“…However, organizational context plays important role in making the proactive work behavior (Ruepert et al 2016) and 0rganizational subculture was more strongly related to career commitment (Lok and Crawford 1999). The organizational research on Proactive work behavior of individual employees in organization has blossomed (Grant and Ash 2008) though there is dearth of studies where mediation role of organizational culture has been investigated in respect to the proactive work behavior.…”

“…Environmental reasons have been self-reported as the most important motivations to save energy in the workplace, followed by helping the organization's finances, feeling good about the actions taken (warm glow) and helping the organization's image (Leygue et al, 2017). Similarly, it is found that biospheric values (which relate to environmental concern) and environmental self-identity predict personal norms to undertake environmental behaviour at work (Ruepert et al, 2016).…”

Building management systems are designed for energy managers; there are few energy-feedback systems designed to engage staff. A tool, known as e-Genie, was created with the purpose of engaging workplace occupants with energy data and supporting them to take action to reduce energy use. Building on research insights within the field, e-Genie's novel approach encourages users to make plans to meet energy-saving goals, supports discussion and considers social energy behaviours (e.g. discussing energy issues, taking part in campaigns) as well as individual actions. A field-based study of e-Genie indicated that visualizations of energy data were engaging and that the discussion 'Pinboard' was particularly popular. Pre-and post-survey (N = 77) evaluation of users indicated that people were significantly more concerned about energy issues and reported engaging more in social energy behaviour after about two weeks of e-Genie being installed. Concurrently, objective measures of electricity use decreased over the same period, and continued decreasing over subsequent weeks. Indications are that occupant-facing energyfeedback visualizations can be successful in reducing energy use in the workplace; furthermore, supporting social energy behaviour in the workplace is likely to be a useful direction for promoting action.

“…Sustainable behavior often costs effort, and the short-term non-sustainable alternatives are often easier and thus more tempting. As such, sustainable behaviors have been linked to self-control in the literature (e.g., Ruepert et al, 2016;Redondo and Puelles, 2017). Data from all studies was collected in collaboration with students.…”

“Don’t Mind If I Do”: The Role of Behavioral Resistance in Self-Control’s Effects on Behavior

High self-control is known to be related to the performance of behaviors that have longterm benefits, such as healthy eating. Recently, studies have suggested that people with high self-control may perform goal-directed behaviors not by exerting effortful control but rather by employing smart, effortless strategies. The current paper investigates the crucial role of behavioral resistance in the relation between self-control and goaldirected behaviors: we propose that people with high self-control feel less resistance toward goal-directed behaviors compared to people with low self-control, and that this is associated with the increased frequency of performing these behaviors. Three cross-sectional studies were conducted in which participants reported on their level of self-control, behavioral resistance toward behaviors in the sustainability, healthy eating, exercise, and study/work domains, and their behavior in those domains. Findings consistently show that the relation between self-control and various behaviors is indeed partially mediated by behavioral resistance, although the study designs preclude establishing causal relations. It is implied that lower resistance makes it easier for people with higher self-control to perform the goal-directed behaviors, without requiring much effort. This notion yields an interesting, novel perspective on how people with high self-control manage to function so well.
