摘要

目的 本文旨在具体分析员工政治技能和个人声誉与工作场所和非工作场所结果的相互关系。本研究在分析员工政治技能和个人声誉的同时,进一步关注作为工作场所结果的绩效和职业发展,以及作为非工作场所结果的创业意向。研究采用调查法,以时滞的方式从巴基斯坦一个研究不足的新兴经济体中的纺织业员工处收集多源数据。此外,个人声誉的中介作用也得到了证实。因此,研究结果凸显了个人声誉在提高工作场所和非工作场所结果(如与政治技能相关的创业意向)方面的促进作用。研究局限性/影响尽管存在一些局限性,但本文为政治技能和间接互惠文献提供了理论意义。通过研究个人声誉在本文分析的主要关系中的中介作用,拓展了本文的重要理论贡献。实践意义组织应注重培养员工的政治技能,因为这些技能对于积累良好声誉至关重要,而良好声誉最终会带来绩效、职业发展和创业意向。组织应精心挑选员工,并实施辅导和指导计划,使员工掌握这些技能,最终使员工的个人目标与组织目标保持一致。本文是将员工政治技能与工作绩效、职业发展和创业意向具体联系起来的开创性研究之一,尤其是在巴基斯坦这个相对动荡和研究不足的环境中。本研究的另一个新颖之处在于将个人声誉作为本研究提出的主要关系的心理机制进行了调查。

Political skill and personal reputation: an analysis of workplace and entrepreneurial outcomes

Purpose

This paper aims to specifically analyze the interrelationships of employee political skill and personal reputation with both workplace and non-workplace outcomes. The study further focuses on performance and career development as workplace outcomes and entrepreneurial intentions as a non-workplace outcome, while analyzing employee political skill and personal reputation.

Design/methodology/approach

The study uses a survey method, where multi-source data were collected in a time-lagged fashion from the employees working in the textile sector in an under-researched emerging economy setting of Pakistan.

Findings

The findings establish that political skill is a significant predictor of employee job performance, career development and entrepreneurial intentions. Moreover, the mediating role of personal reputation was confirmed for the proposed relationships. Hence, the findings highlight the contributory role of personal reputation in the enhancement of workplace and non-workplace outcomes, such as entrepreneurial intentions linked to political skill.

Research limitations/implications

Despite some limitations, this paper offers theoretical implications both for political skill and indirect reciprocity literature. A vital theoretical contribution is extended by studying the mediating role of personal reputation in the main relationships analyzed in this paper. The scope of indirect reciprocity is expanded by identifying personal reputation as a vital mechanism for indirect reciprocity.

Practical implications

Organizations should focus on developing political skill amongst their employees, as these skills are salient for amassing a favorable reputation, that eventually leads to performance, career growth and development of entrepreneurial intentions. Organizations should put in place careful selection and coaching and mentoring programs that equip employees with such skills that eventually lead toward the alignment of employees’ personal goals and organizational goals. Employees, then, could focus on priming both organizational and personal goals.

Originality/value

This paper is one of the pioneering studies that specifically link employee political skill with job performance, career development and entrepreneurial intentions, especially in the relatively volatile and under-researched context of Pakistan. Another novelty of this research is the investigation of personal reputation as a psychological mechanism underlying the primary relationships proposed in this research.
