摘要

本研究旨在探讨原住民文化与员工效率之间的关系,以及任人唯亲如何在加纳国有企业(SOEs)中加强或削弱这种关系以响应员工效率。设计/方法/方法本研究采用定量方法,通过横断面调查收集加纳10家国有企业400名工人的数据。分析是通过使用描述性统计和层次回归技术完成的。研究结果表明,感恩是加纳国有企业的主要本土文化,而违规行为(旷工)并不占主导地位。此外,任人唯亲的做法也很普遍。研究发现,除尊重老人外,本土文化与员工效率呈负相关,任人唯亲强化了本土文化与员工效率的关系。本文通过提供经验证据,证明任人唯亲有效地加强了发展中国家本土文化与员工效率之间的关系,从而对文献做出了贡献。防止任人唯亲的战略应该是公共行政人员的重点,限制不利的土著文化做法的机制也应该是重点。

Indigenous cultures and employee efficiency: the moderating effect of cronyism in state-owned enterprises in Ghana
Purpose This paper examines the relationship between indigenous cultures and employee efficiency and how cronyism strengthens or weakens the relationship in the Ghanaian state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in response to the employee efficiency. Design/methodology/approach This study employs a quantitative approach by a cross-sectional survey to collect data from 400 workers in ten SOEs in Ghana. The analysis is done by using descriptive statistics and hierarchical regression techniques. Findings The findings indicate that showing gratitude is the predominant indigenous culture in the SOEs of Ghana while irregularity (absenteeism) is not dominant. Moreover, the practice of cronyism is high. It reveals that the indigenous cultures, except for respect for the elderly, relate negatively to employee efficiency, and cronyism strengthens the relationship between indigenous cultures and employee efficiency. Originality/value The paper contributes to the literature by providing empirical evidence that cronyism effectively strengthens the relationship between indigenous cultures and employee efficiency in a developing country. Strategies to discourage cronyism should be the key focus of public administrators, as well as mechanisms to limit the practice of adverse indigenous cultures.
