Work to Family Facilitation considers that time and other resources spent on the job by an individual can have a positive impact on family life. The current study tests to what extent this perception affects the employee’s level of job satisfaction, affective commitment, and self-rated job performance. A systematic random sample of 293 faculty members from 30 public and private universities of Pakistan filled an online survey. Results from path analysis performed in AMOS indicate that Work to Family Facilitation is significant and positive predictors of all three outcomes variables. Moreover, both job satisfaction and affective commitment mediate path leading from work to family facilitation and self-rated job performance such that job satisfaction precedes affective commitment in the causal chain. Hence by devising family-friendly HR policies, effective job designs and fostering environment that is family supportive will result in enhanced employee performance. Similarly hiring employees with resourceful psychological traits or interventions to enhance resourceful psychological states can result in greater perception of work to family facilitation. Discussion and implications are followed by future research directions.

Purpose The changing environment of today’s organizations creates an atmosphere ripe for emotions. This ebb and flow of emotions need to be managed to facilitate positive outcomes such as job satisfaction. This paper aims to provide evidence that emotional intelligence directly impacts one’s satisfaction at work. This paper attempts to go beyond these higher-order findings to examine the dimensional aspects of emotional intelligence and the impact each one has on job satisfaction. Design/methodology/approach Using a quantitative survey conducted among 427 US-based workers, this paper tests a disaggregated emotional intelligence model and its hypothesized relationships with job satisfaction through structural equation modeling (SEM). Additional analysis includes confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and a two-stage common method variance assessment. Findings The results confirmed the positive impact of the dimensions of emotional intelligence on job satisfaction. However, with interactive effects in place, the results also found signs of reciprocal suppression and could not confirm that all four emotional intelligence dimensions significantly and positively related to job satisfaction. Originality/value These findings are significant in that they are among the first to elaborate on the dimensions of emotional intelligence and their role in the improvement of one’s satisfaction at work. Further, these findings legitimize the use of the theoretical higher-order model of emotional intelligence in lieu of investigating its dimensional aspects.

This paper explores the effects of flexible working arrangements on employees and their managers in a service sector. Analyzing a case study of a global management consultancy, the study concerns the impact of flexible working arrangements on job satisfaction, commitment and performance as well as well-being. While it is generally accepted that flexible working arrangements have a positive impact on employees, there has been only limited theorizing and research explaining how and why such impact is generated and which contextual organizational factors might be significant in shaping the outcome. The study provides mixed evidence for benefits from flexible working arrangements where potential for increased employee performance, well-being and job satisfaction is offset by work intensification, blurred work/home boundaries, professional isolation and perceived organizational injustice. Practical implications of the study results have been intensified by accelerated organizational transition into flexible working arrangements caused by restrictions imposed as a result of Covid-19 pandemic.

Employee performance has a crucial and decisive role in achieving an organization's success. This research conducted at PT. Madubaru Yogyakarta to investigate the impact of training that employees have participated in and empowerment on performance mediated by job satisfaction. Fifty employees of PT. Madubaru Yogyakarta used as a sample during this study. Data analysis and hypothesis testing using SEM-PLS 3.2.8. This study found that training that had been attended by employees and empowerment had a significant positive effect on performance, yet as on job satisfaction. Job satisfaction alone features a significant positive impact on performance. Indirectly, job satisfaction is in a position to mediate the effect of training and individual empowerment on indirect performance, and the indirect effect is essential and decisive. PT. Madubaru Yogyakarta is suggested within the use of coaching methods to be more accurate in order to achieve the training objectives and therefore the direction of employee empowerment is more emphasized on improving performance instead of merely increasing employee satisfaction at work. Realize the targets set by the corporate within the future, the amount of employee satisfaction at work and current performance still has to be improved in order that employee contributions recover.Kinerja karyawan memiliki peran penting dan menjadi penentu untuk mencapai kesuksesan suatu organisasi, Penelitian ini dilakukan di PT. Madubaru Yogyakarta untuk menganalisis dampak pelatihan yang pernah diikuti karyawan dan pemberdayaan terhadap kinerja yang dimediasi oleh kepuasan kerja. Limapuluh karyawan PT. Madubaru Yogyakarta dijadikan sampel dalam penelitian ini. Analisis data dan pengujian hipotesis menggunakan SEM-PLS 3.2.8. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa pelatihan yang pernah diikuti karyawan maupun pemberdayaan berdampak signifikan yang positif terhadap kinerja, demikian pula terhadap kepuasan kerja. Kepuasan kerja sendiri, memiliki dampak signifikan yang positif terhadap kinerja. Secaara tidak langsung, kepuasan kerja mampu menjembatani pengaruh pelatihan maupun pemberdayaan secara individual terhadap kinerja secara tidak langsung, pengaruh tidak langsung tersebut bersifat signifikan dan positif. PT. Madubaru Yogyakarta disarankan dalam penggunaan metode pelatihan untuk lebih akurat agar tujuan pelatihan dapat tercapai serta arah pemberdayaan karyawan lebih ditekankan pada peningkatan kinerja bukan sekedar meningkatkan rasa puas karyawan dalam bekerja. Untuk mencapai target yang ditetapkan perusahaan di masa depan, maka tingkat kepuasan karyawan dalam bekerja maupun kinerja yang ada saat ini masih perlu ditingkatkan agar kontribusi karyawan semakin baik.

Growth and success of an organisation are primarily dependent on its ability to develop, leverage, and utilise its knowledge base. This study developed a model to test the impact of antecedents of knowledge Sharing (KS) on team performance. The antecedents were classified as organisational characteristics (structure, learning culture, employee training, reward system, top management support) and individual characteristic (emotional intelligence). The study is based on data collected with the help of structured questionnaires from 582 team members working under 69 teams in 26 surveyed organisations in India. Results suggest that high emotional intelligence increases the extent of KS and hence, has positive impact on team performance among cross-functional team members. Moreover, mutual trust among team members moderates KS behaviour and team performance. Thus, findings confirm the applicability and predictive power of the proposed model. Furthermore, this model contributes to the literature of predicting KS practices in cross-functional projects.
