Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's rapidly changing environment, employee creativity is important for organizations to have competitive advantages for an organizational innovation, survival and long term success. Consequently, to examine how organizations can foster employee creativity can be extremely valuable to increase organizational competitiveness. Creativity researchers have examined the antecedents of employee creativity and found that personal characteristics (e.g., creative personality and openness), job characteristics (e.g., job autonomy), and work environment (e.g., team characteristics) independently or interactively influenced employee creativity. Although current creativity research has enhanced our understating about what factors influence employee creativity, less research has focused on examining how personal characteristics, job characteristics, and work environment jointly influence employee creativity. To address this issue, we examined how creative personality, skill variety, and team characteristics (i.e., team climate for creativity and team empowerment) influenced employee creativity independently and jointly. We collected data from 157 employee-supervisor pairs from research and development (R&D) departments in 14 organizations in South Korea. The organizations include three software development companies, three pharmaceuticals companies, two construction companies, and six manufacturing companies. The employees reported on their creative personality, skill variety, team climate for creativity, team empowerment, and their own creativity, while the supervisors assessed the employees' individual creativity. We conducted hierarchical multiple regression analyses to test our hypotheses regarding the direct relationships between creative personality, skill variety, and team characteristics and employee creativity, as well as their interactive effects on employee creativity. The results show that creative personality, skill variety, team climate for creativity, and team empowerment significantly influenced employee creativity, respectively. In addition, as expected, creative personality, skill variety, and team climate for creativity jointly influenced employee creativity. Specifically, when skill variety and team climate for creativity were both low, the relationship between creative personality and employee creativity (assessed by the employees) was the lowest. On the other hand, when skill variety was high and team climate for creativity was high, the relationship between creative personality and employee creativity (assessed by the employees) was the highest. The similar patterns were found for the interactive effects of creative personality, skill variety, and team empowerment on employee creativity (assessed by both the employees and the supervisors). This study provides several theoretical and practical implications. For example, the present study can contribute to creativity research by generalizing the effect of creative personality on employee creativity in South Korea context. It also extends current creativity research by examining the effects of skill variety and team characteristics on employee individual creativity. More important, this study theorized and examined how creativity personality, skill variety, and team characteristics jointly influence employee creativity. This approach has seldom been used in the literature and supports the arguments that personal characteristics, job characteristics, and work environment jointly influence employees' attitudes and behaviors (cf. Johns & Saks, 2005; Tett & Burnett, 2003). Findings in this study have also some practical implications in organizations. For example, organizations can enhance individual creativity by selecting people who have high creative personality. Organizations that aim to encourage individual creativity need to design jobs to enhance skill variety and build team characteristics that emphasize creativity and empower team members.

Download or read book Personality at Work written by Adrian Furnham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Personality at Work examines the increasingly controversial role of individual differences in predicting and determining behaviour at work. It asks whether psychological tests measuring personality traits can predict behaviour at work, such as job satisfaction, productivity, as well as absenteeism and turnover. Importantly, it is a critical and comprehensive review of that literature from psychology, sociology and management science which lies at the interface of personality theory, occupational psychology and organizational behaviour. Drawing on a vast body of published material, Adrian Furnham describes for the first time current state of knowledge in this area. The result is a volume which will be an enormously useful resource to the researcher and practitioner, as well as students of psychology, management science and sociology. Personality at Work is the only exhaustive and incisive multi-disciplinary work to assess the role of psychological testing in the management of the work place.

This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Personnel and Organisation, grade: 1.0, University of Groningen (Faculty of Economics and Business), course: Bachelor Thesis, language: English, abstract: Based on its relevance and influence to a considerable range of fields within the business world, creativity has become a topic of growing interest. Since recent research by Chavez-Eakle, Eakle and Cruz Fuentes (2012) revealed that certain personality traits are related to creativity, the negative relationship between conscientiousness and creativity appears to be well established for individuals and groups across different contexts (Robert & Cheung, 2010). However, little is known about the underlying processes of this relationship. To address this need, the present study examines the possibility that the relationship between conscientiousness and employees' creativity is mediated by the extent to which individuals are engaged in their work. On the basis of existing literature, it is hypothesized that work engagement mediates the relationship between conscientiousness and employees' creativity. Specifically, it is argued that conscientiousness positively relates to work engagement and that in turn, work engagement positively relates to creativity. Using a large multi-source field study, the results of the correlation and regression analysis supported almost all hypotheses. Thus, work engagement was found to fully mediate the relationship. Results also revealed that conscientiousness was positively associated with work engagement and that work engagement was positively related to creativity. However, we did not find support for Hypothesis 1, which predicted conscientiousness and creativity are negatively related. Implications and suggestions for practice and future research are provided."
Download or read book Personality and Work written by Murray Barrick and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2004-02-01 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of personality has received increasing attention from industrial/organizational psychologists in both research and practice settings over the past decade. But while there is an overabundance of information related to the narrow area of personality testing and employee selection, there has been no definitive source offering a broader perspective on the overall topic of personality in the workplace. Personality and Work at last provides an in-depth examination of the role of personality in work behavior. An array of expert authors discusses the connection of personality to a wide range of outcomes beyond performance, including counterproductive behaviors, contextual performance, retaliatory behaviors, retention, learning, knowledge creation, and the process of sharing that knowledge. Throughout the book, the authors present theoretical perspectives, introduce new models and frameworks, and integrate and synthesize prior studies in ways that will stimulate future research and practice. Contributors to this volume include: Murray R. Barrick, Michael J. Cullen, David V. Day, Ed Diener, J. Kevin Ford, Lewis R. Goldberg, Leaetta Hough, Jeff W. Johnson, Martin J.
