收之桑榆,失之东隅:向上逢迎对员工职场地位的影响

逢迎是组织中一种常见的印象管理策略.现有研究普遍认为向上逢迎可为员工带来更多利益,较少关注向上逢迎给员工自身带来消极影响.基于社会信息加工理论,本研究通过调查和实验两种不同的研究设计,重复检验员工向上逢迎与职场地位的关系,并考察这一关系的中介机制和边界条件.调查和实验结果均表明,向上逢迎会降低同事对员工正直水平的感知,进而给员工的职场地位带来负面影响,且这一间接效应受到员工胜任力的调节.相较于低胜任力员工,高胜任力员工向上逢迎通过同事对员工的正直感知间接负面影响职场地位的程度较弱.研究结果不仅可从第三方视角完善学术界对员工向上逢迎的认识,亦有助于员工自身规避向上逢迎的潜在危害.
Gain at Sunset but Lose at Sunrise:The Effect of Employees'Upward Ingratiation on Their Status in Workplace
Ingratiation is a common impression management strategy in organizations.Existing studies generally believe that employees can benefit from their upward ingratiation behavior,with little attention paid to the negative impact of upward ingratiation on employees themselves.Based on social information process theory,this study examines the relationship between employees'upward ingratiation and their status in workplace through two different research designs(i.e.,survey and experiment),and examines the mediating mechanism and boundary conditions of the above relationship.Both the survey and the experimental results show that employees'upward ingratiation can reduce colleagues'perception of employees'integrity level,which in turn has a negative impact on employees'status in workplace,and this indirect effect is moderated by employees'competency.Compared with low-competence employees,high-competence employees'upward ingratiation has a weaker negative indirect effect on their status in workplace through colleagues'perception of em-ployees'integrity.The results of the study can not only improve the academic understanding of employees'upward ingratiation from a third-party perspective,but also help employees avoid the potential harm of upward ingratiation to themselves.
