Abstract
The purposes of this research were to 1) study the relationship among perceptions of individual – level of organizational culture, knowledge management, and innovations of KITS Group; and 2) examine the consistency between the structural equation model and empirical evidence; and 3) study the influences of individual – level of organizational culture and knowledge management on innovations of KITS Group. Sample group consisted of 233 members of the KTIS Group Innovative Program obtained from a simple random sampling. Data was analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficient, considering the consistence between the model and fit indices and using path analysis. It was found, from the research findings, that 1) correlation among observed variables were 0.276-0.694 2) the structural equation model perceptions of individual – level of organizational culture and knowledge management influencing on innovations within KTIS Group is in harmonious with the fit indices with Chi-square = 45.70, df = 34, χ2/df =1.34, P-value = 0.086, RMSEA =0.059, CFI = 0.99 2), organizational innovation is influenced directly by knowledge management (DE=0.57, p < 0.05) and
organizational culture (DE=0.26, p < 0.05) and also indirectly by organizational culture (IE = 0.44, p < 0.05) through knowledge management, with the results of this research indicating that all of the variables can predict 50% of a dependent variable (KTIS Group Innovation) with significant level of .05
