This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research aims to identify the mediating impact of self-efficacy between organizational culture and performance of employees particularly in banking sector of Pakistan. This study is empirical and deductive in nature. Total respondents were 184 which was analysed by software SPSS version 24.0. Four hypotheses have been deduced for this study and all four hypotheses were supported and the results suggest that all the independent variables have detrimental impact on performance of employees in Banking Sector. Also, Finally, the analysis of the likely mediating effect shows that adoptions of self-efficacy has a significant impact in case of individual analysis of cultural variables and partial mediation indirect impact on employee performance. In other words, findings suggest that organizational culture and self-efficacy is a key tool in determining the performance of employees at workplace. Generalizability of the results is one of the limitations, moreover study was conducted with limited set of variables that would have been undertaken in future with more diverse variables to have more comprehensive understanding of how the various cultural trends impacts performance and competency of employees. Data was collected through an anticipated sample size of 184 which is comparatively small to draw the inclusive conclusions due to cost, time and respondent's willingness and availability constraints. In sum, the main contribution of this study is, first it went into the “blind-box” organizational culture and employee performance and inspects whether self-efficacy mediates the relationship of the former variables. Secondly, this study provides an empirical support that self-efficacy has mediating effect. Thirdly, it also provides the evidence of relationship at least partially, between organizational cultures and self-efficacy which has yet not been reported so far especially in particular to bureaucratic, supportive and innovative culture.

Book A Quantitative Study

Download or read book A Quantitative Study written by Rachel Hope Dawson and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As organizational leadership continues to focus on personalized approaches, organizations' need for understanding employees on an individualized level heightens. Within organizational research, intrapersonal skills have demonstrated connections to employees' performance; concurrently, they have also been empirically linked to attachment styles, which emphasize the role and impacts of childhood-formed schemas in adult life, outside of organizational contexts. Although attachment styles and their impacts on interpersonal relationships have been examined in organizational contexts, their application to intrapersonal skills is empirically limited. The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine the relationship between attachment styles and employees' self-efficacy, as it relates to novel tasks in the workplace. It was guided by the following research questions: 1.) Are there significant patterns of self-efficacy present when employees encounter and engage in novel work tasks? 2.) Is there a significant relationship between attachment style and employees' self-efficacy, as it pertains to novel work tasks? 3.) Does attachment style significantly impact employees' self-efficacy, when they encounter and engage in novel work tasks? By studying the role of attachment styles and their influence on self-efficacy within organizational contexts, this researcher aimed to provide insights and recommendations for leaders in their pursuits of employee developmental, organizational change, and personalized leadership practices. Full-time staff and faculty members from a school within a four-year higher education institution were invited to complete an anonymous questionnaire, combining two instruments that assess attachment and creative self-efficacy. The quantitative design utilized various forms of analysis of variance, as well as t-tests, as the primary statistical measures to examine differences and potential relationships within data. Only one significant finding was found, contradicting existing research and suggesting that mediating factors and influencing aspects of the study's design may have affected the data. Recommendations for practice are based on these potential mediators, as well as in existing research, and include further learning of attachment theory, examining the frequency of employees' exposure to novel tasks, and evaluating the perceived and actual support given to employees. Additionally, expanding the target population, replacing the self-efficacy instrument, and isolating organizational culture as a mediating factor are suggested for future research directions.

Book The Moderating Role of Self Efficacy in the Organizational Culture Training Transfer Relationship

Download or read book The Moderating Role of Self Efficacy in the Organizational Culture Training Transfer Relationship written by Maria Simosi and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper aims to examine the combined effects of self-efficacy and organizational culture on employees' transfer of knowledge/skills acquired through training. The questionnaires were distributed to 252 newly hired employees working in a service organization in Greece. Each of the independent variables examined added incrementally to the prediction of training transfer. Moreover, self-efficacy was found to act as a moderator in the organizational culture-training transfer relationship. High self-efficacy was found to strengthen both achievement culture-training transfer as well as humanistic culture-training transfer relationships, whereas low self-efficacy weakened these relationships. The study has practical implications by providing insights into ways of engaging employees in transferring the skills acquired during training. This investigation extends previous research by demonstrating that self-efficacy acts as an accentuating factor in the relationship between organizational culture orientations and new hires' transfer of training.

This book was released on 2023-05-22 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industrial and organizational psychology (I-O psychology) contributes to an organization’s success by improving the job performance, wellbeing, motivation, job satisfaction, and the health and safety of employees. Given the extent to which organizations today are increasingly comprised of employees from different cultural and language backgrounds, studying the cultural aspect of I-O psychology has become a necessity.

Covering topics such as employability, motivation theories, and workplace culture, this major reference work is a comprehensive resource for I-O psychologists, business leaders and managers, entrepreneurs, human resource managers, government officials, students and educators of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.

Book The Routledge Handbook of Consumer Behaviour in Hospitality and Tourism

Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Consumer Behaviour in Hospitality and Tourism written by Saurabh Kumar Dixit and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumer behaviour is one of the most explored topics in tourism and hospitality marketing, interchangeably denoted by the terms ‘traveller behaviour’, ‘tourist behaviour’ or ‘guest behaviour’. Consumer behaviour acts as an origin for every tourism and hospitality marketing activity. It offers an understanding of why people tend to choose certain products or services and what sort of factors influence them in making their decision. The decision process of buying tourism products or services takes time, because they are mostly intangible in nature due to which there are many risks involved in their buying process. The Routledge Handbook of Consumer Behaviour in Hospitality and Tourism aims to explore and critically examine current debates, critical reflections of contemporary ideas, controversies and pertinent queries relating to the rapidly expanding discipline of consumer behaviour in hospitality and tourism. The Handbook offers a platform for dialogue across disciplinary and national boundaries and areas of study through its diverse coverage. It is divided into six parts: Part I offers an overview of consumer behaviour; Part II focuses on the service quality perspectives of consumer behaviour; Part III deliberates on customer satisfaction and consumer behaviour linkages; Part IV explores the re-patronage behaviour of consumers; Part V addresses the vital issues concerning online consumer behaviour; and Part VI elaborates upon other emerging paradigms of consumer behaviour. Although there is no dearth of empirical studies on different viewpoints of consumer behaviour, there is a scarcity of literature providing conceptual information. The present Handbook is organised to offer a comprehensive theoretical body of knowledge narrating consumer behaviour, especially for hospitality and tourism businesses and operations. It attempts to fill this research gap by offering a 'globalised' volume comprising chapters organised using both practical and academic approaches. This Handbook is essential reading for students, researchers and academics of Hospitality as well as those of Tourism, Marketing, International Business and Consumer Behaviour.
