Sense of calling in the workplace: The moderating effect of supportive organizational climate in Taiwanese organizations

Abstract: The sense of calling has emerged as a burgeoning research interest for the past decade due to its close connection to the meaningfulness of work. However, the effects of a sense of calling and how it functions in the workplace remain unclear. This study aims at enhancing the concept of calling and understanding its application in organizations. Therefore, a cross-level model was proposed according to data collected from 24 organizations in Taiwan. As a result, our study demonstrated that sense of calling is po… Show more

“…Organizational climate is typically described as an aggregation of employee perceptions and interpretations of the organization's policies, procedures, and practices [55]. Indeed, existing literature has well documented the moderating effect of organizational climate on the relationship between employees' psychological states and their outcome behaviors [56,57]. In particular, green organizational climate refers to employee perceptions and interpretations of the organization's pro-environmental policies, procedures, and practices [8,10].…”

“…In the academic literature, many studies illustrated that a sense of calling is beneficial for employees themselves and their employing organizations. Empirical studies have found that employees with a calling report greater psychological and subjective career success (Praskova et al, 2014; Xie et al, 2016), well-being (Duffy and Dik, 2013; Duffy et al, 2017), in- role (Park et al, 2016; Lee et al, 2018) and extra-role performance (Park et al, 2016; Xie et al, 2017; Lee et al, 2018).…”

“…In addition, the present conceptual scheme only considers the individual-level moderator variable. However, as Lee et al (2018) argue, an individual's sense of calling exerts a positive influence on their behavior and will vary depending on their working environment (e.g., organizational climate). Therefore, future research may consider other moderating variables (such as a supportive climate and an empowerment climate), which are recognized as positive and may be critical to encouraging those with callings to conduct behaviors that organizations prefer.…”
