Workplace hurdles and innovative behavior: A meta-analysis
Many studies have assumed that workplace hurdles have uniform effects on innovative behavior and that motivational mechanisms are the key explanation. Guided by the conservation of resources theory, this study argues that different subgroups of workplace hurdles might relate to innovative behavior differently and that the mechanism underlying the relationship between workplace hurdles and innovative behavior can be informed by an organizational attachment perspective. Meta-analytical data from 544 samples (N = 188,572) showed that (a) social hurdles were more strongly and negatively related to innovative behavior than were task and organizational hurdles, (b) the absence of favorable conditions was more strongly and negatively related to innovative behavior than were proximal stressors, and (c) hindrance stressors were more strongly and negatively related to innovative behavior than were challenge stressors. The path analysis results also provide support for the proposed theoretical process: workplace hurdles weaken organizational attachment, which in turn lowers innovative behavior. Crucially, organizational attachment remained a significant mediator even when I controlled for the mediating effects of job and creative motivation. Moderator analyses showed that the study relationships were generally robust.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Vocational Behavior publishes original empirical and theoretical articles offering unique insights into the realms of career choice, career development, and work adjustment across the lifespan. These contributions are not only valuable for academic exploration but also find applications in counseling and career development programs across diverse sectors such as colleges, universities, business, industry, government, and the military.
The primary focus of the journal centers on individual decision-making regarding work and careers, prioritizing investigations into personal career choices rather than organizational or employer-level variables. Example topics encompass a broad range, from initial career choices (e.g., choice of major, initial work or organization selection, organizational attraction) to the development of a career, work transitions, work-family management, and attitudes within the workplace (such as work commitment, multiple role management, and turnover).
