Does supporting employees' career adaptability lead to commitment, turnover, or both?
研究发现参与决策、自主性和上级职业支持能提升员工职业适应性,但职业适应性既增强组织承诺也增加离职意向,给管理带来两难。
Today, employees are encouraged to become more career-resilient and engage in career development activities to deal with changes in required knowledge, skills, and abilities, and to facilitate their mobility. This study found that participation in decision making (PDM) and autonomy, along with supervisory career support (information, advice, and encouragement), fostered this career adaptability. These practices were also positively associated with commitment and negatively with intentions to leave. However, career adaptability was positively associated with both commitment and intentions to leave, suggesting some unintended consequences for management approaches supporting career adaptability. Implications for research and practice are discussed. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
