Abstract

Many professional managers are driven to achieve the bottom line to secure income, honor, and standing in the workplace. Drawing on social information processing theory, we propose that supervisor bottom-line mentality in the workplace has a dysfunctional effect on organizations. Specifically, supervisor bottom-line mentality will hinder subordinates’ perception of the meaning of work, which eventuates high employee withdrawal (turnover intention and work withdrawal behavior). We also verified that amoral management weakens the negative relationship between supervisor bottom-line mentality and meaning of work in the first-stage moderated mediation model. Additionally, the strength of the indirect effects of supervisor bottom-line mentality on turnover intention and work withdrawal behavior is weaker (stronger) when supervisors’ amoral management is high (low). Our hypothesized moderated mediation model is supported by 301 data points generated by a three-stage full-time staff member. Furthermore, we put forward important theoretical and practical implications according to the research.
逃离组织:研究主管的底线思维对员工退出的影响
许多职业经理人为了确保收入、荣誉和在职场中的地位,都会以实现底线为动力。借鉴社会信息处理理论,我们提出职场中的主管底线心态会对组织产生功能失调的影响。具体来说,主管的底线心态会阻碍下属对工作意义的感知,最终导致员工的高退缩率(离职意向和工作退缩行为)。我们还验证了,在第一阶段调节中介模型中,非道德管理削弱了主管底线心态与工作意义之间的负相关。此外,当主管的不道德管理程度高(低)时,主管底线心态对离职意向和工作退出行为的间接影响强度会减弱(增强)。我们假设的调节中介模型得到了一个三级全职工作人员产生的 301 个数据点的支持。此外,我们还根据研究结果提出了重要的理论和实践意义。
