Download or read book Impact of Compassion on Abusive Supervision written by Kullawadee Yodjun and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examined whether compassion mitigates the abusive supervision aftermaths; decreased in job satisfaction, organizational citizenship behavior and supervisor helping behavior, and voluntary turnover by conducting a time-lagged field study. Participants were asked to complete two sets of online survey. The mediator presented in this study was interactional justice, in order to explain the relationship between abusive supervision and its antecedents. The hypothesized models were analyzed by the regression-based path analysis (Hayes, 2017; Preacher, Rucker, & Hayes, 2007). The findings supported the observation suggested by Tepper (2000) regarding the possibility of interactional justice be a suitable mediator to explain the relationship between abusive supervision and dependent variables, which were job satisfaction, organizational citizenship behavior. Although parts of the results suggested mixed findings on the relationship between abusive supervision and supervisor helping behavior and voluntary turnover. The result suggested that compassion mitigated most of the indirect effects of abusive supervision through interactional justice.
Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of Compassion Science by : Emma M. Seppälä
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Compassion Science written by Emma M. Seppälä and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-26 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we define compassion? Is it an emotional state, a motivation, a dispositional trait, or a cultivated attitude? How does it compare to altruism and empathy? Chapters in this Handbook present critical scientific evidence about compassion in numerous conceptions. All of these approaches to thinking about compassion are valid and contribute importantly to understanding how we respond to others who are suffering. Covering multiple levels of our lives and self-concept, from the individual, to the group, to the organization and culture, The Oxford Handbook of Compassion Science gathers evidence and models of compassion that treat the subject of compassion science with careful scientific scrutiny and concern. It explores the motivators of compassion, the effect on physiology, the co-occurrence of wellbeing, and compassion training interventions. Sectioned by thematic approaches, it pulls together basic and clinical research ranging across neurobiological, developmental, evolutionary, social, clinical, and applied areas in psychology such as business and education. In this sense, it comprises one of the first multidisciplinary and systematic approaches to examining compassion from multiple perspectives and frames of reference. With contributions from well-established scholars as well as young rising stars in the field, this Handbook bridges a wide variety of diverse perspectives, research methodologies, and theory, and provides a foundation for this new and rapidly growing field. It should be of great value to the new generation of basic and applied researchers examining compassion, and serve as a catalyst for academic researchers and students to support and develop the modern world.
Book Synopsis The Moral Psychology of Compassion by : Justin Caouette
Download or read book The Moral Psychology of Compassion written by Justin Caouette and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compassion is widely regarded as an important moral emotion – a fitting response to various cases of suffering and misfortune. Yet contemporary theorists have rarely given it sustained attention. This volume aims to fill this gap by offering answers to a number of questions surrounding this emotion. These questions include: What is the nature of compassion? How does compassion differ from other emotions, such as empathy, pity, or gratitude? Is compassion a virtue? Can we have too much compassion? How does compassion influence other mental states (desires, motivations, beliefs, and intentions) and behaviour? How is compassion influenced by the environment? Must compassion be deserved? Can one be moral while lacking the capacity for compassion? Compassion, like other emotions, has many facets – biological, social, psychological and neural, among others. The contributors to this volume will draw on a variety of disciplines and methods in order to develop a more systematic and comprehensive understanding of this often-neglected moral emotion.
Book Synopsis Understanding the High Performance Workplace by : Neal M. Ashkanasy
Download or read book Understanding the High Performance Workplace written by Neal M. Ashkanasy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-10 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book asks the crucial question: When does high performance supervision become abusive supervision? As more organizations push to adopt high performance work practices (HPWP), the onus increasingly falls on supervisors to do whatever it takes to maximize the productivity of their work teams. In this rigorous, research-based volume, international contributors offer insight into how and when seemingly-beneficial workplace practices cross the line from motivation to abuse. By reviewing critical issues in both high performance work practices and abusive supervision, it illuminates the crossover between these two modes of work, and forges a path for future scholarship.
Book Synopsis Trauma-Informed Supervision by : Carolyn Knight
Download or read book Trauma-Informed Supervision written by Carolyn Knight and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-29 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Survivors of trauma are disproportionately represented in agencies providing a broad range of behavioral, social, and mental health services. Practitioners in these settings must understand and be able to respond to survivors of trauma in ways that are empowering, normalize and validate their experiences and reactions, and minimize the risk of retraumatization. Practitioners also will be indirectly traumatized as a result of their work with trauma survivors. Practitioners’ ability to help clients with histories of trauma depends upon clinical supervision that is trauma-informed. The trauma-informed supervisor has the dual responsibility of enhancing supervisees’ skills as trauma-informed practitioners and helping them manage the impact their work has on them. Nevertheless, many clinical supervisors only have limited knowledge and training in trauma and may not recognize either the needs of those whom they supervise or the clients their supervisees serve. This book compiles important recommendations from trauma-informed practitioners, supervisors, and researchers who share their professional reflections and personal stories based on their hands-on experiences across mental health and medical contexts. This book was originally published as a special issue of The Clinical Supervisor.

Book Synopsis Handbook of Unethical Work Behavior by : Robert A. Giacalone
Download or read book Handbook of Unethical Work Behavior written by Robert A. Giacalone and published by M.E. Sharpe. This book was released on 2012-09-10 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unethical behavior in the workplace affects countless people every year. Workers in many organizations are subjected to insidious treatment such as harassment, discrimination, and bullying. However, most research and discussion of unethical business behavior has focused solely on its financial and legal effects and not on the health and well-being of the individuals working for the organization. This handbook has been crafted to address this gap. It covers the widest possible range of organizational misbehaviors (age, race, and gender discrimination, abuse, bullying, aggression, violence, fraud and corruption), all with an eye toward the effects on individual and organizational health and well-being. The Handbook is the first-ever single-source resource on this important topic.

Book Synopsis Organizational Compassion by : Ace Volkmann Simpson
Download or read book Organizational Compassion written by Ace Volkmann Simpson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2025-02-12 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organizational compassion provides a multitude of benefits at individual, team and organizational levels. These encompass heightened positive affect, trust, engagement, loyalty, performance, resilience, and recovery. This important book provides an accessible yet scholarly overview of key academic findings and theories on organizational compassion. It equips readers with tools for reflection, awakening and practical application of compassion within the workplace across dyadic, team and organizational contexts. Historically, compassion work has been largely unacknowledged in official organizational discourse. Yet, wherever there are human beings, there will be suffering; where there is human suffering, one can often find human responses infused with kindness and compassion. This observation holds true across industries, professions, and communities. The book explores the complexities of organizational compassion, analyzing the factors that enhance organizational compassion capabilities, as well as those that make compassion falter and fail. The primary aim of this book is to foster the cultivation of organizational compassion by providing a provocative, stimulating and engaging foray into the academic study of organizational compassion for readers, ranging from undergraduate to postgraduate and executive students, as well as reflective practitioners. In a world marked by suffering and challenges, a research-based understanding and fostering of compassion at work, offers a path towards a better future.
Book Synopsis Because Nice Matters by : Olivia K. Childers
Download or read book Because Nice Matters written by Olivia K. Childers and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Workplace deviance costs organizations billions of dollars annually (Bennett & Robinson, 2000) and is responsible for approximately 20% of all business failures (Coffin, 2003). This research examined the potential importance of supervisor abuse, emotional exhaustion, and agreeableness in explaining interpersonal deviance at work. I propose a conceptual model based on the conservation of resources theory and the job demands-resources model asserting that abusive supervision has a direct and an indirect effect on interpersonal deviance through emotional exhaustion; furthermore, this relationship is conditional, such that subordinates high rather than low in agreeableness are more inclined to engage in interpersonal deviance. Data were collected from 347 professional employees who occupied staff roles in a public sector organization. Results indicated that the relationship between reported abusive supervision and interpersonal deviance was fully mediated by emotional exhaustion. Furthermore, this relationship was moderated by employee agreeableness, such that employees who are low in agreeableness were more likely to report engaging in interpersonal deviance.

Book Synopsis On the Causes and Consequences of Abusive Supervision by : Lindie Hanyu Liang
Download or read book On the Causes and Consequences of Abusive Supervision written by Lindie Hanyu Liang and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abusive supervision is a growing problem confronting organizations. In this dissertation, across two essays, I examine both the causes and the consequences of abusive supervision. In Essay 1, I answer the question when and why do supervisors abuse poor performing employees. Building on prior work showing that abusive supervision is a reaction to subordinates' poor performance, I develop a self-control framework to outline when and why supervisors abuse poor performing subordinates. In particular, I argue poor performing subordinates instill in supervisors a sense of hostility towards the subordinate, which in turn leads to engaging in abusive supervision. Within this self-control framework, poor performance is more likely to lead to abusive supervision when (a) the magnitude of the hostility experienced is higher (e.g., for those with a hostile attribution bias), or (b) the translation of hostility into abusive supervision is unconstrained (e.g., for those who are low in trait mindfulness). In two experimental studies with full-time supervisors where we manipulated the independent variable (Study 1) and the mediator (Study 2), and in a multi-wave and multi-source field study with data collected from supervisor-subordinate teams (50 supervisors and 206 subordinates) at two time points (Study 3), I found overall support for our predictions. In Essay 2, I answer the question under what circumstances and why the detrimental effect of abusive supervision on subordinate well-being can be mitigated. When a subordinate receives abusive treatment from a supervisor, a natural response is to retaliate against the supervisor. Although the majority of the abusive supervision literature has suggested that retaliation is dysfunctional and should be discouraged, I offer an alternative narrative by suggesting that retaliation may have a beneficial purpose. Based on the notion that retaliation following mistreatment can restore justice for victims, I propose a functional theory of retaliation and predict that retaliation alleviates the effect of abusive supervision on subordinate well-being by virtue of restoring subordinate justice perceptions. In an experimental study using vignettes (Study 1), two additional experimental studies (Study 2A and 2B), and a field survey study with two independent samples (Study 3), I found general support for our predictions. Overall, the results of these two essays shed light on the phenomenon abusive supervision in terms of understanding its causes and consequences.

Book Synopsis Reactions to Daily Abusive Supervision by : Rushika De Bruin
Download or read book Reactions to Daily Abusive Supervision written by Rushika De Bruin and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abusive supervision is a widely-studied phenomenon experienced by a multitude of workers across organizations. While abusive supervision is typically studied in terms of negative outcomes (i.e., supervisor-directed retaliation), there is some preliminary evidence that not all consequences of abusive supervision are negative. While there have been several studies exploring employee reactions to abusive supervision, they predominantly take a cross-sectional design perspective. The current study utilized 102 full-time employees from the U.S. who responded to 932 daily surveys assessing personality, workplace behaviors, and justice perceptions. The current study explored how perceptions of abusive supervision changed on a day-to-day basis and how those changes in turn impacted employee reactions, including potential positive outcomes that could stem from abusive supervision (e.g., supervisor-directed OCBs). The current study yielded several results. First, results related to actual employee behaviors demonstrated that abusive supervision was related to a decrease in justice perceptions and OCB engagement and an increase in retaliation. However, these effects did not carry forward to the following days. Rather, employees who retaliated more often reported more abusive supervision, potentially as a justification for their behavior. Second, results related to perceptions demonstrated that justice perceptions led to less abusive supervision and more OCBs during the following days. Hostile attribution bias interacted with perceptions of abuse and perceptions of interactional justice to increase employee retaliation. Third, results related to personality demonstrated that Machiavellianism did not interact with abuse or justice to predict retaliation. Psychopathy interacted with abuse to predict reduced retaliation in cases of low abuse. Narcissism and everyday sadism interacted with justice perceptions to predict more retaliation when the situation was deemed unfair. Lastly, none of the individual differences predicted engagement in supervisor-directed OCBs.
Book Synopsis Research and Theory on Workplace Aggression by : Nathan A. Bowling
Download or read book Research and Theory on Workplace Aggression written by Nathan A. Bowling and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 599 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Workplace aggression is a serious problem for workers and their employers. As such, an improved scientific understanding of workplace aggression has important implications. This volume, which includes chapters written by leading workplace aggression scholars, addresses three primary topics: the measurement, predictors and consequences of workplace aggression; the social context of workplace aggression; and the prevention of workplace aggression. Of note, the book encompasses the various labels used by researchers to refer to workplace aggression, such as 'abusive supervision', 'bullying', 'incivility' and 'interpersonal conflict'. This approach differs from those of previous books on the topic in that it does not focus on a particular type of workplace aggression, but covers an intentionally broad conceptualization of workplace aggression - specifically, it considers aggression from both the aggressors' and the targets' perspectives and includes behaviors enacted by several types of perpetrators, including supervisors, coworkers and customers.
