This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The startup companies have a limited knowledge of how employee engagement, job satisfaction and organizational commitment are related to each other. The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine if a relationship exists between employee engagement, job satisfaction and organizational commitment within the startup sector. The study considered the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model proposed by Demerouti and Bakker (2006) which was published in The Journal of Managerial Psychology. The sample consisted of the 72 participants from the various startups located in the Silicon Valley. The participants were recruited through the researcher's personal network on LinkedIn. The results of this study showed that there is a significant relationship between employee engagement, employee job satisfaction, and organizational commitment since all the p-values for alpha were less than 0.05. Additionally, the findings indicated that age is not a moderating variable on the relationship between employee engagement, employee job satisfaction and organizational commitment. The implications for positive social change include strategies that are focused on increased employee engagement and job satisfaction, which in turn affects organizational commitment that results in increased profitability.

Download or read book What is the Relationship Between Employee Engagement and Job Satisfaction to Organizational Commitment in Supply Chain Management written by Phaylinh "Tia" Nosavan Prang and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Middle East, one of the biggest challenges facing supply chain business leaders was the expatriate assignment failures, an average turnover rate of 12%, with the main reason an inability to cope with lifestyle adjustments due to cultural and family pressures. Additionally, fifty-one percent of expatriates leave the multinational corporation (MNC) within two years of repatriation (De Ruiter, Lub, Jansma, and Blomme, 2018; Haak-Saheem, Darwish, & Al-Nasser, 2017; Stoermer, Haslberger, Froese, & Kraeh, 2018). The Middle Eastern workforce showed the disproportionate ratio of expatriates to local nationals in which nearly 99% of employees in the private sector in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) were expatriates (De Ruiter et al., 2018 & Haak-Saheem et al., 2017). The purpose of this quantitative correlation study is to examine the relationship between independent variables (employee engagement-EE and job satisfaction-JS), and dependent variable (organizational commitment-OC) in the supply chain managers of the Middle East organization. The findings of this study showed that there are statistically significant relationships among EE, JS, and OC, indicating the p-values lower than the alpha level of 0.05 for all variables. The findings also showed that age does have a moderating effect on the relationship between EE and OC, Beta = 0.115, p = 0.049, but not in the relationship between JS and OC. Conversely, gender, nationality, and tenure showed no moderation effect in the relationships among EE, JS, and OC. Recommendations to increase both EE and JS are (1) increase EE through organizational culture, gender-balanced management teams, self-efficacy, work-life balance, and a supportive work environment, and (2) increase JS through effective communication, employee development, rewards and recognition, and supervisor support.

Download or read book Creating Engaged Employees written by William J. Rothwell and published by Association for Talent Development. This book was released on 2014-09-04 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maintaining high employee engagement is key to business success. Research shows that many members of today’s workforce feel overworked and underappreciated—all factors that attribute to high turnover, low customer satisfaction, increased incidences of health and safety problems, and low productivity and profitability. Engaged employees, on the other hand, feel recognized, encouraged, and supported—they demonstrate enthusiasm, inspiration, and pride in their jobs. Despite work demands and pressure, they successfully achieve their individual and team goals. Creating Engaged Employees uses practical wisdom and scholarly research to answer: What is employee engagement? What makes someone engaged or disengaged? How can we measure employee engagement? How can organizations engage employees? How can organizations keep employees engaged without causing burnout?

Download or read book The Employee Experience written by Tracy Maylett and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-01-30 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever notice how companies with the best service also have the happiest employees? That’s no accident. Do you want to build a strong, successful organization? Start by ignoring your customers. Really. Instead, focus first on creating a better employee experience, or EX. Your employees interact with customers, make them smile, and carry your brand message from the warehouse to the front lines. If your employees are having a great experience, so will your customers. In The Employee Experience, employee engagement pioneers Tracy Maylett and Matthew Wride reveal the secrets not only to attracting and retaining top talent, but to building a deeply engaged workforce—the foundation of organizational success. With deep insights into the dynamics of trust and mutual expectations, this book shows that before you can deliver a transcendent customer experience (CX), you must first build a superlative EX. With real-world examples and more than 24 million employee survey responses, Maylett and Wride reveal a clear, consistent pattern among the world’s most successful organizations. By establishing a clear set of expectations and promises—collectively known as the Contract—and upholding it consistently, employers can build the trust that leads to powerful engagement. Whether in business, healthcare, education, sports, or nonprofit, these organizations are consistently more successful and more profitable, enjoy sustainable growth, and win the battle to keep today’s rarest resource: talented people. Blending rigorous research, detailed case studies, in-depth interviews and expert insights, The Employee Experience will teach you to: Make the employee experience a core part of your strategy Understand employee expectations and bridge the “Expectation Gap” Establish rock-solid Brand, Transactional, and Psychological Contracts that breed trust and confidence Build an employee-employer partnership in creating something extraordinary Turn employee engagement into fuel for customer satisfaction, profit, and growth Attracting talent, retaining top performers, and creating an environment in which employees choose to engage drives results.

Download or read book Work Orientations written by Bengt Furåker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work orientations and work attitudes have to do with the productive capacities in society. Insofar as individuals are positively oriented towards contributing their labour, we can expect a great amount of work to be done and to be carried out efficiently, carefully and responsibly. These subjective factors are thus very vital in modern working life. Work Orientations: Theoretical Perspectives and Empirical Findings offers up-to-date research on people’s commitment to work and employment and job satisfaction in economically advanced countries. It will also analyse changes that have taken place in these respects over the last decades. Among the key issues in Work Orientations are questions about whether patterns of work centrality and employment commitment tend to remain stable or have changed across time in various countries. Moreover, we assume that the circumstances under which people participate in the social division of labour colour their subjective relationships to their jobs and to employment in general. A major aim of the book is to explore the impact of factors such as occupation, education, age and gender on work orientations and work attitudes. Work Orientations will be invaluable for researchers and scholars in the fields or organizational studies, the sociology of work, employee engagement and related disciplines.
