And the Award for Best Actor Goes to...: Facades of Conformity in Organizational Settings
提出“顺从假面”概念,指员工假装接受组织价值观的虚假表现,并探讨其前因(如奖励制度、少数群体地位)和后果(心理与情绪困扰),对组织行为研究有理论启示。
Facades of conformity are false representations created by employees to appear as if they embrace organizational values. I present a conceptualization of the facades of conformity construct and propose that organizational reward systems, minority status, and self-monitoring are examples of variables likely to serve as antecedents to creating facades of conformity. I also propose that psychological and emotional distress are potential outcomes to facade creation. I conclude with a discussion of theoretical and practical implications for continued research on facade creation.
