Abstract

BACKGROUND: Sharing of knowledge and positive workplace behavior by employees are perquisites for the success of every organization. The present study realized the significance of knowledge sharing and positive behavior in a country like India where high-power distance culture is prevalent. OBJECTIVE: The present research aimed to investigate the influence of abusive supervision on knowledge hiding and employee organizational deviance. In addition mediating roles negative affectivity and employee silence were alsotested. METHODS: Data was gathered from 420 employees working in a service organization in India. SPSS vs. 23 and Amos vs. 24 were used for data analysis purposes. The techniques of SEM were applied to test the proposed hypotheses in the present research. RESULTS: The study found the positive and significant influence of abusive supervision on knowledge hiding, but the insignificant influence of abusive supervision on employee organizational deviance. The results also reflected the full mediating role of negative affectivity but the partial intervening or mediating role of employee silence between the relationships of abusive supervision with knowledge hiding and employees’ organizational deviance. CONCLUSION: The study suggested the management introduce various measures to reduce abusive supervision leading to negative consequences.

虐待性监督与知识隐藏、组织偏差的关系研究:员工沉默和负性情感的中介作用

背景:员工分享知识和积极的工作行为是每个组织成功的先决条件。本研究意识到知识共享和积极行为在印度这样一个高权力距离文化盛行的国家的重要性。目的:本研究旨在探讨虐待性监督对知识隐藏和员工组织偏差的影响。此外，对消极情感和员工沉默的中介作用也进行了检验。方法:从印度一家服务机构的420名员工中收集数据。数据分析使用SPSS vs. 23和Amos vs. 24。应用扫描电镜技术验证了本研究中提出的假设。结果:研究发现，滥用监管对知识隐藏有正向显著影响，对员工组织偏差无显著影响。研究结果还反映出负向情感在辱骂性监督与知识隐藏的关系与员工组织偏差之间具有完全的中介作用，而员工沉默则起到部分的中介作用。结论:研究建议管理层采取多种措施，减少滥用监管导致的不良后果。

期刊介绍： Human Systems Management (HSM) is an interdisciplinary, international, refereed journal, offering applicable, scientific insight into reinventing business, civil-society and government organizations, through the sustainable development of high-technology processes and structures. Adhering to the highest civic, ethical and moral ideals, the journal promotes the emerging anthropocentric-sociocentric paradigm of societal human systems, rather than the pervasively mechanistic and organismic or medieval corporatism views of humankind’s recent past. Intentionality and scope Their management autonomy, capability, culture, mastery, processes, purposefulness, skills, structure and technology often determine which human organizations truly are societal systems, while others are not. HSM seeks to help transform human organizations into true societal systems, free of bureaucratic ills, along two essential, inseparable, yet complementary aspects of modern management: a) the management of societal human systems: the mastery, science and technology of management, including self management, striving for strategic, business and functional effectiveness, efficiency and productivity, through high quality and high technology, i.e., the capabilities and competences that only truly societal human systems create and use, and b) the societal human systems management: the enabling of human beings to form creative teams, communities and societies through autonomy, mastery and purposefulness, on both a personal and a collegial level, while catalyzing people’s creative, inventive and innovative potential, as people participate in corporate-, business- and functional-level decisions. Appreciably large is the gulf between the innovative ideas that world-class societal human systems create and use, and what some conventional business journals offer. The latter often pertain to already refuted practices, while outmoded business-school curricula reinforce this problematic situation.
