The Impact of Inclusive Talent Development Model on Turnover Intention of New Generation Employees: The Mediation of Work Passion

Abstract

The high turnover rate of new generation employees is becoming an increasingly important issue for business and academia. Based on self-determination theory and conservation of resource theory, our study explores the impact of the inclusive talent development model on the turnover intention of new generation employees and the mediating role of work passion. Based on the questionnaire of 290 new generation employees’ data from China, after common method biases and reliability and validity tests, we used SPSS, Mplus and bootstrapping for empirical analysis. The result showed that the inclusive talent development model includes the diversified talent team construction, rational tolerance of employee’s opinions and failures, emphasis on employee’s training, emphasis on fairness and win–win and emphasis on employee’s advantages. The work passion has been divided into harmonious passion and obsessive passion. Among them, rational tolerance of employee’s opinions and failures, emphasis on employee’s training and emphasis on fairness and win–win have a significant positive impact on harmonious passion. Emphasis on fairness and win–win and emphasis on employee’s advantages have negative correlation with obsessive passion. The employee’s harmonious passion is significantly negatively correlated with the turnover intention and the obsessive passion is significantly positively correlated with the turnover intention. In addition, the harmonious passion plays a mediating role between rational tolerance of employee’s opinions and failures, emphasis on employee’s training, emphasis on fairness and win–win and employee’s turnover intention, while the obsessive passion plays a mediating role between emphasis on fairness and win–win and emphasis on employee’s advantages and employee’s turnover intention.

Distributed Leadership and New Generation Employees’ Proactive Behavior: Roles of Idiosyncratic Deals and Meaningfulness of Work

“…The empirical research on the influence of distributed leadership on employees’ behavior is very insufficient. It is worth noting that Fang et al (2020) discussed the influence of leadership style on the behavior of the new generation of employees, he focused on the negative behavior (resignation behavior) of new generation employees, not positive behavior (proactive behavior). Our research has found the antecedents of the new generation of employees’ proactive behavior (distributed leadership) from the leadership style, and provided a new perspective for inspiring the new generation of employees’ proactive behavior.…”

The Impact of Network Embeddedness on the Innovation Performance of New Generation of Employees in the Post-COVID-19 Era—The Mediating Role of Psychological Contract

“…This situation leads them to be very interested in innovative elements, knowledge sharing, and a good atmosphere of cooperation ( Hernaus and Vokic, 2014 ). Therefore, new generation of employees has higher psychological expectations for interpersonal relationships, organisational compatibility and comfort, knowledge and skills, and a growth environment ( Fang et al, 2020 ). New generation of employees with a clear career plan and good psychological cognition attach great importance to fulfilling the psychological contract ( Shri, 2011 ).…”

Encouraging Patient Engagement Behaviors from the Perspective of Functional Quality

“…Overall, 942 valid questionnaires were collected, for an overall effective response rate of 44.86%. We used Harman's single-factor test, which has been frequently used in previous research, such as Barbosa et al [40] and Fang et al [41], to verify whether there was common method bias. The test showed that there were several different factors, six of which had eigenvalues greater than 1.…”
