When are organizational reforms perceived positively? An examination of the role of employees’ hierarchical level
研究检验了员工在组织中的层级如何影响其对改革的看法，发现高层员工普遍更认可改革，但不同类型改革存在差异。
The aim of this study is to theorize and test the implicit assumption in the literature that reform perceptions vary according to employees’ position in the organizational hierarchy. Our theoretical argument centres on the expectation that employees appreciate reforms differently depending on their position in the organization. Our large-scale analyses confirm that employees from upper organizational levels are more appreciative of reforms in general, though follow-up analyses on distinct types of reforms demonstrate variations with theoretical and practical implications.
