Abstract

The objective of this research is to examine the influence of organization-based self-esteem on the relationship between proactive personality and job crafting, considering the predictive and creative aspects of personality. A quantitative research approach was employed, collecting data from 1067 participants in two separate time periods through a survey. The findings, gathered at different time points, indicate that a proactive personality significantly and positively affects job crafting. Moreover, organization-based self-esteem emerges as both a partial mediator and a moderator in this relationship. The study highlights the significance of proactive thinking and having a sense of self-esteem within the organizational context for employees to engage in job crafting. Practical and academic recommendations are provided based on these results.

Özet

Bu araştırmanın amacı, kişiliğin öngörücü ve yaratıcı yönlerini dikkate alarak, örgüt temelli benlik saygısının proaktif kişilik ile iş kurma arasındaki ilişki üzerindeki etkisini incelemektir. Nicel bir araştırma yaklaşımı kullanılmış ve iki ayrı zaman diliminde 1067 katılımcıdan anket yoluyla veri toplanmıştır. Farklı zaman noktalarında elde edilen bulgular, proaktif kişiliğin iş kurmayı önemli ölçüde ve olumlu yönde etkilediğini göstermektedir. Ayrıca, örgüt temelli benlik saygısı bu ilişkide hem kısmi bir aracı hem de bir moderatör olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Çalışma, proaktif düşünmenin ve örgütsel bağlamda özsaygı duygusuna sahip olmanın çalışanların iş kurmaya katılmaları için önemini vurgulamaktadır. Bu sonuçlara dayanarak pratik ve akademik öneriler sunulmaktadır.
