This study aims to enrich the extant literature by investigating the predictive ability of IT capability on service innovation in the luxury hotel sector, with the mediating roles of organizational responsiveness and organizational learning capability. The study also examines how the alignments between and among IT capability, organizational responsiveness, and organizational learning capability affect service innovation. Results of structural equation modeling using a sample of 237 luxury hotels indicate that IT capability is positively related to service innovation, and organizational responsiveness has a positive mediating effect in this relationship. In addition, organizational learning capability positively mediates the link between IT capability and organizational responsiveness. Notably, the alignments between and among IT capability, organizational responsiveness, and organizational learning capability all positively influence service innovation. A bootstrap analysis of another sample of 213 luxury hotels confirms the relationships between the variables. This study's findings provide implications for researchers and managers regarding enhancing service innovation for luxury hotels from the perspectives of IT capability, organizational responsiveness, and organizational learning capability. 本文探讨信息技术能力对豪华酒店业服务创新的影响, 以组织反应能力和组织学习能力作为中介变量。另外, 本文也探讨信息技术能力, 组织反应能力和组织学习能力之间的匹配度如何影响服务创新。使用237家豪华酒店作为研究样本, 结构方程模式的分析结果表明信息技术能力正向影响服务创新, 组织反应能力和组织学习能力在此关系中也起了积极的中介效应。另外, 信息技术能力, 组织反应能力和组织学习能力之间的匹配度正向影响服务创新。我们收集了另外一个样本, 包括213家豪华酒店。Bootstrap分析结果确认了所有的研究假设。 关键词:信息技术能力, 组织反应能力, 组织学习能力, 服务创新, 豪华酒店。
