摘要
文章探讨了领导者建言采纳促进员工建言的理论基础、作用机制及其对发展建言研究的意义。通过引入个体心理的自组织目标系统理论,整合了员工建言研究的动机视角和认知视角,构建了建言的目标自组织观点。在此基础上,分析和检验了工作意义感和建言效能感在领导者建言采纳促进员工建言的关系中所起的中介作用。通过问卷调查收集了来自73位领导者与236位员工的纵向数据,结果显示:(1)领导者的建言采纳对员工的促进性/抑制性建言均具有显著的促进作用;(2)工作意义感和建言效能感在领导者建言采纳与员工建言行为的关系中起到完全中介作用。研究结果发展了对建言行为形成机制的认识,促进了建言研究的理论发展,并对管理实践有着积极的启示。
Extant literature has long documented the important role of employee voice behavior with such literature pointing to leadership as a vital antecedent to employee voice behavior.However,one relatively unexplored area in this stream or research is the understanding of,how leader’s voice endorsement affects employees’voice behavior.Prior studies have investigated the relationship between leader’s behavior and employee voice through a motivational theoretical perspective or a cognitive theoretical perspective.First,the voice literature has drawn on social exchange theory,conservation of resources theory and expectancy theory to explain how employee voice can be triggered through leader behavior that enhances employee motivation to voice.Second,the literature has also drawn on implicit voice theory,information processing theory,and social cognition theory to understand how the leader influences employee voice through a cognitive lens.However,this results in a fragmented literature with the need for an overarching theory that links these perspectives.Therefore,we provide an integrated framework through the self-organizing goal system theory of human psychology.In doing so,we develop a goal self-organization framework of employee voice behavior which integrates the cognitive and motivational approaches to voice.Based on this framework,how employees self-organize their goal system can function as the core mechanism that influences employee’s voice.Further,we explain how leader’s voice endorsement can promote employee voice using this framework.Empirically,we tested the hypotheses that both employee’s work meaningfulness and voice efficacy mediate the positive relationship between leader’s voice endorsement and employee’s promotive voice and prohibitive voice.A two-wave survey was conducted in an internet-based financial company operating in Tianjin and Zhejiang.We used existing,validated measures with Chinese questionnaires as well as the standard translation and back-translation procedures to assure item
