledge acquisition and adaptability in evolving workplaces. Our research offers a systemic perspective on digital transformation, reinforcing that successful organisational innovation requires structured learning environments that empower employees. By fostering an ecosystem where digital competencies are nurtured, organisations can enhance agility, resilience, and sustained competitiveness in the digital age. Full article

Digital technology drives global industrial transformation. The synchronized development of organizational digital transformation and innovation systems is pivotal in corporate strategy and governmental governance. The dynamic interaction mechanisms among digital economy, government innovation policy, and regional innovation capacity remain insufficiently explored. This study employs panel data from 15 prefecture-level cities within the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration, spanning the years 2012 to 2020, and uses the panel vector autoregression (PVAR) model to investigate the interrelationships among the digital economy, government innovation preferences (the government’s supportive attitude and policy inclination towards innovative activities in the fields of science and technology as well as economic development), and regional innovation capacity. This research emphasizes the impact of the digital economy on regional innovation capacity and the influence of government innovation preferences on regional innovation capacity. The findings indicate that both the digital economy and government innovation preferences significantly enhance technological and product innovation, with this effect being particularly pronounced in the initial stages but diminishing over time. The three dimensions of the digital economy exert varying effects on technological and product innovation. Specifically, digital application has the most substantial impact on technological innovation, whereas infrastructure has a more pronounced effect on product innovation. Overall, the influence of government innovation preferences on technological and product innovation is less significant than that of the digital economy. The intensity of government innovation preferences has a greater impact than does the structure of government innovation preferences; however, in the long term, the structure of government innovation preferences can exert a more stable and sustainable influence. This study offers policy implications for constructing an innovation ecosystem driven by the synergy between government and market forces, particularly in optimizing data governance systems and planning sustainable transformation pathways, which hold practical value.

In the big data era, global business competition focuses on industrial chain coordination. The whole rural e-commerce industry chain, as an advanced system characterized by digital transformation, is experiencing rapid growth. This paper aims to explore the evolutionary mechanism of collaborative behavior in the digital transformation of platform enterprises and participating enterprises across the whole rural e-commerce industry chain. To achieve this, this paper combines prospect theory and evolutionary game theory, introduces the value function and decision weight of prospect theory, and constructs a two-party game model between platform enterprises and participating enterprises. Based on the demonstration of the impact of individual changes in major objective factors, such as the cooperative innovation benefit coefficient, as well as major behavioral characteristic factors, such as decision-makers’ risk attitude coefficients, on enterprises’ strategic choices, we further reveal the influence of the interaction of key factors on the evolutionary results through case simulations. The findings indicate that when the behavior characteristics of the players are introduced, the threshold interval of the cost–benefit ratio of the two sides to reach the optimal state of decision-making is obviously reduced. Under moderate risk attitudes and degrees of loss sensitivity, enhancing the resource absorption capacity of enterprises in the chain and reducing the potential risk loss of platform enterprises to alleviate the influence of subjective behavior characteristics on cooperation willingness are effective measures. Improving innovation ability is the key factor in alleviating the negative impact of uncertainty on the decision-making of both parties. This paper is one of the few studies to integrate prospect theory with evolutionary game analysis in examining the collaborative behaviors between platform enterprises and participating enterprises. Effective strategies are proposed to promote enterprises achieving synergy. Full article

Various industries see digital transformation (DT) as the pillar to coping with intensified competition, energy crises, and climate change. As a critical sector for DT, the construction industry’s project-oriented paradigm and immature industrialized production method limit the research on emerging digital technology and ignore the theoretical mechanism. Through the lens of system adaptability, this study proposes a multifaceted model to examine the DT effectiveness and unveil the driving mechanism. (1) An extensive literature review, action research, and the nominal group technique identified 21 determinants, which were categorized into a technological–organizational–environmental (TOE) framework to analyze the construction industry’s DT determinants from multiple dimensions. (2) This research utilizes data from 272 respondents collected through field research, with a survey designed to measure the relationships among variables. (3) Structural equation modeling (SEM) through Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOSs) has been used to analyze the hypotheses and analyze the impact of determinants from various dimensions on DT and examine their influence pathways. The results indicate that determinants in the technological, organizational, and environmental dimensions positively affect DT’s success in the construction industry. The influence of the technological dimension is the strongest, and the organizational dimension is the weakest. The research findings offer valuable recommendations and insights for stakeholders in the construction industry, highlighting the importance of considering these three dimensions to enhance the overall effectiveness of DT when driving industry transformation and upgrading. Additionally, this study uses the TOE framework to reveal determinants from multiple dimensions. It combines SEM to explore the pathways of their effects, offering key theoretical insights for the body of knowledge. Full article
