“…To encourage existing workers to develop based on experience should be less v ulnerable than recruiting new personnel without knowledge on the working system. To support continuous learning helps enhance work engagement among personnel and add value to the organization (Malik and Garg, 2017). To make the learning organisation possible requires having commitment and coming up with an idea that the organizational success is also their success.…”

The purpose of this study is to find solutions to the epidemic crisis by using knowledge management (KM) and learning organization (LO) to assess their work engagement and organizational commitment in employees. The sample group in this study is 392 management personnel in the hotel industry in Bangkok, Thailand. The study uses the quantitative research methodology and the structural equation model analysis. The results of the study revealed that KM has a direct influence on the intermediate variable, namely, LO, and an indirect effect on LO with a correlation to work engagement and organisational commitment (p < 0.05). The study represented almost variables has impact to each other. Human resource development could take into account the context and adapt the organization to be flexible and enthusiastic about learning amid changing circumstances, as well as understanding the condition of personnel in the organsation.

PurposeThe paper examines the role of learning organization in enhancing employees’ proactive work behavior. Furthermore, drawing on the conjectures of broaden-and-build and conservation of resources theory, this study tested the mediating role of employee resilience on the relationship between learning organization and proactive work behavior.Design/methodology/approachThe data for this study were collected over two measurement periods (six months apart) via a structured questionnaire among Indian IT/ITES (Information Technology Enabled Services) organizational employees. The study utilized confirmatory factor analysis to test the proposed measurement model. Additionally, the study employed Preacher and Hayes PROCESS macro to investigate the mediating effect of employee resilience.FindingsThe study results demonstrated that employee’s perceptions of learning organization (measured at time 1) positively predict proactive work behavior (measured at time 2), with the relationship being mediated by employee resilience (measured at time 1).Practical implicationsThe study asserts that organizational practitioners who aim to boost their employees’ proactive behavior need to first invest in nurturing learning organization and focus on building their employees’ resilient capability. As a matter of fact, despite focusing on alleviating the adverse events and chiefly emphasizing on stress management, the organizational practitioners should concentrate on building their employees’ resilient capability.Originality/valueThe present study explores the links between learning organization, employee resilience and proactive work behavior. This study tested a cohesive research model to investigate the role of both the contextual and individual resilient capability in enhancing employee proactivity at work. Furthermore, the study unfolds the underlying mechanism between the study variables by exploring the mediating role of employee resilience.

“…As, IT experts are constantly required to network with internal members and external clients (George and Chattopadhyay, 2005), structures for sharing information encourage employees to exchange knowledge, which seemingly boost levels of employee engagement (Purushothaman, 2015). Essentially, in the present era of continual innovation and ceaseless technological upgradation, competitive advantages lie with the organizations that focus on investing in innovative and transparentembedded knowledge sharing networks that are freely accessible to their employees' ubiquitously according to their requisite (Malik and Garg, 2017b;Pan et al, 2018). Hence, in this boundary less era of intensive learning, the exchange of knowledge and information becomes crucial as it helps in disseminating accurate, timely and complete information, which addresses employees' concerns and, thus, build a positive attitude among employees and further enhance their engagement levels (Malik and Garg, 2017a).…”

Purpose This study aims to ascertain the impact of perceived knowledge sharing systems on destructive and constructive deviance through employee engagement. Also, this study explores the moderating role of perceived organizational support (POS). Design/methodology/approach Data were collected from 403 entry-level IT employees. Structural equation modeling and PROCESS macro by Preacher and Hayes were used to examine the proposed hypotheses. Findings Results specified a significant impact of perceived knowledge sharing systems on employee engagement, which in turn, exhibited a negative relationship with a destructive and positive relationship with constructive deviance, respectively. Results revealed that employee engagement significantly mediated the relationship between perceived knowledge sharing systems and destructive and constructive deviance. Concerning moderating role of POS, it was found that at a high level of POS, the effect of knowledge sharing systems on employee engagement was significant in a positive direction and reached its highest level. Finally, for moderated mediation, results only supported the indirect effects of knowledge sharing systems on destructive deviance through employee engagement at different levels of POS. Research limitations/implications This study infers that IT organizations must implement measures to enhance employee engagement and POS by investing in embedded knowledge sharing systems. This will not only cater to the customized needs of employees but will also reduce destructive deviance and stimulate constructive deviance. Originality/value Given a few studies integrating workplace deviance, this is the first study that proposes an integrated process model to overcome destructive and stimulate constructive deviance among IT employees by assessing the role of knowledge sharing systems as an antecedent, employee engagement as a mediator and POS as a moderating variable.
