Abstract

Purpose

The study sought to investigate how servant leadership affects employees' organisational citizenship and innovative behaviour by emphasising the mediation role of psychological empowerment. Relying on social exchange and self-determination theories, the present research examined the associations between these key elements in organisational dynamics.

Design/methodology/approach

Two waves of data were obtained from 325 supervisor-subordinate dyads working for 15 nonprofit organisations.

Findings

The results uncovered a significant and positive connection between leaders with a strong servant mindset and employees' organisational citizenship and innovative behaviour. Psychological empowerment was found to serve as a mediator in the anticipated correlations. Cultivating leaders with an enduring servant attitude was found to significantly boost employees' organisational citizenship and innovation, supported by improved psychological empowerment.

Originality/value

This study is distinctive as it fills a gap in research on the relationships between servant leadership, psychological empowerment and work outcomes in the global nonprofit sector, particularly in the Eastern context. This disposition, when given the opportunity, will contribute to strengthening working productivity.

Abstract

Purpose

This study explores how emotional intelligence, customer orientation, deep acting and surface acting influence job satisfaction among middle managers in their interactions with customers, colleagues and business partners. By examining these factors, we aim to provide insights into their collective impact on job satisfaction and interpersonal dynamics within organizational contexts.

Design/methodology/approach

By involving 95 middle managers at Indonesian Internet service providers as respondents, this research used a questionnaire to collect data. Next, the data were analyzed using the partial least square-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) technique, which evaluated measurement models and structural models. A total of twelve hypotheses were tested in this study.

Findings

This study found that customer orientation does not have a significant effect on deep acting, thereby nullifying its indirect effect on job satisfaction. Conversely, it's demonstrated that both deep acting and surface acting serve as partial mediators in the relationship between emotional intelligence and job satisfaction. Furthermore, surface acting emerges as a partial mediator in the connection between customer orientation and job satisfaction.

Originality/value

By exploring the relationship between customer orientation, emotional intelligence and job satisfaction among employees, this study seeks to reveal novel insights. The study examines the impact of these critical elements, which are necessary for middle managers to effectively manage their emotions and cultivate significant connections, on their overall job satisfaction and interpersonal dynamics in their diverse responsibilities.

Abstract

Purpose

This study seeks to investigate how psychological capital (PsyCap), proactive personality and perceived organizational support (POS) influence organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) through the lens of meaning of work (MoW) within correctional institutions in the North Sumatra, Indonesia.

Design/methodology/approach

This study employed a quantitative approach involving 276 officers. Path analysis was conducted utilizing the partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) technique.

Findings

The ten-hypotheses testing showed that one hypothesis is not supported, specifically the effect of proactive personality on OCB. However, the indirect effects of PsyCap, POS and proactive personality on OCB through MoW were successfully proven.

Originality/value

The results of this study both reinforce and provide insights into how the MoW can contribute to OCB, particularly within the context of densely populated correctional facilities. It aims to fill a significant gap in the current body of knowledge and enhance our understanding of the key factors that influence the behavior of correctional officers in a challenging and complex environment.

Abstract

Purpose

This research seeks to reveal the mediating role of work engagement and affective commitment as individual aspects that have the potential to bridge the effect of empowering leadership on the task performance of Correctional Service counselors in Indonesia, especially due to the limited literature on these two aspects in the context of public organizations.

Design/methodology/approach

Quantitative research was conducted on 350 counselors throughout Indonesia. The data was collected by distributing questionnaires online. The collected data were then analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling to test the seven research hypotheses.

Findings

Empowering leadership significantly strengthens task performance, work engagement and affective commitment. For indirect effects, this study found that affective commitment partially mediates the effect of empowering leadership on task performance. Meanwhile, work engagement failed to act as a mediator because it did not significantly impact strengthening task performance.

Originality/value

Notably, the unexpected result of work engagement's inability to significantly boost task performance deviates from the prevailing trends observed in previous empirical research, thereby adding a novel dimension to the findings of this study.

Abstract

Purpose

Over the last few decades, electronic banking has been used widely to manage financial transactions worldwide. More recently electronic wallet (e-wallet) banking has been identified as an innovative mode of e-payment and enhances e-banking customer experience. Although e-wallet banking service is more secure, fast, convenient and cost effective, compared to conventional web-based banking, adoption of e-wallet application is limited among e-banking consumers. To address this issue, the current study has conceptualized task technology fit (TTF) model, diffusion of innovation (DOI) theory and protection motivation theory towards adoption of e-wallet service. Moreover, pandemic risk is studied as moderating factor between the relationship of e-wallet and use of e-wallet banking among banking consumers.

Design/methodology/approach

The research design of this study is based on positivism research paradigm. This study is cross-sectional and used deductive level of theory to formulate hypotheses. Research survey was conducted towards e-banking users. For statistical findings research framework is tested with 280 numerical responses. Data are estimated through partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach.

Findings

Statistical results demonstrates that collectively factors underpinned protection motivation theory, TTF and DOI have shown large variance R2 65.7% in adoption of e-wallet. The effect size f2 analysis has revealed that compatibility is one of the most influential factors in determining individual behavior to adopt e-wallet. Similarly, Geisser and Stone Q2 analysis has disclosed substantial predictive power to predict adoption and use of e-wallet service.

Practical implications

Theoretically, this study integrates protection motivation theory, DOI theory and TTF model toward adoption of e-wallet service and hence contributes to information system literature. To practice this, research has suggested that factors such as pandemic risk, perceived severity and compatibility are most influential factors and hence need policy makers' attention to boost e-wallet adoption.

Originality/value

This study is original as the study develops an integrative research model to investigate e-banking user behavior to adopt of e-wallet service. Moreover, pandemic risk is tested as moderating factor between adoption and use of e-wallet which, in turn, enhance the value of this study and directs how to deal with existing and future pandemic crisis.
