Developing problem-solving efficacy and job performance: Moderation of knowledge-oriented leadership

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Drawing upon social cognitive career theory, this study presents the formation of job performance by concurrently justifying problem-solving efficacy as a mediator and knowledge-oriented leadership as a moderator. In the proposed model, job performance is influenced by the learning value of the job, perceived job insecurity, and learning goal orientation (i.e., three predictors) indirectly through problem-solving efficacy. Moreover, knowledge-oriented leadership hypothetically moderates the effects of the three predictors on problem-solving efficacy. Empirical evaluations are demonstrated on the basis of the analyzed data of high-tech workers in Taiwan. Finally, theoretical and practical implications about workplace learning and job performance are discussed.
