Details:
The three major human resources management responsibilities are: attracting a quality workforce, developing a quality workforce, and maintaining a quality workforce.
Research the RSPS scenario with which you are familiar to identify a need for change.
Based on the Rancho Solano case studied earlier in the course, you have been selected to make changes to the RSPS subsystems most in need of change, as well as make the necessary human resources management decisions to bring about that change. Write a 1,250-1,500 word paper in which you address the following questions:
1
What one major organizational subsystem needs to be changed in RSPS? Justify your choice.
2
How will that subsystem change affect two other subsystems within the organization and how will you realign the total system?
3
How could you ensure the proposed change will satisfy any three stakeholders of RSPS?
4
How should RSPS
attract
,
develop
, and
maintain
the workforce required to bring about your proposed change?
Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about attracting a quality workforce to support the change: human resource planning, recruitment, or selection.
Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about how to develop a quality workforce to support the change: employee orientation, training and development, or performance appraisal.
Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about how to maintain a quality workforce to support the change: career development, work-life balance, compensation and benefits, employee retention and turnover, or labor-management relations.
Integrate a faith/worldview-based** component in the paper and make a clear connection on how it informs your management practices. (** As individuals, we all have a worldview, and that influences our decisions, values, and perceptions. It also affects how we manage people [or think they should be managed.] This requirement relates to your worldview, not of RSPS).
Include at least four academic references for this assignment to support your position. One of them should relate to the company discussed in your paper.
Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

Instructions
Writing Tips:
Writing skills are often a factor in employers’ decisions to hire and promote individuals. Furthermore, it is difficult to lead and motivate others without the ability to effectively communicate your message(s). Therefore, you are strongly encouraged to take this opportunity to strengthen your writing skills. Here are a few helpful tips regarding good writing practices:
Make a clear, linear presentation of ideas using paragraphs to organize ideas and denote transitions.
Watch out for common errors such as: lack of an apostrophe in possessive nouns, using slang terms or inappropriate jargon, excessive use of abbreviations, lack of parallel noun/pronouns (singular/plural), and beginning a sentence with “this” or “that” without offering a clear indication to what the term is referring.
Be careful not to confuse words that sound similar when spoken, such as affect/effect and their/there/they’re.
Proofread thoroughly. Employing the spell check function alone often results in missed errors (for example, using “manger” rather than “manager”).

48 Human Resource Management
Introduction
As described in Chapter 2, strategic HRM is a mindset that leads to strategic actions and reac-
tions, either in the form of overall or specifi c HR strategies or strategic behaviour on the part
of HR professionals. This chapter focuses on HR strategies and answers the following ques-
tions: What are HR strategies? What are the main types of overall HR strategies? What are the
main areas in which specifi c HR strategies are developed? What are the criteria for an effective
HR strategy? How should HR strategies be developed? How should HR strategies be
implemented?
What are HR strategies?
HR strategies set out what the organization intends to do about its human resource manage-
ment policies and practices and how they should be integrated with the business strategy and
each other. They are described by Dyer and Reeves (1995) as ‘internally consistent bundles of
human resource practices’. Richardson and Thompson (1999) suggest that:
A strategy, whether it is an HR strategy or any other kind of management strategy must
have two key elements: there must be strategic objectives (ie things the strategy is sup-
posed to achieve), and there must be a plan of action (ie the means by which it is pro-
posed that the objectives will be met).
The purpose of HR strategies is to articulate what an organization intends to do about its
human resource management policies and practices now and in the longer term, bearing in
mind the dictum of Fombrun et al (1984) that business and managers should perform well in
the present to succeed in the future. HR strategies aim to meet both business and human needs
in the organization.
HR strategies may set out intentions and provide a sense of purpose and direction, but they are
not just long-term plans. As Gratton (2000) commented: ‘There is no great strategy, only great
execution.’
Because all organizations are different, all HR strategies are different. There is no such thing as
a standard strategy and research into HR strategy conducted by Armstrong and Long (1994)
and Armstrong and Baron (2002) revealed many variations. Some strategies are simply very
general declarations of intent. Others go into much more detail. ...

The three major human resources management responsibilities are: attracting a quality workforce, developing a quality workforce, and maintaining a quality workforce.
Research the RSPS scenario with which you are familiar to identify a need for change.
Based on the Rancho Solano case studied earlier in the course, you have been selected to make changes to the RSPS subsystems most in need of change, as well as make the necessary human resources management decisions to bring about that change. Write a 1,250-1,500 word paper in which you address the following questions:
1
What one major organizational subsystem needs to be changed in RSPS? Justify your choice.
2
How will that subsystem change affect two other subsystems within the organization and how will you realign the total system?
3
How could you ensure the proposed change will satisfy any three stakeholders of RSPS?
4
How should RSPS
attract
,
develop
, and
maintain
the workforce required to bring about your proposed change?
Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about attracting a quality workforce to support the change: human resource planning, recruitment, or selection.
Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about how to develop a quality workforce to support the change: employee orientation, training and development, or performance appraisal.
Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about how to maintain a quality workforce to support the change: career development, work-life balance, compensation and benefits, employee retention and turnover, or labor-management relations.
Integrate a faith/worldview-based** component in the paper and make a clear connection on how it informs your management practices. (** As individuals, we all have a worldview, and that influences our decisions, values, and perceptions. It also affects how we manage people [or think they should be managed.] This requirement relates to your worldview, not of RSPS).
Include at least four academic references for this assignment to support your position. One of them should relate to the company discussed in your paper.
Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

InstructionsWriting TipsWriting skills are often a factor.docxmariuse18nolet
Instructions
Writing Tips:
Writing skills are often a factor in employers’ decisions to hire and promote individuals. Furthermore, it is difficult to lead and motivate others without the ability to effectively communicate your message(s). Therefore, you are strongly encouraged to take this opportunity to strengthen your writing skills. Here are a few helpful tips regarding good writing practices:
Make a clear, linear presentation of ideas using paragraphs to organize ideas and denote transitions.
Watch out for common errors such as: lack of an apostrophe in possessive nouns, using slang terms or inappropriate jargon, excessive use of abbreviations, lack of parallel noun/pronouns (singular/plural), and beginning a sentence with “this” or “that” without offering a clear indication to what the term is referring.
Be careful not to confuse words that sound similar when spoken, such as affect/effect and their/there/they’re.
Proofread thoroughly. Employing the spell check function alone often results in missed errors (for example, using “manger” rather than “manager”).

48 Human Resource Management
Introduction
As described in Chapter 2, strategic HRM is a mindset that leads to strategic actions and reac-
tions, either in the form of overall or specifi c HR strategies or strategic behaviour on the part
of HR professionals. This chapter focuses on HR strategies and answers the following ques-
tions: What are HR strategies? What are the main types of overall HR strategies? What are the
main areas in which specifi c HR strategies are developed? What are the criteria for an effective
HR strategy? How should HR strategies be developed? How should HR strategies be
implemented?
What are HR strategies?
HR strategies set out what the organization intends to do about its human resource manage-
ment policies and practices and how they should be integrated with the business strategy and
each other. They are described by Dyer and Reeves (1995) as ‘internally consistent bundles of
human resource practices’. Richardson and Thompson (1999) suggest that:
A strategy, whether it is an HR strategy or any other kind of management strategy must
have two key elements: there must be strategic objectives (ie things the strategy is sup-
posed to achieve), and there must be a plan of action (ie the means by which it is pro-
posed that the objectives will be met).
The purpose of HR strategies is to articulate what an organization intends to do about its
human resource management policies and practices now and in the longer term, bearing in
mind the dictum of Fombrun et al (1984) that business and managers should perform well in
the present to succeed in the future. HR strategies aim to meet both business and human needs
in the organization.
HR strategies may set out intentions and provide a sense of purpose and direction, but they are
not just long-term plans. As Gratton (2000) commented: ‘There is no great strategy, only great
execution.’
Because all organizations are different, all HR strategies are different. There is no such thing as
a standard strategy and research into HR strategy conducted by Armstrong and Long (1994)
and Armstrong and Baron (2002) revealed many variations. Some strategies are simply very
general declarations of intent. Others go into much more detail. ...

Organizational Behavior ManagementIntroduction
This case study is about a hospital, where the employees of the hospital, like doctors, nurses and any other medical staff have to deal with the patients. Normally the patients should be given the required level of consideration for which they have selected the hospital should. Management should also be concerned about the quality of the services which the medical staff of the hospital is delivering to the patients. In this hospital, there was a research which was conducted in order to evaluate the quality of the services which the hospital has delivered to the patients. It was found that the employee of the hospital were not delivering the services of optimal level to the patients. The patients have mentioned in their feedback that they have some concerns and doubts in their mind about the role of management and the commitment of the employees of the hospital with their jobs. The patients were not satisfied from the attitude of the management and the quality of services at hospitalExplain why the increase in the manager’s use of group behavior-based feedback is important.Significance of communication for quality of services
The quality of the services in the hospital can be improved by ensuring that all the communication channels in the organization are operating effectively and efficiently and there is no distortion in the flow of the information through these channels of communication from one medium to the other medium. The communication in an organization might be of different types. There might be the formal communication inside the organization while on the other hand there might be the informal communication in an organization. These two classes of the communication can be sub categorized in to the verbal communication and nonverbal communication (Griffin, 2011).
Many other factors can also play core role in ensuring the efficiency and the effectiveness of the communication system inside an organization. One factor which can be ignored while evaluating the results of this study is the “structure of the organizations”. There might be centralized structure in an organization while on the other hand their might be decentralized structure of an organization. The chain of communication in the centralization system might be long while on the other hand the length of the chain of the communication .

Institutional space as the value system determines what methods work and what behaviors are approved.
This study aimed to identify the relationship between organizational space (organizational structure,
corporate responsibility, corporate support and productivity management) with senior administration
identity of corporate managers of West Azerbaijan. 150 standardized questionnaires were distributed
among population and 100 questionnaires were returned to test hypotheses. According to normal data, the
Pearson correlation coefficient used to determine the type and extent of the relationship between the
variables. The results show there is a direct relationship between corporate responsibility, productivity
management, organizational support and corporate identity. However, a significant relationship between
the dimensions of organizational structure and corporate identity does not exist. So we suggest that serious
efforts should be made in General Offices in West Azerbaijan by exercising efficiently management and
developing appropriate organizational space (with respect to the liability of agents, productivity
management and organizational support) in order to improve organizational identity administration.
Managing Organizational Change Final DraftJames Smith
The document discusses organizational change and the role of industrial-organizational (I/O) psychologists in managing change. It addresses key factors needed for successful change, including buy-in from leaders, employee engagement, and aligning stakeholder values. Research trends in organizational psychology are examined, focusing on topics like workgroup emotional climate and the role of discourse in strategic change. Theoretical frameworks on change include the importance of employee engagement and values alignment. The role of I/O psychologists is to consult organizations and develop interventions targeting areas needing development, and coach leaders to institutionalize lasting changes. Recommendations include using employee empowerment strategies and aligning management and stakeholder values to drive strategic change.
Managerial psychology is a sub-discipline of industrial and organizational psychology, which focuses on the efficacy of individuals, groups and organizations in the workplace. It's purpose is to specifically aid managers in gaining a better understanding of the psychological patterns common among individuals and groups within any given organisation. Managerial psychology can be used to predict and prevent harmful psychological patterns within the workplace and can also be implemented to control psychological patterns among individuals and groups in a way that will benefit the organisation long term.

This study examined how feedback orientation moderates the relationship between supervisor feedback environment and employee empowerment. The authors found that:
1) A positive supervisor feedback environment was directly related to increased feelings of meaning and impact in employees over time, but not competence or self-determination.
2) An employee's feedback orientation moderated the effect of supervisor feedback environment on feelings of meaning, competence, and self-determination over time. For employees with high feedback orientation, a positive feedback environment strengthened these relationships, but weakened them for employees with low feedback orientation.
3) Feedback orientation is an important individual difference that supervisors should consider when trying to foster empowerment through their feedback environment practices. A one-

FREEDOM AT WORK: PSYCHOLOGICAL EMPOWERMENT
AND SELF-LEADERSHIP
John H. Wilson
Regent University
ABSTRACT
In spite of much conceptual work, there is a paucity of empirical research into the
relationship between the constructs of psychological empowerment and self-leadership. This study
examined whether employee psychological empowerment perceptions are related to employee
engagement in behavioral and natural rewards self-leadership strategies, and whether these
relationships are strengthened for employees with an internal locus of control. The findings
demonstrated a significant positive relationship between psychological empowerment and both
behavioral and natural rewards self-leadership strategies. Further, internal locus of control was
found to moderate this relationship in regards to behavioral self-leadership strategies, but not
natural rewards self-leadership.
Keywords: Psychological Empowerment, Self-Leadership, Locus of Control, Organizational Leadership
INTRODUCTION
In recent years, there has been much interest in the extant literature about psychological
empowerment, employee assessments about their autonomy in task performance rather than mere
choices about how to accomplish assigned tasks (Bordin, Bartram, & Casimir, 2007; Spreitzer,
1995; Thomas & Velthouse, 1990). Psychological empowerment differs from role empowerment,
also called environmental empowerment, which relates to the effort on the part of organizational
executives, to transfer some choices or decision making power from managers to operational-
level employees (Labianca, Gray, & Brass, 2000; Logan & Ganster 2007; Meyerson & Kline,
2008). Therefore, role empowerment deals more with granting decision making power and
access to resources, while psychological empowerment focuses on the degree that an individual
perceives they are empowered.
Prominent authors in the field of empowerment have asserted that self-leadership
behaviors are the critical element for effective results in autonomous work environs described in
empowerment models (Carson & King, 2005; Houghton & Yoho, 2005; Manz, 1992). For
instance, DiLiello and Houghton (2006) suggested that self-leadership has much potential for
aiding organizations in responding to new challenges in the 21st century. Likewise, Carson and
King (2005) suggested, “empowerment and self leadership are avenues to influence and or
improve direction and motivation within organizations by placing greater emphasis on employee
mindset and skill development for each individual in the workplace” (p. 1050). Individuals who
display self-leadership will seek ways to direct their own activities through behavioral strategies,
through natural reward drawn from their work, and through cognitive thought strategies. (Manz
& Sims, 1980; Sims & Manz, 1995). The inducement towards empowerment p.
This document summarizes a study that examined the relationship between hospital managers' leadership adaptability scores and subordinate job satisfaction. 240 subordinates from hospitals in the southern US participated. The study used Hersey's Situational Leadership Model and Spector's Job Satisfaction Scale. Results found the most common leadership styles were selling and delegating. Participants rated contingent reward as most important for job satisfaction. 60% reported managers had low leadership adaptability scores, while 10% reported high scores and 30% reported moderate scores. The purpose was to examine this relationship to provide recommendations for improving job satisfaction.

Self-Assessment Tests (FROM TOPIC 2THAT I TOOK) THIS IS FYI WHE.docxbagotjesusa
Self-Assessment Tests (FROM TOPIC 2THAT I TOOK) THIS IS FYI WHEN YOU GET TO PART 2 OF THE ASSIGMENT
This week I took the following self-assessments tests which caused me to reflect on myself. I took:
1. Emotional Intelligence Assessment: Emotional Intelligence
2. Personality Assessment: Personality Traits Learning Styles Assessments: The VARK Questionnaire: How Do I Learn Best?
3. Values Assessment: Values Profile: Values Assessment: Rokeach Values Survey: Diversity Assessment: Cultural Competence Self-Test:
4. Values Assessment: Values Profile
5. Values Assessment: Rokeach Values Survey
I was pleased with my emotional IQ assessment results, the results that I received were that I was the type of person that could face obstacles and still stay focused. Although I may face obstacles I can stay focused and complete whatever I am assigned to do even when it is tough. I am the type of person that will try to focus on the big picture and I am always thinking of others and what I can do to make things better. My results were not surprising to me because I have mostly worked in leadership roles where I had to train, motivate, and encourage others to do their job. What this test result did for me was to push me to be better a leader, a conscious leader. The personality assessment showed that I was more of an introvert than an extrovert. Although I love being with people, I enjoy spending most of my quality time with close family and friends instead of large groups. I also like my quiet time and can get more done when it is quiet. The results from The VARK learning styles showed that I use different strategies or materials to learn something. I agree with that assessment because I have experienced this in my own personal life. Some things I may have catch on quicker to by reading whereas in learning something else I may be a hands-on person or a person that must watch it and then do it. What I learned is that people learn in different ways and there is nothing wrong with that. When I train people for a job, I go by how they learn and not just by how I learned it. I teach them differently, depending on the persons need, I am very open to change and doing things another way. The personal values test showed that I am loyal, caring, compassionate, and trustworthy. I believe that these are true about myself and they would represent the type of leader that I am.

Master's Thesis MSc BA - O&MC, Marc HaakmaMarc Haakma
This document provides a literature review and background for a study examining the impact of performance appraisals on intrinsic employee motivation in a public sector organization. The study will apply stewardship theory, which posits that employee motivation is intrinsic and goals are aligned with the organization. Prior research found intrinsic motivation is more important for public sector employees. The study aims to contribute to the field of management control by examining how a key control mechanism, performance appraisals, relates to intrinsic motivation. Hypotheses will be developed and tested through research in a public organization to determine if results confirm stewardship theory perspectives.

This document summarizes an empirical study on the factors that affect employee motivation and their relationship with job performance. The study was conducted on employees studying at a private university in Karachi, Pakistan. The main findings revealed that positive work environment, opportunities for career growth, alignment of skills with job responsibilities, and competitive benefit packages positively impact employee motivation and job performance. The study used a survey to collect data on motivation factors from employees. Descriptive statistics from the survey responses showed that intrinsic and extrinsic rewards both influence motivation levels. Maintaining high motivation is important for organizations to achieve their goals.

Organizational Behavior ManagementIntroduction
This case study is about a hospital, where the employees of the hospital, like doctors, nurses and any other medical staff have to deal with the patients. Normally the patients should be given the required level of consideration for which they have selected the hospital should. Management should also be concerned about the quality of the services which the medical staff of the hospital is delivering to the patients. In this hospital, there was a research which was conducted in order to evaluate the quality of the services which the hospital has delivered to the patients. It was found that the employee of the hospital were not delivering the services of optimal level to the patients. The patients have mentioned in their feedback that they have some concerns and doubts in their mind about the role of management and the commitment of the employees of the hospital with their jobs. The patients were not satisfied from the attitude of the management and the quality of services at hospitalExplain why the increase in the manager’s use of group behavior-based feedback is important.Significance of communication for quality of services
The quality of the services in the hospital can be improved by ensuring that all the communication channels in the organization are operating effectively and efficiently and there is no distortion in the flow of the information through these channels of communication from one medium to the other medium. The communication in an organization might be of different types. There might be the formal communication inside the organization while on the other hand there might be the informal communication in an organization. These two classes of the communication can be sub categorized in to the verbal communication and nonverbal communication (Griffin, 2011).
Many other factors can also play core role in ensuring the efficiency and the effectiveness of the communication system inside an organization. One factor which can be ignored while evaluating the results of this study is the “structure of the organizations”. There might be centralized structure in an organization while on the other hand their might be decentralized structure of an organization. The chain of communication in the centralization system might be long while on the other hand the length of the chain of the communication .

Institutional space as the value system determines what methods work and what behaviors are approved.
This study aimed to identify the relationship between organizational space (organizational structure,
corporate responsibility, corporate support and productivity management) with senior administration
identity of corporate managers of West Azerbaijan. 150 standardized questionnaires were distributed
among population and 100 questionnaires were returned to test hypotheses. According to normal data, the
Pearson correlation coefficient used to determine the type and extent of the relationship between the
variables. The results show there is a direct relationship between corporate responsibility, productivity
management, organizational support and corporate identity. However, a significant relationship between
the dimensions of organizational structure and corporate identity does not exist. So we suggest that serious
efforts should be made in General Offices in West Azerbaijan by exercising efficiently management and
developing appropriate organizational space (with respect to the liability of agents, productivity
management and organizational support) in order to improve organizational identity administration.
Managing Organizational Change Final DraftJames Smith
The document discusses organizational change and the role of industrial-organizational (I/O) psychologists in managing change. It addresses key factors needed for successful change, including buy-in from leaders, employee engagement, and aligning stakeholder values. Research trends in organizational psychology are examined, focusing on topics like workgroup emotional climate and the role of discourse in strategic change. Theoretical frameworks on change include the importance of employee engagement and values alignment. The role of I/O psychologists is to consult organizations and develop interventions targeting areas needing development, and coach leaders to institutionalize lasting changes. Recommendations include using employee empowerment strategies and aligning management and stakeholder values to drive strategic change.
Managerial psychology is a sub-discipline of industrial and organizational psychology, which focuses on the efficacy of individuals, groups and organizations in the workplace. It's purpose is to specifically aid managers in gaining a better understanding of the psychological patterns common among individuals and groups within any given organisation. Managerial psychology can be used to predict and prevent harmful psychological patterns within the workplace and can also be implemented to control psychological patterns among individuals and groups in a way that will benefit the organisation long term.

This study examined how feedback orientation moderates the relationship between supervisor feedback environment and employee empowerment. The authors found that:
1) A positive supervisor feedback environment was directly related to increased feelings of meaning and impact in employees over time, but not competence or self-determination.
2) An employee's feedback orientation moderated the effect of supervisor feedback environment on feelings of meaning, competence, and self-determination over time. For employees with high feedback orientation, a positive feedback environment strengthened these relationships, but weakened them for employees with low feedback orientation.
3) Feedback orientation is an important individual difference that supervisors should consider when trying to foster empowerment through their feedback environment practices. A one-

FREEDOM AT WORK: PSYCHOLOGICAL EMPOWERMENT
AND SELF-LEADERSHIP
John H. Wilson
Regent University
ABSTRACT
In spite of much conceptual work, there is a paucity of empirical research into the
relationship between the constructs of psychological empowerment and self-leadership. This study
examined whether employee psychological empowerment perceptions are related to employee
engagement in behavioral and natural rewards self-leadership strategies, and whether these
relationships are strengthened for employees with an internal locus of control. The findings
demonstrated a significant positive relationship between psychological empowerment and both
behavioral and natural rewards self-leadership strategies. Further, internal locus of control was
found to moderate this relationship in regards to behavioral self-leadership strategies, but not
natural rewards self-leadership.
Keywords: Psychological Empowerment, Self-Leadership, Locus of Control, Organizational Leadership
INTRODUCTION
In recent years, there has been much interest in the extant literature about psychological
empowerment, employee assessments about their autonomy in task performance rather than mere
choices about how to accomplish assigned tasks (Bordin, Bartram, & Casimir, 2007; Spreitzer,
1995; Thomas & Velthouse, 1990). Psychological empowerment differs from role empowerment,
also called environmental empowerment, which relates to the effort on the part of organizational
executives, to transfer some choices or decision making power from managers to operational-
level employees (Labianca, Gray, & Brass, 2000; Logan & Ganster 2007; Meyerson & Kline,
2008). Therefore, role empowerment deals more with granting decision making power and
access to resources, while psychological empowerment focuses on the degree that an individual
perceives they are empowered.
Prominent authors in the field of empowerment have asserted that self-leadership
behaviors are the critical element for effective results in autonomous work environs described in
empowerment models (Carson & King, 2005; Houghton & Yoho, 2005; Manz, 1992). For
instance, DiLiello and Houghton (2006) suggested that self-leadership has much potential for
aiding organizations in responding to new challenges in the 21st century. Likewise, Carson and
King (2005) suggested, “empowerment and self leadership are avenues to influence and or
improve direction and motivation within organizations by placing greater emphasis on employee
mindset and skill development for each individual in the workplace” (p. 1050). Individuals who
display self-leadership will seek ways to direct their own activities through behavioral strategies,
through natural reward drawn from their work, and through cognitive thought strategies. (Manz
& Sims, 1980; Sims & Manz, 1995). The inducement towards empowerment p.
This document summarizes a study that examined the relationship between hospital managers' leadership adaptability scores and subordinate job satisfaction. 240 subordinates from hospitals in the southern US participated. The study used Hersey's Situational Leadership Model and Spector's Job Satisfaction Scale. Results found the most common leadership styles were selling and delegating. Participants rated contingent reward as most important for job satisfaction. 60% reported managers had low leadership adaptability scores, while 10% reported high scores and 30% reported moderate scores. The purpose was to examine this relationship to provide recommendations for improving job satisfaction.

Self-Assessment Tests (FROM TOPIC 2THAT I TOOK) THIS IS FYI WHE.docxbagotjesusa
Self-Assessment Tests (FROM TOPIC 2THAT I TOOK) THIS IS FYI WHEN YOU GET TO PART 2 OF THE ASSIGMENT
This week I took the following self-assessments tests which caused me to reflect on myself. I took:
1. Emotional Intelligence Assessment: Emotional Intelligence
2. Personality Assessment: Personality Traits Learning Styles Assessments: The VARK Questionnaire: How Do I Learn Best?
3. Values Assessment: Values Profile: Values Assessment: Rokeach Values Survey: Diversity Assessment: Cultural Competence Self-Test:
4. Values Assessment: Values Profile
5. Values Assessment: Rokeach Values Survey
I was pleased with my emotional IQ assessment results, the results that I received were that I was the type of person that could face obstacles and still stay focused. Although I may face obstacles I can stay focused and complete whatever I am assigned to do even when it is tough. I am the type of person that will try to focus on the big picture and I am always thinking of others and what I can do to make things better. My results were not surprising to me because I have mostly worked in leadership roles where I had to train, motivate, and encourage others to do their job. What this test result did for me was to push me to be better a leader, a conscious leader. The personality assessment showed that I was more of an introvert than an extrovert. Although I love being with people, I enjoy spending most of my quality time with close family and friends instead of large groups. I also like my quiet time and can get more done when it is quiet. The results from The VARK learning styles showed that I use different strategies or materials to learn something. I agree with that assessment because I have experienced this in my own personal life. Some things I may have catch on quicker to by reading whereas in learning something else I may be a hands-on person or a person that must watch it and then do it. What I learned is that people learn in different ways and there is nothing wrong with that. When I train people for a job, I go by how they learn and not just by how I learned it. I teach them differently, depending on the persons need, I am very open to change and doing things another way. The personal values test showed that I am loyal, caring, compassionate, and trustworthy. I believe that these are true about myself and they would represent the type of leader that I am.

Master's Thesis MSc BA - O&MC, Marc HaakmaMarc Haakma
This document provides a literature review and background for a study examining the impact of performance appraisals on intrinsic employee motivation in a public sector organization. The study will apply stewardship theory, which posits that employee motivation is intrinsic and goals are aligned with the organization. Prior research found intrinsic motivation is more important for public sector employees. The study aims to contribute to the field of management control by examining how a key control mechanism, performance appraisals, relates to intrinsic motivation. Hypotheses will be developed and tested through research in a public organization to determine if results confirm stewardship theory perspectives.

An Empirical Study On The Factors That Affect Employee Motivation And Their R...Sandra Long
This document summarizes an empirical study on the factors that affect employee motivation and their relationship with job performance. The study was conducted on employees studying at a private university in Karachi, Pakistan. The main findings revealed that positive work environment, opportunities for career growth, alignment of skills with job responsibilities, and competitive benefit packages positively impact employee motivation and job performance. The study used a survey to collect data on motivation factors from employees. Descriptive statistics from the survey responses showed that intrinsic and extrinsic rewards both influence motivation levels. Maintaining high motivation is important for organizations to achieve their goals.

For the following question(s): A school counselor tests the level of depression in fourth graders in a particular class of 20 students. The counselor wants to know whether the kind of students in this class differs from that of fourth graders in general at her school. On the test, a score of 10 indicates severe depression, while a score of 0 indicates no depression. From reports, she is able to find out about past testing. Fourth graders at her school usually score 5 on the scale, but the variation is not known. Her sample of 20 fifth graders has a mean depression score of 4.4. Use the .01 level of significance.
1.
The counselor calculates the unbiased estimate of the population’s variance to be 15. What is the variance of the distribution of means?

Structural and Psychological Empowerment Climates,
Performance, and the
Moderating Role of Shared Felt Accountability: A Managerial
Perspective

The authors proposed and tested a model in which data were
collected from managers (n � 539) at 116
corporate-owned quick service restaurants to assess the
structural and psychological empowerment
process as moderated by shared-felt accountability on indices of
performance from a managerial
perspective. The authors found that empowering leadership
climate positively relates to psychological
empowerment climate. In turn, psychological empowerment
climate relates to performance only under
conditions of high-felt accountability; it does not relate to
performance under conditions of low-felt
accountability. Overall, the present results indicate that the
quick-service restaurant managers, who feel
more empowered, operate restaurants that perform better than
managers who feel less empowered, but
only when those empowered managers also feel a high sense of
accountability.
Keywords: empowerment, leadership, accountability,
performance, climate
The organizational empowerment literature differentiates em-
powerment as either structural or psychological in form
(Ahearne, Mathieu, & Rapp, 2005; Mathieu, Gilson, & Ruddy,
2006; Spreitzer, 1995). With strong roots in the work design
literature (Hackman & Oldham, 1976; Parker, Wall, & Cordery,
2001), structural empowerment refers to the delegation of au-
thority and responsibility to employees (e.g., leadership; Leach,
Wall, & Jackson, 2003; Mathieu et al., 2006) and has been
linked empirically with constructs of interest across multiple
5. levels of analysis (e.g., G. Chen, Kirkman, Kanfer, Allen, &
Rosen, 2007; Seibert, Silver, & Randolph, 2004). Psychological
empowerment is characterized as a four-dimensional psycho-
logical state consisting of (a) meaningfulness, (b) competence,
(c) self-determination, and (d) impact (Conger & Kanungo,
1988; Spreitzer, 1995, 1996). Unlike structural empowerment,
psychological empowerment uses social information processing
as the theoretical underpinning. As a result, psychological em-
powerment has been shown to transform individual behaviors
above and beyond the capabilities of structural empowerment
alone (e.g., peer helping, supportive relationships; Corsun &
Enz, 1999; Parker et al., 2001). To date, however, no research
has examined the collective construct of psychological empow-
erment (i.e., aggregated composite of meaningfulness, compe-
tence, self-determination, and impact)—what we term psycho-
logical empowerment climate—and how such a construct might
operate in organizational contexts.
Existing research has demonstrated the positive aspects of
empowerment, but what if empowered employees do not feel
accountable, how might this condition influence subsequent
performance? This rather practical question has far-reaching
implications as performance may suffer if employees misuse
their sense of empowerment. Accountability facilitates order in
the workplace by creating awareness of answerable tasks, meth-
ods for task achievement, as well as clarifying evaluation
methods and agents (Breaux, Munyon, Hochwater, & Ferris,
2009). Hence, accountability appears to be a critical boundary
condition in the empowerment process: Employees are empow-
ered and maintain engagement in their jobs due to higher levels
of felt accountability. Testing this boundary condition is the
primary objective of the present research. Overall, we examined
in the present study the extent to which shared managerial
perceptions of psychological empowerment are related to indi-
ces of effectiveness beyond empowering leadership, while also

demonstrating the importance of accountability as a moderator
of this relationship (see Figure 1).
Empowering Leadership and Psychological
Empowerment Climate
Climates are collective constructs (Morgeson & Hofmann, 1999)
in
which ambient stimuli serve as a source of information that
signal the
appropriateness of member behaviors (Hackman, 1992).
According to
Morgeson and Hofmann (1999), “any given collective can be
viewed
as a series of ongoing, events, and event cycles between the
compo-
nent parts (e.g., individuals)” (p. 252). These event cycles
within a
given collective form a unique foundation for the emergence of
the
collective construct, which in turn leads to persistence of the
collec-
tive construct that ultimately shapes collective action via social
infor-
mation processing (Morgeson & Hofmann, 1999). Barker (1993)
provides evidence to support this chain of events for customer
service
12. in that a newly codified and strengthened norm for service
signifi-
cantly related to service behavior among the collective’s
members.
This notion that collective constructs “emerge from interaction
and
can, over time, come to influence systems of interaction”
(Morgeson
& Hofmann, 1999, p. 262) is the basis for the influence of
climate in
organizations.
Previous research has supported relationships between cli-
mate and performance for various climate types (e.g., service,
safety; Patterson, Warr, & West, 2004; Zohar, 2000, 2002).
With regard to empowerment, Seibert et al. (2004) found that a
leadership-based empowerment climate directly and positively
related to group performance, whereas individual psychological
empowerment mediated its cross-level relationship with indi-
vidual performance. Other researchers have found positive re-
lationships between leadership-based empowerment climate
and task performance (Tuuli & Rowlinson, 2009), whereas
others have shown that employees’ resistance to empowerment
climate (i.e., rejecting empowerment) negatively relates to per-
formance (Maynard, Mathieu, Marsh, & Ruddy, 2007). Al-
though there is evidence that leadership-based empowerment
climate relates to important organizational outcomes, research
has yet to explicate fully the theoretical and empirical role that
shared psychological empowerment climate might play in this
process.
Empowerment is isomorphic (G. Chen et al., 2007; Kirkman
& Rosen, 1999; Spreitzer, 1996) in that it retains the same
meaning and function across levels of analysis (i.e., individual,
group; G. Chen, Bliese, & Mathieu, 2005; Klein & Kozlowski,
13. 2000). James and colleagues (2008) stated, “Shared perceptual
agreement at the individual level of analysis in climate research
provides the meaning of the construct at a higher level of
analysis” (p. 17). Integrating this notion of shared psychologi-
cal constructs with the isomorphic nature of the psychological
framework of empowerment (Spreitzer, 1995), we conceptual-
ize psychological empowerment climate as shared psychologi-
cal perceptions of empowerment related to meaningfulness,
competence, self-determination, and impact. Though we opera-
tionalize this construct as psychological empowerment climate
as experienced by managers (our sample consists of managers),
we refer to the construct as psychological empowerment cli-
mate in the present article.
Psychological empowerment climate is distinct from team
empow-
erment and empowering leadership (or structural
empowerment).
Team empowerment has been defined as “team members’
collective
belief that they have the authority to control their proximal
work
environment and are responsible for their team’s functioning”
(Mat-
hieu et al., 2006, p. 98). Although the team empowerment
construct is
important to study in teams, it may not adequately capture the
shared
psychological perceptions of empowerment in more loosely
orga-
nized collectives, which are common in organizations. This is a
particularly salient point in the present study, as our sample
does not
include organizationally structured teams; rather, it is composed
of
managers in a given location. Because team empowerment limits
14. itself to teams, we focused on psychological empowerment
climate as
a broader conceptualization using managerial collectives in a
given
location (i.e., restaurant).
Seibert et al. (2004) defined empowerment climate as “employ-
ees’ shared perceptions of managerial structures, policies, and
practices related to empowerment” (p. 333). This
operationaliza-
tion and measurement of empowerment climate does not capture
the shared psychological aspects of empowerment that
psycholog-
ical climates purport to capture (i.e., feeling empowered; James
et
al., 2008); rather, it captures structural aspects of empowerment
stemming from organizational leadership (Seibert et al., 2004,
p.
338). G. Chen et al. (2007) suggested that the notion of empow-
erment climate as presented by Seibert et al. (2004) is highly
consistent with Kirkman and Rosen’s (1999) empowering
leader-
ship behaviors, which depicts the structural component of
empow-
erment. In fact, G. Chen et al. (2007) integrated Kirkman and
Rosen’s (1999) and Seibert et al.’s (2004) work and used the
term
Figure 1. Theoretical model of hypothesized relationships.

“empowering leadership climate”1 in their study (p. 333).
Seibert
et al. (2004) also demonstrated via factor analysis that
empowering
leadership climate is distinct from psychological empowerment.
Thus, empowering leadership climate and psychological empow-
erment climate are theoretically and empirically distinct from
each
other, with the former measuring structural empowerment and
the
latter measuring psychological empowerment. Despite being
dis-
tinct constructs, empowering leadership is a likely antecedent to
psychological empowerment climate (cf. Zhang & Bartol, 2010).
Theory and research (e.g., Bowen & Ostroff, 2004; G. Chen et
al., 2007; Ostroff, Kinicki, & Tamkins, 2003; Zohar, 2000,
2002;
Zohar & Tenne-Gazit, 2008) demonstrate that leadership is
ante-
cedent to climate, which has been explained via engagement in
the
social learning process wherein unit members observe, interact,
and codify norms on the basis of leader behavior that develops
into
a common understanding of that behavior (i.e., climate for
20. some-
thing; Dragoni, 2005; Morgeson & Hofmann, 1999; Zohar &
Tenne-Gazit, 2008). In a similar fashion, psychological
empower-
ment climate likely develops from empowering leadership
(Menon, 2001) by providing the necessary conditions for feeling
empowered. The empowering leader implements policies, prac-
tices, and procedures with the objective of empowering
collective
members, which results in members sharing a perception of
being
empowered (in our case, store and assistant managers in a given
restaurant). This relationship is due to the leader (a) assisting
members to understand their work, thereby enhancing the mean-
ingfulness of work, (b) expressing confidence in members’
ability
to complete tasks, (c) providing autonomy by encouraging mem-
bers to decide how to carry out work, and (d) encouraging mem-
bers to participate in decision making (Manz & Sims, 1987;
Sims
& Manz, 1994; Zhang & Bartol, 2010). As such, shared percep-
tions of psychological empowerment are partially driven by unit
leaders and partially result from a social learning process
among
unit members. In this process, ambient stimuli, social cues, and
explicit information generate shared feelings of psychological
em-
powerment, which strengthens over repeated cycles of
interaction.
This relationship has been found at the individual level (Zhang
&
Bartol, 2010) and crossing hierarchical levels (Z. Chen, Lam, &
Zhong, 2007; Seibert et al., 2004), but it has not been examined
from a managerial perspective. This relationship also
constitutes
an important piece of our model. Hence, our first hypothesis:
21. Hypothesis 1 (H1): Empowering leadership climate positively
relates to psychological empowerment climate.
Psychological Empowerment Climate and Performance
Psychological empowerment climate fosters empowerment-
related behaviors and outcomes via social learning. Social
learning
theory proposes that individuals model their own behavior
through
observation of salient environmental stimuli, particularly the
be-
havior of others such as leaders and colleagues (Bandura, 1986).
In
this case, psychological empowerment climate acts as a source
of
salient stimuli, which is interpreted and integrated into the
behav-
ioral system of collective members (i.e., managers for the
present
study). Thus, as managers identify social cues about desired be-
haviors and norms, they learn about the psychological empower-
ment climate encompassing meaningfulness, competence, self-
determination, and impact. Managers in highly empowered units
possess a common understanding of competence, the ability to
determine appropriate work methods, and the significance of
their
work. As a result, managers share similar behavioral strategies
as
each manager learns and models behavior after one another, in-
cluding increased motivation to engage in their work (Lawler,
1996). Thus, an increase in psychological empowerment climate
and the subsequent decrease in behavioral variability among
man-
22. agers in a given collective results in more cognitive, physical,
and
socioemotional resources for managers to apply toward work
tasks
as they are not expending resources on understanding their envi-
ronment (cf. Dragoni, 2005; Hochwarter, Witt, Treadway, &
Fer-
ris, 2006).
Given this social learning process, it is probable that psycho-
logical empowerment climate can be broadened and
strengthened
within managerial collectives via repeated interactions
(Dragoni,
2005; Fredrickson & Losada, 2005). When shared perceptions of
empowerment are high, the continued interactions among
manag-
ers produce a positive spiral generating additional
empowerment
perceptions (cf. Feldman, 2004). Such increases in meaningful-
ness, competence, self-determination, and impact (i.e.,
psycholog-
ical empowerment climate) should increase performance due to
the
role of psychological empowerment as an enabling process that
allows managers to increase task engagement and persistence.
Therefore, we contend that shared managerial perceptions of
psy-
chological empowerment climate positively relate to
performance,
of which service and sales are two key indices in the present
sample.
Hypothesis 2 (H2): Psychological empowerment climate pos-
itively relates to sales (H2a) and service (H2b).
23. Shared Felt Accountability as a Moderator
Accountability is defined as “an implicit or explicit expectation
that one’s decisions or actions will be subject to evaluation by
some salient audience(s) with the belief that there exists the
potential for one to receive either rewards or sanctions based on
the expected evaluation” (Hall et al., 2003, p. 33).
Accountability
is most often conceptualized and studied as a perceptual state
(i.e.,
felt accountability) rather than an objective condition (Frink &
Klimoski, 1998; Hochwarter et al., 2007; Tetlock, 1985).
Research
suggests that accountability relates to a number of important
organizational constructs, such as motivation (Enzle &
Anderson,
1993) and job performance (Hochwarter et al., 2007; Schlenker
&
Weigold, 1989).
Gelfand, Lim, and Raver (2004) proposed the perceptual state of
accountability as a multilevel phenomenon of which there are
two
forms: structural alignment and web alignment. Structural align-
ment exists when organizational members perceive formal orga-
nizational policies, rules, and procedures in the same fashion.
Web
alignment is the extent to which individuals share a common
understanding of informal behavioral expectations, specific to a
1 Preacher et al.’s (2007) study also contains multiple models
for testing
moderated-mediation. We used Model 3. We also used Preacher
et al.’s
macro, and the complete reference for the macro is provided in
the
24. References list. Finally, the macro provides confidence interval
options for
percentile and biased methods—results with these options
supported the
same pattern of significance.

given collective, thereby different from formal policies, rules,
and
procedures (cf. Bowen & Ostroff, 2004; Zohar, 2000). Of
partic-
ular interest to the present study is Gelfand et al.’s (2004)
concep-
tualization of within-collective web alignment (i.e., members
per-
ceive similar accountability norms). Building on the notion of
within-unit accountability alignment (Gelfand et al., 2004) and
the
definition of accountability provided by Hall et al. (2003), we
conceptualized shared felt accountability as a collective
expecta-
29. tion in which decisions and behaviors are subject to evaluation
and
justification by a salient organizational agent(s). As with
psycho-
logical empowerment climate, the interactions between and
among
restaurant managers not only give rise to but also strengthen the
collective accountability among managers via repeated cycles of
interaction and influence. Through mutual influence, managers
codify accountability norms by acting on heightened
perceptions
of felt accountability. As such, accountability is isomorphic
across
levels of analysis (cf. Klein & Kozlowski, 2000).
Shared felt accountability differs from the notion of “responsi-
bility and accountability” presented by Seibert et al. (2004) as a
component of empowering leadership climate. Seibert et al.
(2004)
define accountability as “the perception that teams are the locus
of
decision-making authority [responsibility] and performance ac-
countability in organizations” (p. 333). This definition of
account-
ability is more structural in nature as it describes the delegation
of
authority and responsibility. This does not accurately capture
shared felt accountability, but rather captures whether managers
have been charged with the duty and obligation to monitor their
own behavior. For example, Seibert et al. (2004) measured the
extent to which members perceive they are responsible for their
own accountability (e.g., “We use teams as the focal point of
responsibility and accountability in our organization,” p. 338).
Due
to these discrepancies, four issues limit us from adopting
Seibert et
30. al.’s (2004) conceptualization of responsibility and
accountability.
First, we do not focus on teams. Second, Seibert et al. (2004)
combined responsibility and accountability into the same
dimen-
sion, despite the conceptual distinction between the two (Frink
&
Klimoski, 1998; Hall et al., 2006). Third, the conceptualization
and
measure used by Siebert et al. (2004) does not measure shared
felt
accountability. Fourth, and perhaps most important,
accountability
is not a theoretical component in psychological empowerment
(Spretizer, 1995). Accordingly, we believe that the present re-
search more accurately conceptualizes shared felt
accountability.
According to Hall et al. (2003), accountability facilitates orga-
nizational order by creating awareness of task responsibilities
and
acceptable methods for task achievement as well as by
identifying
the relevant evaluative organizational agent(s) (see also Breaux
et
al., 2009). Accountability creates a behavioral boundary that
guides and directs resources toward a specified set of objectives
for behavior and performance (Hall et al., 2006). Given that
within-unit accountability is a shared perception that exists
within
collectives (Gelfand et al., 2004) and that accountability also
provides members with clear expectancies for resource
utilization
(Hall et al., 2003, 2006), it is likely that accountability helps
channel resources toward achieving expected outcomes. There-
fore, we proposed shared felt accountability as a moderator of
31. the
psychological empowerment climate and performance
relationship
because although felt accountability accentuates the positive as-
pects of a psychological empowerment climate, it does not lead
to
them.
When shared felt accountability is high, managers are likely
more familiar with evaluative standards for decisions and
behav-
iors, thereby reducing confusion, conflict, and anxiety leading
to
enhanced performance (Davis, Mero, & Goodman, 2007; Fandt,
1991; Mero, Guidice, & Brownlee, 2007). Low shared felt ac-
countability likely leads to increased confusion, conflict, and
anx-
iety among managers in a given collective due to a lack of
normative evaluation standards (Gelfand et al., 2004), which
neg-
atively relates to performance. Shared felt accountability serves
as
a behavioral check on the appropriate application of effort and
resources. Thus, in a situation in which accountability is low
but
empowerment is high, empowered managers fail to answer the
question: What are we empowered to do? because standards for
decisions and behaviors are insufficient. However, when both
accountability and psychological empowerment climate are
high,
managers have clear behavioral standards to guide the
application
of their resources. For example, Hall et al. (2003) found that the
combination of high autonomy and high accountability resulted
in
decreased job tension and emotional exhaustion, while leading
32. to
higher job satisfaction. Thus, shared felt accountability
provides
guidance to highly empowered managers as to how their work
will
be evaluated, thus establishing behavioral expectations.
Therefore,
we propose that shared felt accountability serves as a boundary
condition moderating the relationship between psychological
em-
powerment climate and performance:
Hypothesis 3 (H3): Shared felt accountability moderates the
psychological empowerment climate–sales (H3a) and service
(H3b) relationship such that under high accountability, there
will be a more positive relationship, whereas there will be a
less positive relationship when accountability is low.
Moderation and Mediation
Building on the hypotheses presented above (Hypotheses 1–3),
we expect to find support for a mediated model in which
psycho-
logical empowerment climate mediates the empowering
leadership
climate to performance relationship. Furthermore, we also
expect
felt accountability to moderate this mediated relationship. In es-
sence, we propose that shared felt accountability moderates the
mediation effect of psychological empowerment climate on the
empowering leadership–performance relationship.
Hypothesis 4 (H4): Shared felt accountability moderates the
mediated relationship between empowering leadership cli-
mate and sales (H4a) and service (H4b) via psychological
empowerment climate such that when accountability is high,
33. the conditional indirect effect of empowering leadership cli-
mate on sales and service is more positive, whereas the
conditional indirect effect of empowering leadership on sales
and service is less positive when accountability is low.
Method

mechanism for managers in which each restaurant contained a
store manager and several assistant managers. Managers were
surveyed over three time periods via an e-mail sent from the
corporate office once a month for a period of 3 consecutive
months. Of the total 649 stores in the organization, managers
38. from
430 stores responded (response rate of 66%). For the second
round, individuals responding from the initial 430 stores were
surveyed, yielding responses from managers of 236 stores (54%
response rate). The third and final round yielded responses from
members in 159 stores participating from the previous rounds
(67% response rate). Of the 159 stores in which managers re-
sponded over all three periods, 116 stores had complete and
usable
data and were composed of 539 managers (assistant and store)
with at least two assistant managers and one store manager re-
sponding from each store. Over the three time periods, the
usable
overall response rate for assistant and store managers was
24.1%
(total potential manager sample was 2,235). The average
number
of manager responses for each restaurant was 4.7 (range � 3–7).
During the first phase of data collection, all managers were
asked
to complete measures on control variables, whereas only
assistant
managers completed the empowering leadership measure using
the
store manager as a referent. Approximately 1 month later at
Time
2, assistant managers completed the psychological
empowerment
climate scale, and then 1 month following this data collection,
all
managers completed the accountability scale (Time 3). The par-
ticipating organization provided store sales numbers for the
2008
fiscal year and mystery customer service shopping scores for
the
following quarter (3 months later). The final sample was
39. composed
of 58.7% females (SD � 0.48), with 38% of the sample between
the ages of 21 and 25, 36% between the ages of 26 and 34, and
26% were older than 34.
Measures
Empowering leadership climate. Empowering leadership
climate was measured with the 17-item scale developed by
Ahearne et al. (2005). The scale includes four different areas
including participation in decision making (five items; example
item, “My store manager makes many decisions together with
me”), meaningfulness of work (four items; example item, “My
store manager helps me understand how my objectives and goals
relate to that of the company”), confidence in high performance
(three items; example item, “My store manager believes that I
can
handle demanding tasks”), and autonomy from bureaucratic con-
straints (five items; example item, “My store manager makes it
more efficient for me to do my job by keeping the rules and
regulations simple”). The measure uses a 7-point Likert-type
scale
ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). The
assistant managers for each store evaluated the respective store
manager in regard to his or her empowering leadership
behavior.
Psychological empowerment climate. Using only assistant
managers, psychological empowerment climate was assessed
with
Spreitzer’s (1995 12, 1996) 12-item measure. This four-
dimensional instrument measures the psychological aspects of
empowerment regarding meaning (e.g., “The work I do is very
important to me within my store”), competence (e.g., “I am con-
fident about my ability to do my job in my store”), self-
determination (e.g., “I have significant autonomy in my store in
40. determining how I do my job”), and impact (e.g., “My impact
on
what happens in my store is large”). The measure uses a 7-point
Likert-type scale rangng from 1 (very strongly disagree) to 7
(very
strongly agree). The referent was left as the self (i.e.,
aggregation
via direct consensus) due to the isomorphic nature of
psycholog-
ical empowerment. James et al. (2008) and Chan (1998)
discussed
that the direct consensus model of aggregation is adequate to
capture the notion of a shared psychological climate given that
there is sufficient empirical justification for aggregation (e.g.,
rwg � .70), which is reported in the Results section.
Accountability. The accountability measure, developed by
Hochwarter, Kacmar, and Ferris (2003), is composed of eight
items
assessing manager’s felt accountability at work (Hochwarter,
Per-
rewe, Hall, & Ferris, 2005). This measure uses a 7-point Likert-
type
scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree).
Ex-
ample items include “I am held very accountable for my actions
in my
store” and “I often have to explain why I do certain things at
work.”
Both assistant and store managers completed this measure.
Performance. Store sales revenues for the 2008 fiscal year as
well as aggregated customer service perceptions for restaurants
were obtained. The customers who evaluated the store service
performance were hired from a national third-party mystery
41. shop-
ping organization. Dimensions on which service was rated
include
employee appearance, order taking, friendliness, accuracy, and
promptness of food arrival. Items evaluating restaurant service
are
rated on a 5-point scale ranging from 1 ( poor) to 5 (excellent).
The
organization provided the mean of the five service dimensions.
Controls. Organization tenure and gender were controlled
for, as research has shown that each is related to service perfor-
mance (Ployhart, Wiechmann, Schmitt, Sacco, & Rogg, 2003).
Store age in years was also controlled for, as it might relate to
sales
beyond the control of managers. Using this method might allow
us
to partial out some store specific revenues (Kacmar, Andrews,
Rooy, Steilberg, & Cerrone, 2006). Perceptions of
organizational
resources (i.e., work design features that help employees
achieve
goals and reduce job demands; Salanova, Agut, & Peiró, 2005,
p.
1218) were controlled for in order to determine whether the
focal
variables capture unique variance in the present outcomes
beyond
perceived organizational resources. The scale used for this
control
variable consists of 11 items along three dimensions: organiza-
tional training, job autonomy, and technology using a 5-point
scale
ranging from 1 (not important) to 5 (very important).
Results
42. Given the potential overlap among our primary variables, we
conducted a confirmatory factor analysis to assess divergent
validity.
We found that a four-factor model (empowerment climate,
empow-
ering leadership, accountability, and organizational resources)
fit the
data well, �2(1169, N �) � 1726.32, p � .05, confirmatory fit
index
(CFI) � .97, root-mean-square-error of approximation
(RMSEA) �
.06, standardized root-mean-square residual (SRMR) � .04.
Addi-
tionally, all correlations among the four factors were less than
.35.
Next, we assessed the viability of data aggregation following
the
recommendations of Bliese (2000): sufficient within-unit
homogene-
ity, between-unit heterogeneity, and the naturally occurring
nature of
the unit of analysis, which is the case in the present study. We
used the
rwg(j) statistic and interclass correlation(1) (ICC[1]) to assess
within-
unit homogeneity and ICC(2) and analysis of variance
(ANOVA) to
assess between-unit homogeneity. As shown in Table 1,

indices are supportive of aggregating our data. Next, we
examined
descriptive statistics for our main effect hypotheses (H1:
empowering
leadership climate and psychological empowerment climate; H2:
psy-
chological empowerment climate and performance indices). As
shown in Table 2, Hypotheses 1 and 2 were both supported.
Also, we
examined the relationship between empowering leadership
climate
(distal predictor) and store performance as a first step in
establishing
mediation. We found that empowering leadership climate
positively
relates to sales and service, which initially supports the first
step in
mediation. We assessed Hypotheses 3 and 4 using multiple
moderated
regression and tests of conditional indirect effects.
Prior to analyzing the full model, all predictors were mean
centered (Aiken & West, 1991). In the model, we first entered
our
control variables as well as empowering leadership climate in
48. predicting sales (see Table 3) and service (see Table 4).
Although
empowering leadership climate did not significantly predict
either,
we moved forward with our models to assess indirect effects.
Second, we used the same predictor variables with
psychological
empowerment climate (the mediator) as the outcome.
Empowering
leadership climate was a significant predictor (� � .25, p �
.05)
of psychological empowerment climate. Third, psychological
em-
powerment climate was shown to be a significant predictor of
both
sales (� � .21, p � .05) and service (� � .31, p � .05). Next,
we
controlled for accountability and the fifth model controlled for
interactions among our control variables. Accountability was a
significant predictor of sales (� � .26, p � .05) and service (�
�
.26, p � .05), yet no significant control interactions were found.
In
the last step, we found that our focal interaction between
psycho-
logical empowerment climate and shared felt accountability was
significant for sales (� � .36, p � .05) and service (� � .26, p
�
.05). As shown in Figures 2 and 3, low accountability made
little
difference in performance regardless of psychological empower-
ment climate level. Conversely, in stores with high
accountability,
psychological empowerment climate positively related to both
sales and service performance. Tests of simple slopes supported
49. this pattern such that with high accountability, psychological
em-
powerment climate significantly related to sales (� � .40, p �
.05)
and service (� � .31 p � .05), but not when accountability was
low (� � �.21, p � .05; � � �.17, p � .05). Our results
partially
support Hypothesis 3 in that there were significant relationships
between psychological empowerment climate and sales and ser-
vice when accountability was high, but not when accountability
was low.
Although it is the most common method for testing mediated
models, researchers have pointed out shortcomings of the Baron
and Kenny (1986) approach and recommend reporting estimates
of
the size of the indirect effect and statistical significance tests
(e.g.,
MacKinnon, Lockwood, Hoffman, West, & Sheets, 2002; Shrout
& Bolger, 2002). The Preacher, Rucker, and Hayes (2007)
method
also allow for testing moderated-mediation in conjunction with
indirect effects via bootstrapping. Hence, to further assess the
proposed moderated-mediated effects, we tested for conditional
indirect effects following the Preacher et al. (2007) method. An
assumption of statistical significance tests is that the data are
normally distributed. However, indirect effects are likely
skewed
so the assumption of normality is often untenable. Thus, we
derived estimates of the indirect effects, their standard errors,
and
the bias-corrected and accelerated 95% confidence intervals
around the effects using a bootstrapping method with
replacement
following the guidelines of Preacher et al. (2007; see also
Footnote
50. 1). Previous work has used this approach (e.g., Edwards &
Arthur,
2007; Wallace, Edwards, Shull, & Finch, 2009), and research
demonstrates that bootstrap methods are more powerful than tra-
ditional tests of mediation (Shrout & Bolger, 2002). We
estimated
1,000 bootstrap samples in which the independent variable was
empowering leadership, the mediator was psychological empow-
erment climate, the moderator was shared felt accountability,
and
the dependent variables were sales and service. In short, this
method examines the magnitude of the conditional indirect
effects
of empowering leadership on store sales and service through
psychological empowerment climate across both low and high

in
Table 5 demonstrate that when accountability is low, the
indirect
effects of empowering leadership climate on sales and service
were nonsignificant. However, when accountability is high,
there
is a significant and positive indirect effect of empowering
leader-
ship climate via psychological empowerment climate on store
sales (conditional indirect effect � .14, 95% CI � 0.04, 0.21)
and
store service (conditional indirect effect � .17, 95% CI � 0.07,
0.24).
Discussion
The purpose of this research was twofold. The first was to theo-
retically describe and empirically test a form of psychological
em-
powerment climate, integrating it with empowering leadership
cli-
mate. The second, and perhaps the more pressing objective of
this
research, was to examine shared felt accountability as a
boundary
condition in the empowerment process from a managerial
perspective.
We discovered positive relationships between empowering
leadership
climate, psychological empowerment climate, and two indices
of
performance. We also demonstrated that shared felt
accountability
significantly moderated this process. Although the present
research
57. makes important contributions to the literature on
empowerment,
perhaps the more interesting contribution is the moderating role
of
accountability. Managerial accountability is essential to store
success,
so much so that in the absence of accountability, empowerment
does
not provide positive benefits. Our findings indicate that positive
benefits from empowerment (structural, via empowering
leadership
climate and psychological, via psychological empowerment
climate)
only accrue in the presence of high shared felt accountability.
Theo-
retically, this study extends previous empowerment research by
de-
lineating empowerment climate from a shared psychological
perspec-
tive, distinguishing it from team empowerment and empowering
leadership, integrating it with empowering leadership, and by
sup-
porting accountability as a boundary condition. Hence,
empowerment
climate appears to be quite meaningful as a shared
psychological
perception beyond the structural component of empowering
leader-
ship alone.
Although we were interested in a rather practical question:
What
happens if managers are empowered but not held accountable?
we
have identified important implications stemming from the
58. integra-
tion of shared felt accountability with psychological
empowerment
climate. First, future research on psychological empowerment
should include accountability to ascertain its relevance across
contexts and across organizational levels to increase
generalizabil-
ity. Second, our results indicate that an organization should
implement procedures to develop mutual felt accountability of
restaurant managers in an effort to optimize effectiveness. Oth-
erwise, individuals who do not feel accountable may take
advantage of their empowerment resulting in potential adverse
consequences. Future research should address the possibility of
these consequences, such as counterproductive work behaviors.
Our results also suggest that accountability should also be

considered in a more positive frame, as prior research positions
accountability as a stressor (Ferris, Mitchell, Canavan, Frink, &
Hopper, 1995). However, research suggests that stressors can
engender either a hindrance view or a challenge view, with
65. challenge stressors leading to improved performance (LePine,
Podsakoff, & LePine, 2005). It is the responsibility of the unit
manager to remove hindrances (e.g., red tape) and provide
support for employees to meet challenges (Wallace, Edwards,

Arnold, Frazier, & Finch, 2009). The importance of these
findings is especially salient to service organizations, as cus-
tomer perceptions are often created with limited interaction
(Susskind, Kacmar, & Borchgrevink, 2003). This makes each
employee– customer interaction vitally important in service ex-
changes. Because of the unique situation inherent in service
work, organizations should attempt to foster an empowering
environment by using an integrated approach to empowerment
such as the one documented herein.
As with any study, there are limitations of the present research.
First, limited interactions with multiple customers and unique
employment patterns underlying our sample may not be normal
for
other industries, thereby limiting the generalizability of the
find-
ings. Similarly, the source of data was a single organization and
from the manager’s perspective, further limiting the
applicability
of our findings to other contexts. A critical next step to further
validate our findings would be to include frontline employees
with
managers to better capture the “total” empowerment climate. In-
cluding all unit members to assess empowerment climate would
broaden and enrich this fertile research area. Further fruitful re-
search might examine differences in perceptions of
empowerment
climate across managers and employees and how such
75. differences
relate to performance indicators (McKay, Avery, & Morris,
2009).
Future research should also consider applying a longitudinal
design in the study of psychological empowerment to increase
the
internal validity of the relationships tested in the present study.
A
longitudinal design could further explicate the causal link
between
psychological empowerment climate and performance outcomes.
Additionally, future work could examine resource allocation
strat-
egies that might further explain the relationship between
psycho-
logical empowerment climate and performance. Another
extension
of the present study would be to obtain additional performance
ratings from an organizational leader in touch with restaurant
managers. Although the use of store sales and third-party
customer
service evaluations provide relevant insight into unit
performance,
supervisor evaluations could triangulate the phenomenon of
inter-
est with existing data (i.e., objective sales, external ratings,
internal
ratings). Furthermore, formal policies and practices
implemented
by organizations to increase shared felt accountability (i.e.,
struc-
tural alignment; Gelfand et al., 2004) should also be considered
in
empowerment research as well as the potential negative effects
76. of
too much accountability. In fact, post hoc we examined this
potential. We did not find evidence to support a curvilinear
rela-
tionship such that the positive relationship we found might
actually
become negative with additional increases in accountability.
This
could be due to our sample, and follow-up interviews with man-
agers suggested that they do not feel extreme levels of account-
ability. However, results of these interviews did suggest that
extreme levels of accountability might hurt their performance.
We
encourage future research to investigate these extensions and
hope
the present research stimulates future development on empower-
ment and accountability.
