Abstract

ABSTRACT By acknowledging the role of assessing employees’ promotability in talent development and retention, along with the need to improve the understanding about its antecedents, this paper examines the impact of employees’ role breadth self-efficacy on this criterion. Specifically, it builds upon the integration of previous theoretical developments regarding the motivational virtues of role breadth self-efficacy at work, with the core assumptions of Spence’s signalling theory to empirically test whether innovative work behaviour acts as an underlying mechanism of the link between role breadth self-efficacy and promotability. Relying upon a time-lagged design with multisource data (employees and respective supervisors), evidence obtained from a sample of N = 185 software engineers supported the indirect effect of role breadth self-efficacy on supervisors’ ratings of employees’ promotability, via employees’ innovative work behaviour. The main theoretical and applied contributions of these findings are presented and discussed in the context of human resource management.

员工能否利用他们的角色广度自我效能感和创新工作行为来提高晋升前景？

摘要通过承认评估员工晋升能力在人才发展和留住中的作用，以及提高对其前因的理解的必要性，本文考察了员工角色广度自我效能感对这一标准的影响。具体而言，它建立在先前关于工作中角色广度自我效能动机美德的理论发展与Spence信号理论的核心假设相结合的基础上，以实证检验创新工作行为是否是角色宽度自我效能和可晋升性之间联系的潜在机制。根据多源数据（员工和各自的主管）的时滞设计，从N个样本中获得的证据 = 185名软件工程师支持角色广度自我效能感通过员工的创新工作行为对主管对员工晋升能力的评级产生间接影响。这些发现的主要理论和应用贡献是在人力资源管理的背景下提出和讨论的。
