As the findings confirm, emotion-laden conflict compromises employees' propensities to assist co-workers because they believe that they cannot count on co-workers’ goodwill, which, as we theorize, is informed by their desire to protect their self-esteem. The extent to which employees derive joy from generating novel ideas subdues this process. This study points to a notable mechanism (low goodwill trust) by which emotion-based tensions translate into low voluntarism and how this process is disrupted by an intrinsic motivation for innovation.</p>","PeriodicalId":47349,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Administrative Sciences-Revue Canadienne Des Sciences De L Administration","volume":"40 4","pages":"425-440"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133301542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research has long overlooked contextual features of ostracism at work. Using an experimental vignette methodology (N = 312), we found that physical attractiveness was critical in determining the mechanism by which ostracism influenced OCBG. The victims' social anxiety served as a mediator through which ostracism influenced OCBG when the ostracizing group was deemed to be low on attractiveness. However, the negative direct effect between ostracism and OCBG was observed only when group attractiveness was high. Our findings have implications for understanding the interplay between victims' individual differences and the context in which workplace ostracism is manifested.</p>","PeriodicalId":47349,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Administrative Sciences-Revue Canadienne Des Sciences De L Administration","volume":"40 4","pages":"484-498"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114829846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We introduce two important but conceptually distinct, intellectual attribute constructs—human and social capital—as mechanisms that moderate the relationship. Survey data from 172 professional consultants in subsidiaries of multinational management consulting firms was empirically analyzed. This study confirms the importance of tacit knowledge creation capability for innovation and finds that explicit knowledge creation does not have substantial effects on innovation performance. Human capital has negative moderating effects on how tacit knowledge creation influences innovation performance, but it has a positive moderating effect on the relationship between explicit knowledge creation and innovation. The negative moderating effect of human capital appears stronger in the senior consultant groups. On the other hand, social capital has no moderating effects on knowledge creation capability and innovation.
