Abstract
Using the Job Demands-Resources theory, this study examines how organisational politics and self-concept affect women employees’ voice and workplace well-being (WWB). It employs an explanatory-sequential design, with study 1 (quantitative research, n = 463) using experimental vignettes and scale measures to test the hypotheses, followed by study 2 (qualitative research, n = 12) using in-depth interviews to explain the quantitative results. It was found that women's perceptions of organisational politics debilitated their WWB mediated by their voices. Furthermore, the “relational” self-concept moderated the mediated association, which reduced the negative impact. The study goes beyond the typical conception of work-family balance to provide strategies for improving women's work experiences.
期刊介绍：
IIMB Management Review (IMR) is a quarterly journal brought out by the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore. Addressed to management practitioners, researchers and academics, IMR aims to engage rigorously with practices, concepts and ideas in the field of management, with an emphasis on providing managerial insights, in a reader friendly format. To this end IMR invites manuscripts that provide novel managerial insights in any of the core business functions. The manuscript should be rigorous, that is, the findings should be supported by either empirical data or a well-justified theoretical model, and well written. While these two requirements are necessary for acceptance, they do not guarantee acceptance. The sole criterion for publication is contribution to the extant management literature.Although all manuscripts are welcome, our special emphasis is on papers that focus on emerging economies throughout the world. Such papers may either improve our understanding of markets in such economies through novel analyses or build models by taking into account the special characteristics of such economies to provide guidance to managers.
