Citations received over time

Incoming citations to the selected publications, grouped by the year of the citing work. This is separate from lifetime citation totals grouped by the cited article’s publication year.

The publication filters above define which articles receive the citations. The citation-year range below only controls this chart and the incoming-citation comparison. Removing publication-year filters includes older articles’ incoming citations too.

Annual history available for 3 / 3 selected publications. Supported display window: 2017–2026; 2026 is incomplete. Within a successfully fetched ten-year window, omitted years mean zero. Missing histories and years beyond a saved observation’s window remain unknown (—); partial coverage can understate totals.

Sustainable Employee Performance in the 4IR: Intra-organizational Social Capital, Job Burnout, and Organizational Reward as Correlates

Foluso Adekanmbi · Wilfred Ukpere

International Journal of Research in Business and Social Science · 2023

Read abstract

The correlational impact of intra-organizational social capital, job burnout, and organizational reward in sustaining employee performance in the 4IR was evaluated in this paper. Four Hundred (400) employees of the following four businesses in the Nigerian states of Oyo and Lagos were given questionnaires on purpose: First City Monument Bank Plc, British American Tobacco Nigeria, Health Emergency Initiative, and Eko Pearl Towers. The current researcher encouraged voluntary participation and ensured that moral standards were upheld. There were found and appropriately concluded 377 surveys in total. The data was cleaned up and analyzed using SPSS version 29 of the statistical package for social sciences. This study demonstrates how organizational rewards and intra-organization social capital significantly impact employee performance. Job burnout negatively impacts it. Additionally, the study discovered that job burnout, organizational reward, and intra-organizational social capital had a significant and combined impact on employee performance.

Establishing idiosyncratic deals (i-deals) as a precursor to work role performance

Nelesh Dhanpat · Lebone Legoabe

International Journal of Research in Business and Social Science · 2022

Read abstract

The study determines the relationship between i-deals and work role performance amongst employees across industries in the South African context. The study follows a quantitative approach, and a cross-sectional design was adopted. A non-probability convenience sampling technique was chosen. An online questionnaire was used. A total of 231 employees from various industries in Johannesburg, South Africa, were included in the sample. Data were collected using pre-established instruments, and SPSS was used to analyse data. Reliability analysis was used to determine the psychometric qualities of the instruments. Pearson correlation and multiple regression analysis were chosen to examine the data against the research objectives. The study’s findings confirmed a relationship between i-deals and work role performance. Task and work responsibility, schedule flexibility and career development predicted work role performance. The findings assist researchers and practitioners in dealing with and understanding how these customised work arrangements affect individual work role performance. Expanding knowledge of i?deals will help employees and employers improve their dynamic and organisational needs more effectively. HR practitioners will also use the concept of i-deals as a strategic tool to retain talented employees. The study adds to the literature on i-deals and their relationship to work role performance in a South African context. There are limited studies in South Africa regarding our knowledge of i-deals. The present study’s results contribute to the literature on i-deals and their relationship with work role performance within a South African context.

Linkage between rewards and workspace morale in a hyperinflationary environment

Samuel Sixpence · Leonard Muzanenhamo · Wilfred Ukpere

International Journal of Research in Business and Social Science · 2022

Read abstract

The study presents a burden on theory and practice for discovering a reward criterion that achieves workspace morale in a hyperinflationary context. It aimed to determine the relationship between the individual components of rewards (extrinsic, intrinsic, and social) and workspace morale and the mediating role of employee engagement in a hyperinflationary context. The study applied a cross-sectional study. It employed a structured questionnaire as a study instrument. The target population for the study comprised 900 employees and managers of Bindura municipality in Zimbabwe. The study employed a sample of 269 employees and managers, and the methodology used was a case study. A total of 269 questionnaires were hand delivered after administering the ethical consent form. A total of 214 questionnaires were returned, and after preliminary review and cleaning, 17 questionnaires were found with missing values leaving 197 analyzable questionnaires thus, achieving a 73.2% response rate. The study used multiple regression analysis. The results reveal a significant direct effect of total reward, intrinsic reward, and social reward on workspace morale. The direct effect of extrinsic reward on workspace morale was statistically insignificant. It also reveals that the effects of total reward on workspace morale are mediated only partially by employee engagement. The study viewed employee engagement as a mediating force between rewards and workspace morale but did not examine the bond longitudinally. The study recommends exploring reward options, specifically supportive supervisory relations, work autonomy, role clarity, skill variety and regular feedback to improve workspace morale in hyperinflation. The results demonstrate the importance of practices that win employee hearts to enhance commitment instead of external motivation in an inflationary environment.
