Recently, a number of studies have tried to examine the processes that explain the influence of high performance work systems (HPWS) on company performance, in an attempt to understand which variables mediate this relationship and to what extent they do so. The importance of the organizational learning capability (OLC) construct has traditionally been outlined as being essential for a company's survival and effective performance. Thus, it seems important to establish whether HPWS can be considered an antecedent of OLC, and consequently to confirm whether OLC acts as a mediating variable in the HPWS-company performance linkage. Bearing in mind that HPWS represent a 'bundle' of mutually reinforcing, overlapping and synergistic individual human resource practices, this positive connection between HPWS and OLC seems reasonable. We tested our hypotheses by applying a structural equation methodology to a sample of 163 Spanish companies. Our findings show that the effects of HPWS on organizational performance are mediated by OLC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

During the last two decades the relationship between organizational strategy and human resources practices has been deeply analyzed. However, the mediator role of organizational structure in this relationship remains relatively uninvestigated. In this article we analyze a model of relationships among organizational strategy, organizational structure and human resources practices. Through a structural equation methodology applied to a sample of 183 Spanish companies, we will try to confirm that organizations with differentiation strategies are more likely to implement high involvement work practices. As a novelty we will introduce organizational structure as a mediator of this relationship. For that we will use the construct control mechanisms (centralization, formalization, and socialization).

Purpose -- This paper aims to clarify the relationship between human resource practices and staff retention by selecting three high performance work practices (precursors) and one outcome variable (turnover intentions), and trying to demonstrate the mediator role of employee commitment and job satisfaction in this relationship. Design/methodology/approach -- The proposed model has been analyzed with a sample of 198 employees and a structural equation modeling methodology. Findings -- Salary strategies and job enrichment strategies were positively related to job satisfaction. Job enrichment strategies and job stability strategies were positively related to employee commitment. Employee commitment was negatively related to turnover intentions. The relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intentions was mediated by employee commitment Research limitations/implications -- One limitation of the findings is the use of self-report questionnaires to collect data on all measures. Another potential limitation concerns the measurement of some latent factors with only two observable variables. Practical implications -- Turnover continues to be a serious problem for businesses. The proposed model suggests the use of specific practices that develop satisfaction and commitment as an intermediate step to low turnover intentions. Originality/value -- A sample of 198 workers was used as the source of information. This information offers clear advantages over the more widely used samples from managerial directors or statistical data gathered in human resource practices, as in this case. The perceptions of those people on whom these measures are directly carried out are readily accessible. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose - To develop money profiles based on money attitudes and investigate differences in work-related attitudes across money profiles. Design/methodology/approach - Data from 564 university students in the USA were collected and four money profiles based on the Love of Money Scale (LOMS) were identified using cluster analysis. Findings - Achieving money worshipers (23.22 percent) have the highest scores on factors good, respect, achievement, and power. Careless money admirers (30.16 percent) have the lowest scores on factors budget and evil. Apathetic money managers (31.08 percent) have the lowest scores on factors respect and achievement and the highest on budget Money repellent Individuals (15.54 percent) have the lowest scores on factors good and power and the highest on factor evil. Achieving money worshipers have the highest level of organization-based self-esteem (OBSE), the protestant work ethic (PWE), intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction, and satisfaction with social and self-actualization needs, whereas money repellent individuals have the lowest Apathetic money managers have the highest level of satisfaction with physiological and safety needs. Research limitations/implications - This convenience sample does not represent the national population in general or student population in particular. Self-reported data from the same source at one time can inflate relationships between variables and do not provide the cause-and-effect relationship. Practical implications - Researchers and managers understand that people in different money profiles have different work-related attitudes and importance and satisfaction of human needs and that they may identify human resource strategies to predict and control behavior in organizations. Originality/value - The four money profiles, replicated in this study, are valid across several cultures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

62. From Income To Pay Satisfaction: The Love of Money and Pay Equity Comparison as Mediators and Culture (the United States and Spain) and Gender as Moderators.

Tang, Thomas Li-Ping, Luna-Arocas, Roberto, and Sutarso, Toto
- Abstract
This study examined a mediating model of income and pay satisfaction with a direct path (income →; pay satisfaction) and an indirect path with two mediators (income →; the love of money →; pay equity comparison →; pay satisfaction). Results of the whole sample showed that the indirect path was significant and the direct path was insignificant. When the indirect path was eliminated, income contributed positively to pay satisfaction. We then tested the model across two moderators: culture (the United States versus Spain) and gender. This study provides the following theoretical and empirical contributions: the direct relationship between income and pay satisfaction depends on the indirect path and the extent to which (1) income enhances the love of money and (2) the love of money is applied to evaluate pay equity comparison satisfaction. If both conditions exist, income leads to pay dissatisfaction. If the second condition does not exist, income does not lead to pay dissatisfaction. Pay satisfaction depends on (1) one's love of money and (2) how one compares. The role of the love of money in pay satisfaction is "not"universal across cultures and gender. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study examines the love of money and work-related attitudes and identifies four money profiles based on a sample of citizens in the Republic of Macedonia. Achieving Money Worshipers (the highest scores on Factors Success, Motivator, and Budget and the lowest on Evil) had the highest active involvement in work activities. Careless Money Admirers (the lowest score on Factor Budget) had the highest external locus of control, the highest involvement, and lowest success avoidance. Apathetic Money Managers (the lowest scores on Factors Success and Motivator) had the highest internal locus of control and the lowest involvement Money Repellent Individuals (the highest score on Factor Evil) had the lowest competitiveness and the highest success avoidance. Results provide the validity of the Love of Money Scale and the four money profiles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, authors present a research examining the money ethic scale, self-reported income, demographic variables, and life satisfaction among 207 professors in the United States and 102 professors in Spain. Results suggested that the female/male income ratio was 70.95 percent for American professors and 63.82 percent for Spanish professors. American faculty reported higher scores on factors budget, equity, and success, and lower scores on factor evil than their Spanish counterparts. Sex, factors budget, education, and work experience were predictors of American professors' income, while work experience, sex, education, and factor motivator were predictors of Spanish professors' income. For the American sample, marital status, factors budget, sex, a low level of education, and a low level of factor success were predictors of life satisfaction, whereas for the Spanish sample, marital status, young age, and factor budget were predictors of life satisfaction. The authors found that income was not related to life satisfaction in both samples.

65. Talent management, talent mindset competency and job performance: the mediating role of job satisfaction
- Author

Luna–Arocas, Roberto and Morley, Michael J.
- Abstract
This study advances and tests four interlinked hypotheses explicating the relationship between talent mindset competency, job satisfaction and job performance. Talent mindset competency is dimensionalised as: (a) value and goal alignment with the organisation, (b) manager's talent mindset, (c) talent application in everyday behaviours, (d) autonomy using talent and (e) development of talent in organisation. Results generated from a series of path analyses from a data set of 198 public and private sector employees suggest that strategies centred on talent management impact job performance, but through job satisfaction which acts as a mediator. Thus, it is not postulated that we have to pursue job satisfaction as a main underlying contributor to job performance, but rather that if we develop and institutionalise a comprehensive talent system, this can affect both job satisfaction (directly) and job performance (indirectly).

El estudio está orientado al análisis de la relación entre el liderazgo transformacional (LT) y el intraemprendedurismo (IE) y la mediación de la cultura organizacional(CO) en dicha relación. Se lleva a cabo con base en una muestra de 400 profesionales. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron para el liderazgo transformacional el diseñado por Podsakoff, MacKenzie, Moorman y Fetter (1990) y Podsakoff, MacKenzie y Bommer (1996); para el intraemprendedurismo el instrumento desarrollado por Mora y Siles (2012) y para la cultura organizacional el instrumento elaborado por Denison y Mishra (1995), adaptado a Costa Rica por Vargas (2013). El análisis de datos se se realiza con el uso de análisis multivariado, particularmente, de ecuaciones estructurales. Se incluye el análisis factorial confirmatorio y un análisis de modelo de ecuaciones estructurales exploratorio. Se hace uso del programa Mplus. Las hipótesis objeto de estudio son: Hipótesis 1: Existe una relación significativamente positiva entre el liderazgo transformacional y el comportamiento intraemprendedor. Hipótesis 2: El liderazgo transformacional tiene una relación positiva con los rasgos de la cultura organizacional (involucramiento, consistencia, adaptabilidad y misión). Hipótesis 3a: Los rasgos de la cultura organizacional (involucramiento, consistencia, adaptabilidad y misión) tienen una relación positiva con el comportamiento intraemprendedor. Hipótesis 3b: Los componentes de involucramiento y adaptabilidad muestran una relación más fuerte con el comportamiento intraemprendedor que los componentes de consistencia y misión. Hipótesis 4: Los rasgos de la cultura organizacional (involucramiento, consistencia, adaptabilidad y misión) median la relación entre el liderazgo transformacional y el intraemprendedurismo. Hipótesis 5: En las organizaciones públicas la relación entre el liderazgo transformacional y el intraemprendedurismo se da con menos fuerza que en las organizaciones privadas. Las estimaciones estandarizadas están con un mínimo de 0,70, son significativas y en la dirección prevista. La confiabilidad compuesta de cada una de las dimensiones son superiores al nivel de 0,60 recomendado por Bagozzi y Yi (1988), así cumplen con el requerimiento establecido. El nivel de AVE para cada una de las dimensiones, señala un nivel de validez convergente satisfactorio, en el tanto se cumple el requisito mínimo de 0.5 (Malhotra y Dash, 2011). Los resultados indican efectivamente que existe una relación positiva entre el LT e IE, que efectivamente dicha relación es mediada por CO. Asi también se encontró que las cuatro dimensiones de CO, se constituyeron en dos y una de ellas (flexibilidad) mostraba relación positiva con el IE y las otra dimensión (estabilidad) mostró relación negativa, no significativa con el IE. Asimismo se estableció que LT tiene relación positiva y direccionada con CO. Para la empresa las implicaciones es la necesidad de una mayor comprensión de la cultura organizacional, tratando de buscar una que sea más de apoyo a los procesos de transformación de la organización, la innovación y la generación de nuevos negocios al interior de la empresa. Igualmente, no se trata de disminuir el uso del liderazgo sino más bien orientarlo hacia el liderazgo transformacional de modo que apoye la gestión del cambio. Considerar asimismo lo concerniente al concepto de modelo de competencias. Este concepto, generado para lograr flexibilidad y capacidad de movilidad dentro de las organizaciones, resulta útil considerarlo tanto a nivel individual como a nivel organizacional. Dichos resultados invitan a continuar el proceso investigación de manera que pueda profundizarse en la competencias específicas del LT que inciden en competencias específicas del IE, así como otras variables contextuales, como las prácticas de recursos humanos ligadas a la cultura organizacional que pueden incidir en el IE. Igualmente considerar el tamaño de las organizaciones que permita determinar por ejemplo los factores en las pequeñas y medias empresas que inciden en el proceso de intraemprendedurismo. Al tomar en cuenta los resultados tanto de esta investigación como de otras investigaciones que utilizan el modelo cultural de Denison, conviene considerar la cultura nacional y relacionarla con la cultura organizacional particular para especificar en mayor detalle el impacto o efecto con el intraemprendedurismo.

El eje central de la presente investigación son los Recursos Humanos y más concretamente las denominadas Prácticas de Alto Rendimiento. Según las argumentaciones que podemos encontrar en la literatura existen una serie de prácticas que si se aplican de una determinada manera consiguen un mayor rendimiento por parte de los trabajadores y por ende de la organización. La muestra utilizada para realizar el presente estudio han sido Pymes de Valencia. El principal objetivo de la actual investigación es comprobar el posible papel mediador de la Importancia de los Recursos Humanos en la relación entre la elección de la estrategia organizativa y la aplicación de las Prácticas de Alto Rendimiento. Los resultados obtenidos confirman por una parte la relación entre la estrategia y la aplicación de las Prácticas de Alto Rendimiento de manera que aquellas empresas que implantan una estrategia basada en la diferenciación hacen un mayor uso de las Prácticas de Alto Rendimiento y al contrario aquellas organizaciones que se deciden por una estrategia basada en costes hacen un menor uso de las Prácticas de Alto Rendimiento. Los resultados confirman también el papel mediador de la Importancia de los Recursos Humanos en la relación entre la elección de la estrategia y el uso de las Prácticas de Alto Rendimiento, lo que significa que parte de la varianza existente en la relación entre las citadas variables se explica ahora a través de la Importancia concedida a los Recursos Humanos. Finalmente cabe destacar que la principal conclusión que podemos extraer de la mediación parcial es que existe una gran diferencia entre la Formulación de la estrategia y la Implementación Estratégica de forma que aquellas empresas que implementan una estrategia basada en diferenciación realmente utilizan las Prácticas de Alto Rendimiento en mayor medida si realmente le dan Importancia a los Recursos Humanos. The focus of this research are HR and more specifically the High Performance Practices. According to the arguments that can be found in the literature there are a number of practices that if applied in a certain way they get a better performance from the workers and therefore the organization. The sample used for this study, were SME's from Valencia. The main goal of the present research is to test the potential mediating role of Importance of Human Resources in the relationship between the strategy and the use of High Performance Practices. The results confirm the relationship between the strategy and the implementation of the High Performance Practices so that the companies that implement a strategy based on differentiation make greater use of the High Performance Practices and in opposite terms those organizations that implement a cost strategy make less use of High Performance Work Practices. The results also confirm the mediating role of the value given to Human Resources in the relationship between the strategy and the use of High Performance Work Practices, which means that part of the existing variance in the relationship between this variables will now be explained through the Importance given to Human Resources. Finally it should be noted that the main conclusion we can draw from the partial mediation is that there is a big difference between Strategy Formulation and Strategy Implementation so that those Companies that implement a strategy based on differentiation really use High Performance Work Practices furthermore if they really give Importance to Human Resources.
