“…Organizational citizenship behavior for the environment (OCBE) is defined as voluntary and unrewarded environmental actions that go above and beyond the job requirements in an organizational setting (Neessen et al , 2021). OCBE is developed as a part of the theory of planned behavior (TPB).…”

Purpose This study aims to investigate the relationship between organizational citizenship behavior for the environment (OCBE) of managers and the constructs of the theory of planned behavior: perceived behavioral control (PBC) and attitude toward the environment. The current study also aims to explore the magnitude of this relationship with subjective norms as a moderating variable. Design/methodology/approach Data were sourced from a total number of 140 respondents (managers) from different firms in The Netherlands through an online questionnaire by using a mixture of structured, semi-structured and open-ended questions. Having used the correlation test, the study first conducts the exploratory factor analysis and then the reliability test. Finally, it estimates the coefficients by applying the hierarchical regression model to find the relationship between dependent and explanatory variables. Findings Diagnostic test results revealed that data are highly reliable. The coefficient results indicate that PBC and environmental attitude have positive and significant relationships with OCBE. Additionally, subjective norms have a significant and positive effect on strengthening the relationship between PBC and OCBE; however, it has no impact on the relationship between environmental attitude and OCBE. Research limitations/implications This study has some caveats. First, the results presented in the research are derived from a single moment in time. The second limitation has to do with the insignificant results for the construct of environmental attitude. Third, this study comprises a data set obtained from different companies in The Netherlands. Practical implications Organizations that want to increase their environmental performance could look at the PBC, environmental attitude and subjective norms of the managers in regard to OCBE. Originality/value The results of the study contribute to the understanding of the way PBC, environmental attitude and subjective norms positively affect OCBE. Future research should investigate organizational citizenship within business firms by considering corporate social responsibility as a key variable.

“…If employees are assigned a task to accomplish in a stipulated period, a few of the coherent tasks may not be explicitly included in the calculation of compensation. This could be either because of unavailability of task-value or could be due to intentional cut in the framework of compensation devising strategy (Neessen et al, 2021). Whatsoever, it is important to x a value (preferably in monetary value) for each sub-task, this not only will enable to understand the process but also makes the process transparent (Urrila, 2021).…”

This research weighs significantly on challenging the present practice of compensation and rewards. Traditionally or conventionally, the organization reciprocates the gratitude to their employees in monetary terms. Non-monetary rewards being an exclusive section, it is not discussed in this research paper. Among the direct rewards, whether the companies should practice compensating their employees a fixed salary or pay only incentives for the tasks that are achieved? this question may not be welcomed by any employee as it touches the sensitive quotient. Nevertheless, organizations need to understand the right practice in the right era by implementing an intelligent framework. Equity Theory developed by Adams is laid as a foundation to encounter the present unfair reward system. Concurrent mixed-mode method research is done with 162 respondents (quantitative) and 15 respondents (qualitative). Multivariate analysis using SmartPLS 3.3.3 is executed to assess the measurement model and structural model to analyze the covariance between the constructs. The outcome of research claims that it is an ideal practice to implement task-based incentives in organizations rather than paying fixed salaries irrespective of the size or productivity of companies.

“…However, relatively few studies actually analyzed how intrapreneurship is successful in opportunity recognition ( Neessen et al, 2021 ), and the relationship is not firmly established. The basic assumption of our model is that individuals when engaging in intrapreneurship, influenced by underlying cognitive tendencies ( Neessen et al, 2019 ; Cherrington et al, 2021 ), can be more successful in opportunity recognition by applying their own abilities from the current environment ( Gawke et al, 2017 ; Neessen et al, 2021 ). Moreover, the effect of intrapreneurship on opportunity recognition can be explained by analyzing the links between psychological factors, environmental factors and individual behaviors ( Wakkee et al, 2010 ; Blanka, 2019 ).…”

“…Moreover, the effect of intrapreneurship on opportunity recognition can be explained by analyzing the links between psychological factors, environmental factors and individual behaviors ( Wakkee et al, 2010 ; Blanka, 2019 ). Therefore, from the two aspects of internal psychological and external environmental factors, this paper intends to analyze why intrapreneurship can be successful in opportunity recognition ( Neessen et al, 2021 ) via social cognitive theory ( Bandura, 1997 , 2012 , 2018 ).…”

According to social cognitive theory, this study explored the relationship between intrapreneurship and opportunity recognition. We developed a moderated mediation model of creative self-efficacy as a mediator and support for innovation as a moderator linking intrapreneurship with opportunity recognition. Using a sample of 206 college students from Chinese universities, we found that intrapreneurship is positively related to opportunity recognition, and this relationship was mediated by creative self-efficacy. Our research further found that the effect of intrapreneurship on opportunity recognition was conditional on support for innovation. Finally, the theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
