Abstract

Public sector managers are increasingly subject to management controls. In this study, we determine how management controls in public sector organizations influence managers’ well-being at work. Based on central beliefs and concepts in the management control literature and self-determination theory, we develop, test, and confirm a theoretical model predicting that positive effects of management controls on public managers’ well-being are explained by increased role clarity and negative effects by increased control burden, which in turn affects managers’ self-determination. The model was tested through web survey responses from 1,029 managers from ten Swedish local government organizations. Our research contributes to the literature on well-being effects of management controls by specifying how positive and negative effects on managers’ well-being occur.

管理控制对公共管理人员福祉的影响
公共部门管理人员越来越受到管理控制。在这项研究中,我们确定了公共部门组织的管理控制如何影响管理者的工作幸福感。基于管理控制文献中的核心信念和概念以及自决理论,我们开发、测试并证实了一个理论模型,该模型预测管理控制对公共管理者幸福感的积极影响可以通过角色清晰度的提高来解释,而负面影响可以通过控制负担的增加来解释,这反过来又会影响管理者的自决。该模型通过来自瑞典十个地方政府组织的1029名管理人员的网络调查进行了测试。我们的研究通过具体说明对管理者幸福感的积极和消极影响是如何发生的,为管理控制的幸福感影响的文献做出了贡献。
