讲座标题(Title): The Moral Fabric of Meaningful Work: A Study of Workplace Virtuousness and Moral Identity
讲座摘要(Abstract):
Building on theories of positive identity construction at work, this research examines whether and how moral identity influences workplace meaning. We propose that moral identity can enhance employees’ sense of meaning, with this effect varying based on workplace virtuousness. Specifically, when workplace virtuousness is high, moral identity will be directly and positively related to employees’ sense of meaning, due to alignment between the moral demands of their identity and the values upheld in their environment. Conversely, when workplace virtuousness is low, moral identity’s impact on meaning will be indirect, mediated by prosocial behaviors. In such environments, employees with a strong moral identity engage in prosocial actions to fulfill their moral aspirations, thereby fostering a sense of meaning. Findings from a multilevel survey of 386 employees across 52 organizational teams support our hypotheses.
