This empirical study examines the conceptual model of employee’s dissatisfaction to lead creative behavior. When employee feels that he/she has potentially to perform as a creative person, he/she will express their dissatisfaction through voice. Based on the exit-voice theory and empirical studies of organizational creativity (Zhou and George, 2003), this study identify two variables that potentially play a role on the relationship between job dissatisfaction and employee’ creativity, there are, continuance commitment and perceived organizational support. A number of hypotheses empirically to be proved. Interesting findings indicate that the perceived organizational support contribute on how individuals shape their job dissatisfaction led to creative behavior among employees in service organizations.

<span>This study questions the conventional wisdom that strategic change and a rapid pace of change are necessary for firm survival in a changing environment. Recognizing the potential costs of strategic change, we argue that conventional wisdom might be oversimplified. Drawing on the U.S. trucking industry and its deregulation, this paper concludes that mere change in strategy is insufficient to guarantee organizational survival and success, and hasty change may exert a negative impact on firm performance. Conclusions drawn from this study should be given appropriate caveats since we focus on conditions idiosyncratic to strategic change prompted by industry deregulation.</span>
