Book Employee Traits  Perceived Organizational Support  Supervisory Communication  Affective Commitment  and Intent to Leave  Group Differences

Download or read book Employee Traits Perceived Organizational Support Supervisory Communication Affective Commitment and Intent to Leave Group Differences written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explored the implications a diversifying workforce may have on employee attitudes, perceptions, and intention to leave the organization. Employee responses to an annual company survey (N=2838) were analyzed to determine whether demographic groups differed in perceptions of organizational support and supervisory communication, organizational commitment, and intention to leave. Demographic groups of interest included gender, job classification, and race. Age and tenure differences were also studied. The study also examined the relationship between perceived organizational support, affective commitment, perceived supervisory communication, and intention to leave. The predictive relationship between perceived organizational support, affective commitment, perceived supervisory communication, and employee demographics with intention to leave was also explored. Results of this study suggest that gender differences are diminishing in the current workforce. Further, it suggests that meaningful group differences are not prevalent in the sample analyzed. Affective commitment, perceived organizational support, and supervisory communication were shown to be positively related. Employees who intended to leave could not be consistently identified by their attitudes, perceptions, and demographic information using discriminant function analysis.

Book The Moderating Role of Perceived Organizational Support and Perceived Supervisor Support on the Relationship Between Teamwork Behaviors and Affective Commitment

Download or read book The Moderating Role of Perceived Organizational Support and Perceived Supervisor Support on the Relationship Between Teamwork Behaviors and Affective Commitment written by Carlie A. Stephens and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers have identified employee affective commitment as a key indicator of variables that are of great interest to organizations (Mowday, Porter, & Steers, 1982). Teamwork behaviors have been identified as predictors of affective commitment (Meyer, Stanley, Herscovitch, & Topolnytsky, 2002). However, very few studies have examined the moderating effect organizational and supervisor support may have on these relationships. The purpose of this study was to examine the moderating effects of perceived organizational support and perceived supervisor support on the relationship between teamwork behaviors and affective commitment. Results of a survey administered to 3,926 employees in a medical device company revealed that both perceived organizational support and perceived supervisor support significantly moderated the relationship between teamwork behaviors and affective commitment, suggesting that employees who experience more cooperation, communication, and collaboration (teamwork behaviors) report higher levels of affective commitment when they feel their contributions are valued by their organizations and supervisors. It is suggested that organizations focus on increasing perceptions of organizational support and supervisor support because support moderates the relationship between teamwork behaviors and affective commitment.

Book The Roles of Perceived Organizational Support and Anticipated Change in Organizational Support in Predicting Employee Affective Commitment and Well being

Download or read book The Roles of Perceived Organizational Support and Anticipated Change in Organizational Support in Predicting Employee Affective Commitment and Well being written by Jordan E. Kirkland and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organizational support theory (Eisenberger, Huntington, Hutchison, & Sowa, 1986; Eisenberger & Stinglhamber, 2011; Kurtessis et al., 2015) suggests that employees form perceptions of the extent to which their organization values them and cares about their well-being (i.e., perceived organizational support, or POS). Despite an abundance of research on POS, little research has examined organizational support from a future-oriented perspective. Given the changing nature of today’s business environment and the increasing need for employees to plan for potential job transitions, I argue that researchers should similarly increase our emphasis on employees’ perceptions of the future of their relationship with the organization. In the present study, I introduce the concept of anticipated change in organizational support (ACOS), or employees’ expectation that the level of support from the organization will change for better or for worse in the future. Two of my hypotheses received support: employees who expected that the organization would increase its support in the future demonstrated greater affective organizational commitment over and above the effect of POS. Further, ACOS moderated the relationship between POS and affective commitment, although the nature of the interaction was different than I predicted. Specifically, the relationship between POS and commitment became stronger at high levels of ACOS. However, neither the main effect of ACOS nor the interaction of POS and ACOS significantly contributed to satisfaction or well-being. The results have theoretical implications for current conceptualizations of organizational support, as well as practical implications for how organizations may enhance employee commitment by promoting anticipated support.

Book Perceived Organizational Support

Download or read book Perceived Organizational Support written by Robert Eisenberger and published by American Psychological Association (APA). This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's constantly changing work environment is fraught with job uncertainty, frequent mergers and acquisitions, and a general breakdown of trust between employer and employee. More than ever, it is critical for managers to proactively shift away from devaluing employees as marginal capital to empowering them as human capital. Perceived organizational support-employees' perception of how much an organization values their contribution and cares about their well-being-mutually benefits both employees and their organizations and is integral to sustainable employer–employee relationships. Using organizational support theory and evidence gathered from hundreds of studies, Eisenberger and Stinglhamber demonstrate how perceived organizational support affects employees' well-being, the positivity of their orientation toward the organization and work, and behavioral outcomes favorable to the organization. The authors illustrate these findings with employee experiences and strategic approaches of major organizations such as Southwest Airlines, Wal-Mart, Costco, and Google. Organizational psychologists, management consultants, managers, and graduate students will obtain a clear understanding of perceived organizational support and the practical knowledge needed to foster its development and positive outcomes.
