Abstract
Innovation plays a crucial role in driving and supporting organizations to improve work processes to be more efficient, leading to increased competitiveness. The objectives of this research were: 1) to study the structural components of innovative organizations for Thai small and medium-sized industrial enterprises; 2) to examine the key factors that contribute to Thai small and medium-sized industrial enterprises being innovative organizations; and 3) to synthesize an innovative organizational model for small and medium-sized industrial enterprises. The researcher employed meta-analysis for this study with the use of qualitative and quantitative synthesis methods. The researcher collected the qualitative and quantitative research papers that studied relevant issues of innovative organizations and were published in the databases of educational institutions to analyze the data with the use of content analysis, interpret the results, and draw conclusions from the study. The results showed that the structural components of innovative organizations consisted of strategy and vision that promote innovation, innovative organizational structure, organizational culture and environment that foster creativity, innovative leadership, innovative knowledge creation processes, involvement in innovation, and management of human resources and tools. The factors contributing to small and medium-sized industrial enterprises to be innovative organizations include digital technology, proactive business transformation, and learning and work systems. The innovative organizations applied this model through four steps of organizational management processes: planning (Plan), execution (Do), assessment (Check), and improvement (Act).
