Why is Innovative Work Behaviour important for IR 4.0? A Theoretical Review

Abstract:

Each industrial revolution exhibits certain requirement that involves in the thriving of the revolution. In the latest industrial revolution known as Industrial Revolution 4.0 (IR 4.0) which is based on the development and advancement of internet and cyber technology. The key motivation for the current revolution relies on the production and creation of products and services that are innovative and creative in nature. Therefore, innovation and creativity is evidently a significant factor that contributes to the development of IR 4.0, furthermore it enables innovative work behaviour to cater for the development of a sound workforce. Hence, this theoretical paper is aimed at exploring and understanding the innovative work behaviour on IR 4.0.
