AbstractThis study investigates the connection between employees’ experience of time-related work stress and their job performance, with a particular focus on the mediating role of their propensity to engage in negative gossip and the moderating role of their collectivistic orientation. The results based on multisource, three-wave data from employees, their peers, and supervisors in Pakistani organizations show that an important reason that time-related work stress might diminish job performance is that employees expend significant energy discussing their negative evaluations of other organizational members with peers, possibly as a way to protect their self-esteem resources. This mediating role of gossip is also invigorated by employees’ collectivistic orientation. For organizations, this study identifies a key mechanism – informal conversations with peers about the flaws of others in the organization – by which time-related stress prevents employees from allocating sufficient energy to completing their job tasks, and it reveals that this process is more likely among collectivistic employees.

Controlling is a method, which is most often used in contemporary organizations. The expectation of improvement of the organization’s results is the most important reason of controlling implementation. The relation between controlling use and organizational performance is often taken for granted, however there are no comprehensive research explaining in detail how it affects results of organization functioning. The article attempted to fill in the existing research gap and explain how controlling affects results of organization functioning. The analysis concerned the impact of controlling use on both job performance and organizational performance. Since the job performance in case of controlling is increasingly dependent on the IT solutions, the analysis concerned the impact of IT reliability and User Experience (UX) on the developed model of the controlling influence on organizational performance. In that context the aim of the article was to clarify the mechanism of controlling use influence on organizational performance – considering the mediating role of job performance of employees and moderating role of IT solutions (the impact of UX and IT reliability on the relations between controlling, job performance and organizational performance). Formulated hypotheses were verified empirically on the sample of 637 organizations (349 operating in Poland and 288 operating in Switzerland). The presented results of empirical research allowed for the construction of a mediating model demonstrating the impact of controlling use on both job performance and organizational performance and shown that UX and IT reliability are moderators of the relation between the controlling use and job performance, and the relation between job performance and organizational performance.
