“…Similarly, we can say one-unit change in employees' engagement will affect the performance of an employee by 0.272 %. In the existing literature, we find employee engagement positively contributed to the employee's performance in Lemon and Boman (2022), Nagpal (2022), Rasool et al (2021).…”

“…Need for meaningfulness, which refers to the positive feedback and returns on investment when the employee fulfills their self-role. Need for safety and availability, which ensures growth and empowerment without fear of negative consequences (Lemon & Boman, 2022). An organization that does not meet the desired need will bring up demotivated and less involved employees, individuals will pull back and will be less committed to the roles.…”

This research aims to investigate the moderating effect of employee engagement on the association between learning organization practices and employees' subjective performance in Pakistan's energy sector. Seven elements of Learning organization practices and employee perceptions of their success in developing financial markets are the focus of this research. We have selected a sample of 550 professionals through questionnaires. The snowball sampling technique was used to reach the maximum number of employees, because it assumed that the creativity of an economy depends upon the innovativeness of an organization’s employees. Out of 550, we received only 330 useable questionnaires for data analysis with a response rate of 78% in person and online resources. There are also utilized Pearson correlation and direct regression analysis to measure the relationship among variables. The impact of learning organizations on the subjective performance of employees is found positive and highly significant in the energy sector of Pakistan. Likewise, the moderating role of employees’ engagement is also noted as remarkable in the above relationship. The study recommends that all seven dimensions of learning organization practices should be considered by the management of financial firms to enhance the subjective performance of the employees in the energy sector of Pakistan. Employees’ engagement can accelerate the development of the energy sector. The above-mentioned aspect of financial firms and institutions of the developed countries, whereas the developing countries are relatively less explored on the topic. It is worthwhile to explore this relationship for the energy sector of Pakistan.

“…Fisher and Tronto (1990) pointed out that caring requires time, resources, knowledge and skills, which are limited and forces us to make choices. They identified four steps associated with caring including caring about (i.e., recognizing needs), taking care of (i.e., assuming responsibility for caring), caregiving (i.e., hands-on work) and care-receiving (e.g., response by the one receiving care) (Fisher and Tronto, 1990; Lemon and Boman, 2022).…”

“…Similarly, ethics of care is a moral perspective that involves a concern for others, particularly those who are impacted by decisions (Derry, 2005). Lemon and Boman (2022) claimed that there has been a “minimal embrace” of ethics of care due to ties to “feminine virtues and values,” and the fact it still considered to be in the conceptualization phase (p. 4). However, in a recent study, Plaisance et al (2021) found that public relations leaders considered both fairness/justice and care concerns when making ethical decisions.…”

Are servant leadership and ethics of care being practiced by public relations leaders? This study involved in-depth interviews with 32 public relations leaders working in a variety of organizational settings in the United States and provided insights from men and women, including people of color. We found evidence of an “other oriented approach” to leadership that involved prioritizing the needs and concerns of employees and a genuine concern for the wellbeing of others. The findings are consistent with characteristics associated with both servant leadership and ethics of care. The public relations leaders were able to provide specific examples of how these perspectives impacted their decision making and specific ways they demonstrate that they care about their employees. The leaders engaged in active listening, which allowed them to identify employee needs. They then had to access whether or not they could meet those needs, and at times that involved assisting employees in leaving the organization. Implications for theory and practice are included.

“…It implies that the corporation should be responsible and attentive, recognize the stakeholders’ needs, and be competent to respond to them. Caring practices and values should consequently encompass trust building, mutual respect and concern, responsiveness to needs, mutually beneficial relationships, human flourishing, and communication within the organization ( Formentin and Bortree, 2019 ; Madden et al, 2022 ; Lemon and Boman, 2022 ). And all this can be done through the various CSR actions, but specially through corporate donations, which will improve the quality of life of the various stakeholders and concretely will solve social problems as Inditex had done during the pandemic as it will be analyzed as follows.…”
