“…Promotion focused individuals view organizational polychronicity as an opportunity to gain resources (Hetland et al, 2018), and thus perceive less time pressure. Hence, they tend to invest more resources in their work (Pap et al, 2022), thus weakening the detrimental effect of time pressure on individual adaptive performance. In contrast, prevention focused individuals view organizational polychronicity as a resource depletion risk (Koopman et al, 2016) and thus perceives more time pressure; the detrimental effect of time pressure is therefore augmented.…”

PurposeThis study aims to examine the effects of organizational polychronicity on individual adaptive performance. Drawing on conservation of resources theory and the perspective of individual differences in pressure perceptions, this study develops a conceptual model to test the mediating role of time pressure and the moderating role of trait regulatory focus in the relationship between organizational polychronicity and individual adaptive performance.Design/methodology/approachA three-wave survey was conducted to investigate a sample of 591 employees who engaged in innovative activities in China. The hypotheses were tested using hierarchical multiple regression and bootstrapping.FindingsThe results show that organizational polychronicity is negatively related to individual adaptive performance via time pressure. Promotion focus weakens the positive relationship between organizational polychronicity and time pressure and the mediating role of time pressure, while prevention focus augments the positive relationship between organizational polychronicity and time pressure and the mediating role of time pressure.Originality/valueThis study reveals the mediating role of time pressure in the relationship between organizational polychronicity and individual adaptive performance, as well as the moderating role of trait regulatory focus in this relationship, thereby deepening our understanding of organizational polychronicity from both a theoretical and a practical perspective.

As a proactive strategy, playful work design allows employees to use ludic or agonistic play to handle hindrances or monotonous tasks. With the help of fun and competition design, they can even transform those tasks into productive work experiences. Drawing on the Job Demands-Resources theory, we analyzed the psychometric properties of the Playful Work Design scale in three studies to adapt and validate the scale for the Romanian population. In the first study, the confirmatory factor analysis results supported the two-factor model. The second study consisted of a longitudinal invariance analysis of the Romanian version of the playful work design scale applied at two different moments and incremental validity analysis beyond other proactive strategies relative to work engagement and performance. The third study found evidence for construct validity (with other constructs that measured playfulness, personal initiative, meaning-making, task complexity, and task monotony) and criterion validity with work-related outcomes (flow at work, engagement, and performance). Altogether, the results demonstrate the validity of the Romanian version of this scale, which can be used in organizations to evaluate playful work design and develop interventions for upgrading employee performance.
