Book Employee turnover intention  Empirical evidence from the Savings and Loans Companies in Ghana

Download or read book Employee turnover intention Empirical evidence from the Savings and Loans Companies in Ghana written by Michael Asiedu Gyensare and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2016-07-20 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: A, University of Ghana, Legon (University of Ghana Business School), course: MPhil Human Resource Management, language: English, abstract: The study examined the relationship among antecedents, employee turnover intention and outcome variables. First, it was proposed that pay satisfaction, job satisfaction, affective commitment, transformational leadership, transactional leadership, psychological climate, normative commitment and continuance commitment would antecede employee turnover intention. Next, turnover intention was expected to influence perceptions of absenteeism. Finally, thoughts of quitting was presented as a moderator between turnover intention and absenteeism as acceptable or accountable work behaviour. A nonexperimental, cross-sectional, descriptive correlational design was adopted for the study. Also, the multi-stage sampling method was used to select the three hundred and forty (340) employees who completed the survey instrument. Hypotheses were tested through correlational and hierarchical regression analytic procedures. The antecedent variables were all significant and inversely related to employee turnover intention and employee turnover intention on the other hand was also significantly related to acceptable absence legitimacy. However, for the turnover intention model, the hierarchical regression analysis results indicated that affective commitment, normative commitment, pay satisfaction, job satisfaction and transformational leadership predicted employees intention to quit. For the absenteeism model, the hierarchical regression analysis results showed that turnover intention did not influence employees’ perception of acceptable and accountable absence legitimacy and thoughts of quitting did not also moderate the postulated relationship. It was concluded that management in the SLCs should pay utmost attention to employees pay satisfaction, job satisfaction, affective commitment, normative commitment and transformational leadership in order to lessen or completely eliminate the high turnover rate in the NBFIs.

Book Multiple Commitments in the Workplace

Download or read book Multiple Commitments in the Workplace written by Aaron Cohen and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2003-10-17 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growing interest in multiple commitments among researchers and practitioners is evinced by the greater attention in the literature to the broader concept of work commitment. This includes specific objects of commitment, such as organization, work group, occupation, the union, and one's job. In the last several years a sizable body of research has accumulated on the multidimensional approach to commitment. This knowledge needs to be marshaled, its strengths highlighted, and its importance, as well as some of its weaknesses made known, with the aim of guiding future research on commitment based on a multidimensional approach. This book's purpose is to summarize this knowledge, as well as to suggest ideas and directions for future research. Most of the book addresses what seems to be the important aspects of commitment by a multidimensional approach: the differences among these forms, the definition and boundaries of commitment foci as part of a multidimensional approach, their interrelationships, and their effect on outcomes, mainly work outcomes. Two chapters concern aspects rarely examined--the relationship of commitment foci to aspects of nonwork domains and cross-cultural aspects of commitment foci--that should be important topics for future research. Addressing innovative focuses of multiple commitments at work, this book: *suggests a provocative and innovative approach on how to conceptualize and understand multiple commitments in the workplace; *provides a thorough and updated review of the existing research on multiple commitments; *analyzes the relationships among commitment forms and how they might affect behavior at work; and *covers topics rarely covered in multiple commitment research and includes all common scales of commitment forms that can assist researchers and practitioners in measuring commitment forms.

Book Work and Inequality in Urban China

Download or read book Work and Inequality in Urban China written by Yanjie Bian and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1994-01-11 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a systematic analysis of the impact of work organization on the social stratification of individuals in urban China. It explains why economic and labor market segmentation is possible and necessary in state socialism at a certain stage of its development, as in market capitalism, and how important one's work unit or danwei is to the life of socialist workers in Chinese cities. Based on survey data, personal interviews, and official statistics, the author shows that structural allocation, status inheritance, educational achievement, political virtue, and interpersonal connections (guanxi) interplay in determining an individual's opportunities for entering and moving into a desirable place to work, for obtaining Communist party membership and an elite class status, and for receiving material compensation such as wages, bonuses, fringe benefits, housing, and home locations.

Book Increasing Job Satisfaction and Organizational Commitment in the Millennial Workforce

Download or read book Increasing Job Satisfaction and Organizational Commitment in the Millennial Workforce written by Courtney A. Tschantz and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Members of the Millennial Generation have higher rates of turnover compared to other generations. This can represent significant costs to organizations, and therefore is important to minimize. Job satisfaction has been shown to increase motivation and productivity as well as decrease turnover, and can be maximized by adjusting economic factors, fostering interpersonal relationships, and adjusting activities, tasks, and work conditions to the personality of the worker. All three types of organizational commitment (affective, normative, and continuance) also decrease turnover rates. Both job satisfaction and organizational commitment depend on a worker’s personality, needs, and expectations, which are influenced by the generation they were born into. Implementing mentoring programs and making specific changes in job design and work environment according to Millennials’ needs and expectations could increase Millennial satisfaction and commitment.

Book Thriving in Digital Workspaces

Download or read book Thriving in Digital Workspaces written by Melinde Coetzee and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-30 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume focuses on innovative solutions to the debate on human thriving in the fast emerging technology-driven cyber-physical work context, also called Industry 4.0. The volume asks the important question: How can people remain relevant and thrive in workplaces that are increasingly virtual, technology-driven, and imbued with artificial intelligence? This volume includes two major streams of discussion: it provides multidisciplinary perspectives on what thriving could mean for individuals, managers and organisations in current and future non-linear and Web-driven workspaces. In this context, it points to the need to rethink the curricula of the psychology of human thriving so that it is applicable to Industry 4.0. Second, it discusses the new platforms of learning opening up in organisations and the ways and means with which people's learning practices can be adapted to changing scenarios. Some of these scenarios are: changing job designs and talent requirements; the demand for creativity; the need for virtual teams and intercultural collaborations; and changing emotional competencies. This topical volume includes contributions by scholars from across the world, and is of interest to scholars, practitioners and postgraduate students of psychology, organizational behaviour and human resource management.

Book Considerations and Characteristics of the Millennial Leader in Today   s Global Society

Download or read book Considerations and Characteristics of the Millennial Leader in Today s Global Society written by Graham, Tymon M. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2023-10-04 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As leaders climb the executive ladder, there are unique differences between age groups. The millennial leader must be groomed for success and faces many obstacles as they progress. As prior generations begin to retire, the next set of leaders must be in the position to sustain the new roles that they are ascending to and have the knowledge and competency to do so. As these leaders quickly move into senior roles, they must be sufficiently prepared. Without this advancement and preparation, there will be no leaders to sustain our organizations and institutions. Considerations and Characteristics of the Millennial Leader in Today’s Global Society explores the routes of millennial leaders for ascension through the educational and corporate ranks, along with the challenges, lessons learned, and qualifications needed to be successful. It provides narratives and insights on the millennial leader, leadership qualities needed of future leaders, and delves into other millennial leaders who have ascended, as well as how managers, supervisors, and senior leaders can help in the changes of the organizational life cycle. Covering topics such as emotionally intelligent leadership, positive social psychology, and leadership development, this premier reference source is an essential resource for business executives and managers, human resource managers, entrepreneurs, government officials, politicians, community leaders, students and educators of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.

Book Organizational Commitment and Knowledge Sharing in Contemporary Companies

Download or read book Organizational Commitment and Knowledge Sharing in Contemporary Companies written by Anna Wziątek-Staśko and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When evaluating the success of an organization, the value of employees' organizational commitment and the process of knowledge sharing among staff must be considered. As illustrated in this volume, these two concepts are key conditions for organizational success in the contemporary world. This book explores the concept of organizational commitment, what it is, and how to use and understand the value in knowledge management and sharing for both employees and organizations as a whole. A profound analysis of the global literature exposes organizational commitment and knowledge sharing as key determinants of the effectiveness of the organization management process, including human capital management. While much space in the literature on the subject is devoted to the exploration of the above-mentioned concepts, treated as categories subject to separate analysis, the diagnosis and analysis of the relationship between them should be treated as a poorly recognized process. This book fills a research gap, providing a theoretical foundation and important information on organizational commitment and knowledge sharing, highlighting the relationship between both research categories. It will be of interest to researchers, academics, practitioners, and students in the fields of human resource management, leadership, and organizational studies"--

Book Managing the New Workforce

Download or read book Managing the New Workforce written by Eddy Ng and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millennials, the latest generation to enter the global workforce, are changing the face of employment. This volume represents the most up-to-date research on the changes and issues from an international cast of generational researchers. Shifting demographics around the world have created a unique historical phenomenon in which a large cohort of employees (i.e., post-war Baby Boomers) are nearing retirement, and a new cadre of younger workers are being recruited to replace them. These twenty-something year-olds, often referred to as ÔGen YÕ or Millennials, represent the workforce of the future and come with their own set of expectations, demands, and work habits. The contributors to this volume, drawn from countries around the world, document the cultural, historical, and social context surrounding this phenomenon. The international perspective makes it possible to examine cross-cultural similarities and differences in HRM practices. This timely book provides an understanding of the new workforce in multiple countries and settings and a valuable reference as scholars and employers seek to understand the values, beliefs, and expectations of the next generation of workers. While scholars and instructors will find this book indispensable, the book will also have implications for domestic and multinational employers, managers, HR practitioners, and career counselors.
