Abstract:
|
The present study aims to disentangle effects of empowerment climate at the organizational and individual level in the prediction of individual level performance by applying contextual effect models within multilevel analysis. We further examined whether empowerment climate at the organizational level mediates the relationship between empowering human resource practices at the organizational level and individual level performance. Using a sample of 430 employees nested in 31 companies, we found a positive empowerment-performance relationship at the individual level, but a negative context effect of empowerment on all three measures of individual level performance that we assessed. Our results contribute to the empowerment literature by highlighting the potential downside of empowerment in organizations. We further address the frequently mentioned black box problem in the strategic human resource management literature which refers to the lack of knowledge of how human resource practices relate to organizational outcomes by bridging the gap of organizational and individual level effects.
