“…These results showed that miners in coal mining enterprises are relatively more likely to perform group-level OCB such as helping coworkers, and less likely to conduct individual-level OCB such as self-learning. This outcome is consistent with research of Rhee et al [83], and in line with the Chinese-specific cultural context in which employees in enterprises of China attach importance to interpersonal relationships.…”

This study theorized and examined the effect of performance appraisal purposes on miners’ organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) via organizational identification. Survey data from 700 miners in state-owned Chinese coal mine enterprises were analyzed using multiple regression and bootstrap sampling. Results indicated that both developmental purpose of the performance appraisal and evaluative purpose of the performance appraisal had positive effects on overall OCB and its four dimensions via organizational identification. Furthermore, developmental purpose of the performance appraisal had a stronger relationship with overall OCB and its four dimensions than evaluative purpose of the performance appraisal. This study provides practical guidance to assist Chinese and even Asian coal mining enterprises in deciding how to motivate miners’ OCB through improving a performance appraisal system and how to strengthen miners’ organizational identification.

“…Distant culture employees prefer collective work engagement (De Clercq et al, 2019) that affects OCB (Shaaban, 2018). There is a reasonable volume of empirical work to suggest that individualism (Siddiqui and Siddiqui, 2019; De Le on and Finklestein, 2011), collectivism (Rhee et al, 2017;Moorman and Blakely, 1995) and academic self-efficacy (Park et al, 2016;Beauregard, 2012) are significant predictors of OCB. Thus, we hypothesized that:…”

Purpose This paper aims to examine the mediating role of relational mobile usage on the relationship between personal values (individualism, collectivism and academic self-efficacy) and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) among the faculty members of higher education/degree-awarding institutes (DAIs) in Pakistan. The paper also examines the moderating role of gender on the relationship between relational mobile usage and OCB. Design/methodology/approach Cross-sectional data from 217 faculty members of higher education/DAIs in Pakistan were collected through an online questionnaire. Structural equation modeling technique using SmartPLS was used to assess the measurement and structural model. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21 was used for data normality analysis, missing value analysis and variable calculation. Response and non-response bias were also examined. Findings The findings confirmed that individualism was not significantly related to relational mobile usage; however, collectivism and academic self-efficacy were significantly related to relational mobile usage. The relationship of relational mobile usage and OCB was also significant. The mediating role of relational mobile usage on the relationship between individualism and OCB was not significant; however, the mediating role of relational mobile usage between collectivism and OCB, and academic self-efficacy and OCB was significant. The moderating role of gender on the relationship between relational mobile usage and OCB was also significant. Practical implications DAIs’ administration should strive to encourage individuals to value group priorities over the individualistic interests. Valuing group interest over the individualistic interest would promote the usage of mobile technology for relational purpose. This relational perspective of mobile usage will ultimately develop OCB among individuals. Also, academic self-efficacy through relational mobile usage can lead to OCB; therefore, another important policy implication for the administration of DAIs is to develop academic self-efficacy among the stakeholders of the institutions. Originality/value Although OCB has become a theoretically mature concept, the framework proposed for this study has rarely been discussed in previous scholarships, particularly from the perspective of relational mobile usage. Arguably, this study is the first in testing the mediating role of relational mobile usage between the personal values and OCB within the context of academia in Pakistan.

“…Following the concept of "family circle", Chinese people work collectively. Within the family circle, members place group interest above self-interest and will pursue group goals (Li & Fu, 2000;Oyserman & Lee, 2008;Rhee et al, 2017). However, through the findings, it is also seen that there have conflicts between different family circles when competition for a limited resource.…”

“…Therefore, in terms of "in-group", it is reflected that there has a phenomenon that "work collectively in the group" but "compete with the outside group as an individual way". Although much study has already differentiated values between individual-oriented and collective-oriented frameworks, a question of to what degree should people pursue their self-interest rather than contributing to the welfare of the larger in-group will be asked by both Western and Chinese managers (Rhee et al, 2017). The answer may be varied depending on how important their philosophy values individualism and collectivism respectively in the social system (Oyserman & Lee, 2008).…”

Introduction. Alignment between the philosophical value of the Western parent company and the structure of the local organization is essential to improve managing effectiveness and worker productivity. The alignment may need adjustment while considering whether a Western model is fitted into the Chinese workgroup. This study examines the philosophical value concerning business management within an organization and then explores which value is applicable to the modern Chinese structure in the context of Taiwan. Purpose and methods. The purpose is the holistic view of the Chinese model, as opposed to the separated approach of the West. It does not attempt to find the best philosophical framework of business management for local Chinese structure in Taiwan, as such a framework probably does not exist. Instead, it explores the specific phenomena considered during the process of emergence of business management framework when comparing philosophical value for both selected cases of Western and Chinese enterprises. The case study and PATOP model were used. Results. As a result, there has no single model that is absolutely appropriate to both business and people in one way or the other. Both Chinese and Western philosophical ways of doing business have merits and weaknesses, as illustrated. The implication of the results is the emerged PATOP model. The model indicates an ideal work environment where the Western approach is applicable to the Chinese structure in Taiwan. Conclusions. It concludes that the philosophical approach in doing business within the Chinese structure is erected in a way of “Middle of the Road” according to the PATOP emerged from the study. However, it should be noted that there will be drift as this emerged PATOP model used in the Chinese structure with western approach, indicating another issue “what an acceptable time for drift would be”?
