Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a conceptual framework of development, commitment, and
retention of Generation Y employees.
Design/methodology/approach – Based on a review of existing literature and using social exchange and
social constructivist approach, this study presents a conceptual framework with mentoring, strategic
leadership, social media, and knowledge sharing as its key constructs to retain Generation Y employees.
Findings – Mentoring, strategic leadership, social media, and knowledge sharing have a great potential to
foster competency development. Competency development is critical to evoke affective commitment of
Generation Y employees, which in turn results in intention to stay forth.
Research limitations/implications – The proposed conceptual framework should be empirically
validated in the future research.
Practical implications – Organisations should incorporate mentoring, strategic leadership, social media,
and knowledge sharing into their talent management strategy for Generation Y employees. Competency
development then in turn evokes commitment of Generation Y employees, leading to intention to stay forth.
The framework suggests an approach for generation-specific retention strategy.
Originality/value – This is one of the first studies to propose a holistic framework to retain Generation Y
employees. This paper adds a new dimension to the talent management literature by focusing on young
generation employees

This paper summarizes a stream of research aimed at developing and validating a measure of employee commitment to work organizations. The instrument, developed by Porter and his colleagues, is called the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (OCQ). Based on a series of studies among 2563 employees in nine divergent organizations, satisfactory test-retest reliabilities and internal consistency reliabilities were found. In addition, cross-validated evidence of acceptable levels of predictive, convergent, and discriminant validity emerged for the instrument. Norms for males and females are presented based on the available sample. Possible instrument limitations and future research needs on the measurement and study of organizational commitment are reviewed.

The purpose of this study was to assess 171 employees' job satisfaction and job commitment using two questionnaires, one to evaluate job satisfaction and one to examine commitment of the respondents to their respective jobs. The Job Satisfaction Questionnaire assessed job security, job status, relations with managers, and relations with colleagues. The desire to fulfill the commitments related to job requirements was tested using the scores on the Organizational Commitment Scale which measures discipline, concern, and updating. Scores on job satisfaction and the desire to fulfill job commitments were correlated; however, scores on job security were not correlated with the motivation towards job fulfillment. Positive satisfaction for relations with managers and with colleagues and job status were significantly correlated with positive job commitment. The canonical variant indicated that those who were disciplined about their work tended to have better relations with their manager...

Purpose-This study aims to expand our knowledge on the processes through which work-family policies relate to work-family conflict as well as work-related attitudes among women in management positions returning to work after maternity leave. Design/methodology/approach-A total of 238 women in management positions who recently have returned to work after maternity leave completed a self-reported questionnaire. Findings-Results show that the availability of policies was either directly or indirectly positively related to work attitudes among female managers. Also, findings show that work-family conflict partially mediates the relationship between the availability of communication and psychological support and flexible time management policies with work engagement, and policy availability moderates the relationship between work-family conflict and work engagement. Originality/value-Managers have a crucial role in conveying the value of work-family policies and in creating a culture supporting the management of work and family. By investigating the processes underlying the role of work-family policies in influencing work attitudes of women in managerial positions, this study sheds light on how the awareness of the available policies might be an important determinant of work-related well-being and organizational commitment.

Although organizational commitment continues to interest researchers because of its positive effects on organizations, we know relatively little about the effects of the ethical context on organizational commitment. As such, we contribute to the organizational commitment field by assessing the effects of ethical climates (Victor and Cullen, 1987, 1988) on organizational commitment. We hypothesized that an ethical climate of benevolence has a positive relationship with organizational commitment while egoistic climate is negatively ...

This research is a preliminary study, which aims to examine the relationship among peer relationship, organizational commitment, organizational culture and job satisfaction. Besides, the mediation role, the study also investigates the significance of job satisfaction. Further, while investigating the moderating impact of psychological capital “PsyCap” between the peer relationship and organizational commitment, it determined that PsyCap strengthens peer relationship and organizational commitment in Pakistan Railways. Thus, at large, job satisfaction had played mediating role between culture and employee commitment. On the other hand, PsyCap has a moderating impact in this study, whereas the job satisfaction does not arbitrate among peer relationships, organizational culture and organizational commitment.

Both conventional wisdom and empirical evidence suggest that arranging a prior commitment or agreement before an interaction takes place enhances the chance of reaching mutual cooperation. Yet it is not clear what mechanisms might underlie the participation in and compliance with such a commitment, especially when participation is costly and non-compliance can be profitable. Here, we develop a theory of participation and compliance with respect to an explicit commitment formation process and to institutional incentives where individuals, at first, decide whether or not to join a cooperative agreement to play a one-shot social dilemma game. Using a mathematical model, we determine whether and when participating in a costly commitment, and complying with it, is an evolutionary stable strategy, resulting in high levels of cooperation. We show that, given a sufficient budget for providing incentives, rewarding of commitment compliant behaviours better promotes cooperation than punishment of non-compliant ones. Moreover, by sparing part of this budget for rewarding those willing to participate in a commitment, the overall level of cooperation can be significantly enhanced for both reward and punishment. Finally, the presence of mistakes in deciding to participate favours evolutionary stability of commitment compliance and cooperation.

This study seeks to broaden our understanding of the popular, yet under-researched, concept of micromanagement in the IT workforce by exploring IT professionals’ trust in the competence of their supervisor as an antecedent to their perceptions of being micromanaged. The study also explores whether felt responsibility is the mechanism via which micromanagement negatively affects IT professionals’ job satisfaction and organizational commitment, both proximal factors of turnover. These relationships are explored under the aegis of the Management Control Systems models, leader-member exchange theory, and the job characteristics model. Results indicate that trust in supervisor
competence is a significant antecedent to IT professionals’ perceptions of being micromanaged and that felt responsibility fully mediates the relationship between micromanagement and organizational commitment. The findings underscore the importance of building IT professionals’ trust in their supervisor’s competence and suggest that organizations proactively provide early intervention to negate the potential adverse impact on organizational outcomes.

State policies and programs in the Philippines have paved the way for more women to participate in the peace and security sector, particularly in the military, in recent years. These policies are incorporated in the larger gender and development (GAD) policy of the government. This article assesses whether the GAD policies and programs actually translate to the retention of female military personnel in the Philippine Navy, one of the three branches of service of the Armed Forces of the Philippines. It measures the satisfaction of female military personnel on policies on women empowerment and protection against sexual violence, together with job satisfaction and organizational commitment, and evaluates whether these factors have an effect in their decision to stay or leave the military profession. The revised gendered model shows that the most significant factor affecting the intention of female soldiers of the Philippine Navy to stay is organizational commitment while job satisfaction has more direct and significant positive effect on organizational commitment, with satisfaction on women empowerment and participation having a direct positive effect on both organizational commitment and job satisfaction. The female soldiers' experience of sexual harassment in the organization lowers their level of satisfaction on the organization's programs on women empowerment and participation.

Although the majority of empirical commitment research has adopted a variable-centered approach, the person-centered or profiles approach is gaining traction. One challenge in the commitment profiles literature is that names are attached to profiles based on the within-study comparison among profiles and their relative levels and shapes. Thus, it is possible that different studies name the same profiles differently or different profiles similarly because of the context of the other profiles in the study. A meta-analytic approach, combined with multilevel latent profile analysis (LPA) that accounts for both within-and between-sample variability, is used in this study to examine the antecedents and outcomes of commitment profiles. This helps solve the naming problem by examining multiple data sets (K 40) with a large sample (N 16,052), obtained by contacting commitment researchers who voluntarily supplied primary data to bring further consensus about the phenomenology of profiles. LPA results revealed 5 profiles (Low, Moderate, AC-dominant, AC/ NC-dominant, and High). Meta-analytic results revealed that high levels of bases of commitment were associated with value-based profiles whereas low levels were associated with weak commitment profiles. Additionally, value-based profiles were associated with older, married, and less educated participants than the weak commitment profiles. Regarding outcomes of commitment, profiles were found to significantly relate to focal behaviors (e.g., performance, tenure, and turnover) and discretionary behaviors (e.g., organizational citizenship behaviors). Value-based profiles were found to have higher levels of both focal and discretionary behaviors for all analyses. Implications for the commitment and profile literature are discussed.

The intensity of competition emerging in each area with globalization directly affects businesses. In order to be able to sustain their continuity in this intense competitive environment, enterprises have to understand their organizational structures and increase their employees' satisfaction. Businesses can increase the satisfaction of their customers as long as their employees keep the pleasure they have at the top level. Increased customer satisfaction leads to a competitive advantage by providing directprofitability to the business. The sympathy that employees have against their businesses is generally confronted as organizational trust.Transparency in administration, equality of justice and equality, identification, organizational culture, loyal commitment, organizational citizenship behavior increase the belief that is givento the organisation. The constant change of the staff for the business is seen as one of the biggest obstacles to the establishment of organizational trust.Personnel circulation has a direct negative impact on co-existence when considering the adaptation of new staff, the evaluation of work efficiency, the analysis of skills, and the improvement of work efficiency. Employees who are directly in contact with customersincrease profitability,attitudes and activities. Since employees are directly in contact with profitable customers, they are able to represent their attitudes and activities. Businesses should identify and increase their organizational trust and job satisfaction in order to create a steady growth and competitive advantage. In this study, organizational trust and job satisfaction are examined and it is aimed to investigate the effects of organizational trust on job satisfaction. The main purpose of working in this direction is to learn the organizational trust and job satisfaction that the employees in public and private banks in Kastamonu province and surrounding provinces are perceived. The universe of the research is the public and private banks in the provinces and districts of Kastamonu. A face-to-face survey was conducted between 16.11.2017 and 01.01.2018 in order to determine the perceived organizational trust and job satisfaction. The obtained data will contribute to the establishment of the strategies that will be formed within the scope of organizational trust and employees' job satisfaction of the enterprises and it will contribute to the determination of the analytical information necessary for providing better quality services by increasing satisfaction in the service areas.
