Abstract

Introduction

Research on the behavioral antecedents of employee championing behavior lacks scholarly investigation. The current study aims to fill this gap by studying behavioral interventions as the antecedents of championing behavior.

Objective

The current study has proposed and tested a moderated mediation model that states that perceived opportunity to craft cultivates championing behavior among employees. This relation is mediated by job crafting, whereas employee willingness to exert extra effort invigorates this relationship.

Method

The current study is based on survey-based data collected in three-time lags from employees working in the IT sector organizations.

Results

The results supported the proposed model leading to the revelation that perceived opportunity to craft enhances championing behavior among employees through job crafting, and employee discretionary efforts moderate this indirect relationship.

Conclusion

The results prove that behavioral interventions play a significant role in predicting championing behavior, whereas discretionary effort acts as a boundary condition. The results of the current study offer several theoretical and practical insights, but it also has a few limitations. This study opens several future research avenues that are discussed in the end.

创新的冠军:工作制作和自由裁量努力的有调节的中介模型

引言关于员工支持行为的行为前因的研究缺乏学术调查。目前的研究旨在通过研究行为干预作为支持行为的前因来填补这一空白。目的当前的研究提出并测试了一个适度的中介模型，该模型指出，感知的手工艺机会培养了员工的支持行为。这种关系是由工作塑造来调节的，而员工愿意付出额外的努力则会激发这种关系。方法当前的研究基于在三个时间滞后内从IT部门组织工作的员工那里收集的基于调查的数据。结果研究结果支持了所提出的模型，揭示了感知到的手工艺机会通过工作手工艺增强了员工的支持行为，而员工的自主努力调节了这种间接关系。结论行为干预在预测支持行为中起着重要作用，而自主努力则是一个边界条件。目前的研究结果提供了一些理论和实践见解，但也有一些局限性。这项研究开辟了几个未来的研究途径，并在最后进行了讨论。
