Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to apply the self-concept theory and conservation of resources theory to develop a model that explains how both corporate social responsibility (CSR) and ethical leadership influence turnover intention through work engagement and burnout. Design/methodology/approach - A survey of employees from banking industry in Taiwan and the research hypotheses were empirically tested by two-step structural equation modeling (SEM) and regression analysis. Findings - The empirical findings indicate that CSR and ethical leadership are both related to work engagement positively and burnout negatively. Turnover intention is affected by work engagement negatively and burnout positively. While the relationship between CSR and work engagement is positively moderated by ethical leadership, the relationship between burnout and turnover intention is negatively moderated by self-efficacy. Research limitations/implications - This study confirms that both CSR and ethical leadership play critical roles for influencing turnover intention through the mediation of work engagement and burnout. The moderating effects of ethical leadership and self-efficacy are also presented in this study. Practical implications - The authors' findings bring some suggestions for managers who want to prevent high turnover intention from spreading all over their organization. Specifically, CSR and ethical leadership should be taken into account when managers develop their strategies to reduce turnover intention. Originality/value - This study analyzes how turnover intention takes shape from ethical perspectives and through which work-related state of mind (such as burnout, work engagement) can turnover intention be eventually affected.

This study proposes a model based on coopetition theory drawn from economics literature to explain the formation of team agility and performance. In the proposed model, team performance and team agility are affected by collectivism, team politics, transformational leadership, and transactional leadership via the mediation of coopetition and team empowerment. Team performance is also impacted by team agility. Empirical testing of this model, by investigating team personnel in information technology (IT) organizations, confirms the applicability of coopetition among IT working teams. Based on this study\'s empirical findings, managerial implications for building up teamwork and research limitations are provided. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Social networking sites (SNS) have become to date one of the most important technological tools in the world. To explore the key factors affecting users\' continuance intention of using SNS, this study applies the positive mood theory to explain why users continue to use SNS. The empirical results find that fear of missing out (FoMO) and enjoyment are both positively related to continuance intention, whereas negative affect is negatively related to continuance intention. Perceived usefulness positively moderates the relationship between enjoyment and continuance intention and that between negative affect and continuance intention. Perceived information privacy risk positively moderates the relationship between FoMO and continuance intention. This study contributes to the literature by applying the positive mood theory to explore the determinants of users\' continuance intention of using SNS. We also provide managerial implications and research limitations. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc All rights reserved.

This study complements previous literature by bridging activity theory and the broaden-and-build theory to examine how happiness (as an intrinsic driver) and knowledge sharing (as an extrinsic driver) influence team performance. The contributions of this study are twofolds. First, this study fills a research gap concerning what mediates the simultaneous influences of happiness and knowledge sharing on team performance. Second, both main and moderating effects of happiness in the development of team performance are explored in this study, which is rarely discussed in the literature. By surveying 116 teams from high-tech firms in Taiwan, this study opens a black box regarding the mediation of team proactivity and team proficiency and the moderation of happiness in the development of team performance. Lastly, managerial implications and limitations based on the empirical findings are provided.

Purpose To deepen our understanding about the development of team performance, the purpose of this paper is to develop a model that explains how ambidexterity and ethical leadership affect knowledge sharing and team performance through within-team competition. Design/methodology/approach This study demonstrates the applicability of ambidexterity and within-team competition by surveying 78 teams from the high-tech and banking industries. This study further presents a three-way interaction among ambidexterity, politics and job complexity. Findings This study finds that both ambidexterity and ethical leadership are positively related to knowledge sharing and team performance through the mediation of team development competition. Originality/value This study confirms that ambidexterity and ethical leadership play critical factors for improving knowledge sharing and team performance through the mediation of team development competition. Furthermore, the moderating effects of politics and job complexity are also confirmed in the research.

Purpose - To complement previous research on team performance, the purpose of this paper is to analyze the development of team performance and top management approval at the team level. In the proposed model, team performance and top management approval are influenced by the team leader's charisma, teamwork exhaustion, and goal clarity via the full mediation of team planning. The effects of the leader's charisma and goal clarity on team planning are moderated by teamwork exhaustion. Design/methodology/approach - Empirical testing of this model based on hierarchical regression modeling, by investigating team personnel in high-tech firms, confirms the applicability of team planning among these firms' work teams. Findings - A team leader's charisma and goal clarity positively relate to team planning, while teamwork exhaustion is not associated with team planning. Team planning further positively relates to team performance and top management approval, respectively. A team leader's charisma negatively moderates the relationship between teamwork exhaustion and team planning, while goal clarity positively moderates the relationship between teamwork exhaustion and team planning. Originality/value - While previous literature has focused in depth on team planning and its antecedents and outcomes, there still exists an important gap regarding potential moderation in the formation of team planning. This study provides some important findings that complement previous literature by examining three fresh exogenous determinants for explaining team planning, their interaction effects, and how they indirectly relate to team performance and top management approval via the full mediation of team planning.

This study develops a research model based on social identity theory and emotion regulation research to evaluate the performance development of work teams in technology industry. Empirical testing of this study, by investigating team personnel in high-tech firms, confirms some of the critical hypotheses in our moderated mediation model. The test results find that team performance is influenced by team identification which is affected by inclusive leadership and effort-respect mismatch. Besides, dysfunctional behavior is also influenced by indusive leadership and effort-respect mismatch. Whereas the relationships between effort-respect mismatch and dysfunctional behavior and between inclusive leadership and team identification are moderated by negative affective tone, the relationship between dysfunctional behavior and team performance is moderated by resource adequacy.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose a moderated mediation model to explain how corporate social responsibility (CSR) and ethical leadership influence knowledge sharing and job dedication through the mediating mechanism of positive affective tone and cognitive meaningfulness. Design/methodology/approach The research hypotheses were empirically tested using a survey of employees from the high-tech industry in Taiwan. The research constructs in this study were measured using five-point Likert scales modified from existing literature. The survey data were empirically analyzed with two-step structural equation modeling (SEM) and regression analysis. Findings The empirical results of this study reveal that CSR and ethical leadership positively relate to positive affective tone and cognitive meaningfulness. Knowledge sharing is positively affected by positive affective tone whereas job dedication is positively affected by positive affective tone and cognitive meaningfulness. While the relationship between positive affective tone and job dedication is positively moderated by job demand, the relationship between cognitive meaningfulness and job dedication is negatively moderated by job demand. Originality/value This study elucidates the ethical influences from organizations (i.e. CSR) and leaders (i.e. ethical leadership) respectively to explain affective and cognitive processes involved in work situations. At the same time, by clarifying the moderating role of job demand, this study provides valuable implications for managers to effectively leverage job demand for increasing employees' job dedication.
