推力还是阻力?工作狂领导对下属创造力的非线性影响研究

摘要/Abstract

摘要： 在“996”工作制背景之下，工作狂领导的有效性正在引起理论与实践界的广泛关注。但以往研究侧重于从绩效角度考察工作狂领导有效性，缺乏对创造力的关注。本研究基于激活理论，尝试探讨工作狂领导对下属创造力的非线性作用效果，并且揭示其内在机制与边界条件。通过对一家能源类国有企业研发中心的252名员工进行多时点、多来源的问卷调查，研究结果表明：工作狂领导对下属创造力存在倒U型影响；时间压力在其中起中介作用；下属核心自我评价调节了时间压力与下属创造力之间的倒U型关系，即下属核心自我评价越低，该曲线关系越明显。

关键词: 工作狂领导, 时间压力, 核心自我评价, 创造力

Abstract: Under the 996 work regime in China, leader workaholism has received extensive attention in both theory and practice. However, current literature typically examines the impact of leader workaholism on performance but ignores its impacts on creativity. Drawing on activation theory, we build a theoretical model to explain whether and under what conditions workaholic leaders may promote or hinder follower creativity. Using the responses of 252 surveyed employees from a research and development center in a state-owned enterprise, our empirical research reaches the following conclusions. Followers are more creative when leader workaholism remains at a moderate level rather than at a very low or very high level. Meanwhile, time pressure mediates the curvilinear impact of leader workaholism on follower creativity. And follower core self-evaluation moderates the curvilinear relationship between time pressure and follower creativity such that this curvilinear relationship is more obvious among followers with low levels of core self-evaluation.

Key words: leader workaholism, time pressure, core self-evaluation, creativity
