    This study reports on results of an empirical investigation designed to assess the impact of a firm´s propensities of innovativeness and risk taking upon its innovation performance in the Chinese transitional economic context. The key findings of this research are based on data collected from 207 senior and middle managers. The results indicate that a firm´s propensity of innovativeness is an important factor in understanding its innovation performance. The research also demonstrates that a firm´s risk taking propensity does not improve its innovation performance. Implications of these findings and limitations of this study are discussed.
