摘要
目的本研究以德鲁克的生产力理论为基础,探讨中国信息技术(IT)行业在COVID-19大流行期间知识导向型领导力(KOL)与知识工作者绩效(KWP)之间的关系。此外,本研究还探讨了知识型领导力与组织绩效(OP)之间的直接联系,以及通过员工创造性工作行为(ECWB)和数字公民行为(DCB)所起到的中介作用。研究结果研究结果表明,KOL 对 KWP 有着显著而明显的影响。原创性/价值目前,在中国 IT 行业研究领域,尤其是在大流行病背景下,很少有实质性的实证研究来深入探讨 KOL、ECWB、DCB、KWP 和 OP 的影响。本研究通过实证研究 KOL、KWP 和组织绩效之间的关联,以及评估员工创造性工作行为和数字公民行为的中介机制,为该主题的现有文献做出了实质性贡献。
Enhancing organizational performance through knowledge-oriented leadership: the neglected role of employee creative work behavior and digital citizenship behavior in IT industry
Purpose
Drawing upon Drucker’s theory of productivity, this study proposes to examine the relationship between knowledge-oriented leadership (KOL) and knowledge worker performance (KWP) within the Chinese information technology (IT) industry during the COVID-19 pandemic. Further, this study examines the direct connection between KWP and organizational performance (OP), as well as mediated via employee creative work behavior (ECWB), and digital citizenship behavior (DCB).
Design/methodology/approach
The data for the research was collected from a sample size of 322 individuals working in the IT industry context in China, with varying levels of seniority (lower, middle and upper). The relationship was examined by employing Smart PLS 4 in a current study.
Findings
The study findings revealed a significant and conspicuous effect of KOL on KWP. The outcomes divulged the fact that KOL has a positive impact on the ECWB, and DCB improves the performance of knowledge workers, resulting in an overall augmentation in the organizational performance of the IT industry.
Originality/value
Presently, there exist a scarcity of substantial empirical studies to thoroughly examine the influence of KOL, ECWB, DCB, KWP and OP in the domain of Chinese IT industry research, particularly in the setting of the pandemic. The study makes a substantial contribution to the extant literature on the topic via empirically examining the association among KOL, KWP and organizational performance, as well as evaluating the mediation mechanism of both employee creative work behavior and digital citizenship behavior.
期刊介绍:
Kybernetes is the official journal of the UNESCO recognized World Organisation of Systems and Cybernetics (WOSC), and The Cybernetics Society.
The journal is an important forum for the exchange of knowledge and information among all those who are interested in cybernetics and systems thinking.
It is devoted to improvement in the understanding of human, social, organizational, technological and sustainable aspects of society and their interdependencies. It encourages consideration of a range of theories, methodologies and approaches, and their transdisciplinary links. The spirit of the journal comes from Norbert Wiener''s understanding of cybernetics as "The Human Use of Human Beings." Hence, Kybernetes strives for examination and analysis, based on a systemic frame of reference, of burning issues of ecosystems, society, organizations, businesses and human behavior.
