Methods This study is a single-blind, parallel-group randomized controlled trial. A total of 60 participants scheduled for primary unilateral ACLR will be recruited and randomly allocated to either the experimental group (c…
Unpacking Leader Bottom-Line Mentality (BLM) in Organizations
Contingent Leader Identity and Leader Emergence
INTRODUCTION: Traits, including leader identity, represent cross-situational consistency in responses. Cross-situational variability is treated as random error. We explore cross-situational variability in leader identity goals as a function of self-evaluations and construct an individual difference variable, contingent leader identity, which we hypothesis will supplement the effects of trait leader identity in prediction of leader emergence. METH…
Coix seed oil improves the inflammatory response in mice with phlegm-dampness collagen-induced arthritis by inhibiting the differentiation of Th17 cells
These findings provide new mechanistic insights into the immunomodulatory function of CSO in RA, supporting its ethnopharmacological use in dampness-phlegm dominated RA
Coping with the Threat? Investigating How and When Negative Performance Feedback Leads to Supervisor Bottom-line Mentality
Although existing research has explored the outcomes of supervisor bottom-line mentality (SBLM) extensively, its antecedents remain underexplored. Drawing on threat rigidity theory, we investigate how and when negative performance feedback (NPF) leads to SBLM. We conceptualize SBLM as a state-like variable and propose that supervisors feel threatened when receiving NPF from directors, which in turn leads to SBLM. We further propose that competiti…
When Inviting Voice Backfires
Researchers have long sought to identify how leaders' behaviors shape employees' willingness to speak up (employee voice) or withhold their opinions (employee silence). Research often has portrayed leader voice solicitation as a universally positive behavior that promotes employee voice while curtailing silence. Drawing on approach–avoidance systems theory, we challenge this prevailing assumption and propose that the effects of leader voice solic…
Beautifying a stigmatized occupation
How can an occupation’s stigmatized core attributes be ameliorated? To address this issue, we examined the Indian beauty salon occupation, which has long faced core occupational stigma due to physical, moral, caste-based taints, and low occupational prestige. By drawing on published celebrity beautician interviews and conducting semi-structured interviews with salon owners and customers, we found that modifying stigmatized occupational elements a…
Death anxiety among street-level bureaucrats
Drawing on the depletion model of self-regulation, this study investigates how death anxiety depletes the energy of SLBs, resulting in negative consequences for their work drive and public service performance. The study also examines the importance of trait mindfulness as a boundary condition for determining whether the psychological and work-related outcomes of death anxiety are more or less severe for some SLBs. Using time-lagged and supervisor…

Employee Ethical Silence Under Exploitative Leadership
Employees remaining silent about ethical aspects of work or organization-related issues, termed employee ethical silence, perpetuates misconduct in today’s business setting. However, how and why it occurs is not yet well specified in the business ethics literature, which is insufficient to manage corporate misconducts. In this research, we investigate how and when exploitative leadership associates with employee ethical silence. We draw from the …
Financially insecure and less ethical
With the recent COVID-19 pandemic, among other crises (e.g., Russia–Ukraine conflicts and recession projections) threatening organizations’ financial conditions across the globe, supervisors may not only encounter challenges such as job cuts that test their ethical leadership, but also experience financial insecurity themselves. However, our knowledge of why and when supervisors’ ethical leadership behaviors may be affected in such a situation re…
Human resource management in the age of generative artificial intelligence
ChatGPT and its variants that use generative artificial intelligence (AI) models have rapidly become a focal point in academic and media discussions about their potential benefits and drawbacks across various sectors of the economy, democracy, society, and environment. It remains unclear whether these technologies result in job displacement or creation, or if they merely shift human labour by generating new, potentially trivial or practically irr…
Organizations’ Management Configurations Towards Environment and Market Performances
Mastering digital transformation
Drawing upon new institutional theory, we developed and tested a model on how digital transformational leadership and organizational agility influence digital transformation with digital strategy as a moderator. We found that digital transformational leadership and organizational agility positively influence digital transformation, and digital transformational leadership influences organizational agility. The finding of our study also indicates o…
Do moral disengagers experience guilt following workplace misconduct? Consequences for emotional exhaustion and task performance
According to Bandura, moral disengagement facilitates misconduct by minimizing feelings of guilt that normally arise when one contemplates wrongdoing. While trait moral disengagement has been negatively associated with anticipatory guilt, scholars have yet to fully consider its impact on guilt post ‐ misconduct. In this paper, we examine the indirect effects of trait moral disengagement on post‐misconduct guilt, and downstream effects on employee…
Thriving at work but insomniac at home
Bottom-line mentality (BLM) describes a one-dimensional frame of mind revolving around bottom-line pursuits, which pervades most organizations today. But how does working with high BLM supervisors affect employees’ functioning both at work and at home? Guided by this question, we draw on social information processing theory and insights from the person–environment fit literature for a nuanced understanding of the effects of supervisor BLM. Using …
Whatever It Takes
Given that many organizations are competitive and finance centered, organizational leaders may lead with a primary focus on bottom-line attainment, such that they are perceived by their subordinates as having a bottom-line mentality (BLM) that entails pursuing bottom-line outcomes above all else. Yet, the field is limited in understanding why such a leadership approach affects employees’ positive and negative contributions in the workplace. Drawi…
Stronger together
In this research, we integrate social impact theory (SIT) and social cognitive theory (SCT) to examine how group ethical voice, as a form of social influence, reduces group abusive supervision. Drawing on SIT, we hypothesize that the strength of this relationship is contingent on the group's power, size, and social distance from the group leader (i.e., interaction frequency). Results from data collected over two time periods from 521 employees in…
Employee thriving at work
Thriving at work has been linked to a wide range of positive individual and organizational outcomes. However, research to date has primarily focused on its individual and work‐related antecedents, overlooking family‐related issues that constitute an essential part of social interactions. To advance our understanding of socio‐relational sources of employee thriving at work, we investigate the differential effects of family incivility and family su…
‘The canary in the coal mine’
Being ignored by loved ones
This paper extends the understandings of the contextual antecedents of employee creativity at work by examining what can happen when employees are ostracized by loved ones at home, a phenomenon referred to as family ostracism . Drawing on insights from the conservation of resources (COR) theory, we examine the moderated multiple mediation relationships between family ostracism and an individual's creativity at work through strain‐based family‐to‐…

Business Leadership Development in China
This book argues that China’s businesses, and hence China’s future economic development, face a huge crisis in that there is a considerable "leadership gap" in China, with a shortage of competent business leaders, at a time when new leadership skills are required urgently, as China’s businesses evolve rapidly and engage ever more with the global economy. Moreover, the book argues, training is an undervalued and often marginalised activity in Chin…
