Abstract

Purpose

Adopting an affective events perspective, our study investigates the relationship between perceived organizational politics (POP) and employee voice by exploring the mediating role of affect and the moderating role of supervisor political support.

Design/methodology/approach

The hypothesized model was tested with three-wave data collected from 393 full-time employees.

Findings

Results indicate that POP indirectly impacts employee voice through influencing positive and negative affect, and that supervisor political support moderates these indirect effects by moderating the relationship between POP and affective states.

Research limitations/implications

Survey data can hardly test the causal relationship. Effect of employees' POP could be further examined in the lens subjective positive experiences. Organizational politics might have positive meanings.

Practical implications

Our findings show that POP brings employees negative feelings and reduces their voice behaviors while supervisor political support can mitigate this inhibiting effect. Therefore, managers should learn how to use political behavior more reasonably in highly political work environment.

Originality/value

By highlighting the possibility that employees can be beneficiaries having a vested interest in political environment and investigating the unexplored affective explanatory mechanisms underlying the POP–voice relationship, this study provides new directions for future research on POP and employee voice.

感知到的组织政治和员工声音:情感和上司政治支持的作用
目的本研究采用情感事件视角,通过探讨情感的中介作用和主管政治支持的调节作用,研究了感知到的组织政治(POP)与员工声音之间的关系。结果结果表明,民意调查通过影响积极和消极情绪间接影响员工的声音,而主管的政治支持通过调节民意调查和情绪状态之间的关系来调节这些间接影响。可以从主观积极体验的角度进一步研究员工 POP 的影响。实践意义我们的研究结果表明,POP 会给员工带来负面情绪并减少他们的发声行为,而上司的政治支持可以减轻这种抑制作用。因此,管理者应学会如何在高度政治化的工作环境中更合理地使用政治行为。原创性/价值本研究通过强调员工可能成为政治环境中既得利益者的可能性,以及调查尚未探索的 POP 与员工声音关系背后的情感解释机制,为未来有关 POP 和员工声音的研究提供了新的方向。
