Performance adaptation mechanism under the performance dynamism

Based on the performance adaptation mechanism of adaptive performance, the adaptive process from cognitive crafting to ask focus is introduced, and a two-stage moderating mediated model is constructed. Three hundred and twenty-eight valid samples of six enterprises are tested by regression analysis, bootstrap and Johnson Neyman method. The results show that the performance dynamism threat does not necessarily lead to the improvement of subsequent performance, but under the moderated role of cognitive crafting in the first stage, the performance dynamism threat will be transformed into performance standard commitment, and then under the mediated role of task focus in the second stage, performance standard commitment will be transformed into task performance improvement. The theoretical value of the research lies in the construction of a complete performance adaptation mechanism to deal with the performance dynamism threat, and the practical implication lies in that it provides theoretical enlightenment for enterprises to deal with the challenges of changes, that is, through two stages of transition adaptation and reacquisition adaptation, guiding employees to focus on the challenges of tasks on the basis of reorganization of job cognition, so as to realize the performance dynamism threat is an opportunity for performance improvement. © 2021, Editorial Board of Journal of Systems Engineering Society of China.
