Organizational climate is arguably the most studied representation of social context organizations, having been examined as an antecedent, outcome, or boundary condition in virtually every domain inquiry organizational sciences. Yet there no commonly recognized, domain-independent theory that used to explain why and how climates both form affect behavior. Rather, a set theories (and literatures) housed across variety divergent content domains. As result, researchers who study one are often...

Organizational climate research has surged recently, but the disbursement of contributions across domains made it difficult to draw conclusions about and its connections with performance. To make sense literature, we used competing values framework (CVF) classify domain-specific climates into four types (clan, adhocracy, hierarchy, market climates). We did so by conceptually linking that are manifestations same underlying strategic values. then conducted meta-analyses examine magnitudes,...

Abstract In this constructive replication, we evaluate the effect of star performers on unit performance beyond presence other high and mean levels to clarify confirm stars' unique contribution performance. Furthermore, extend prior work by assessing moderating turnover‐to‐unit relationship. With a sample drawn from Major League Baseball, that stars have positive influence above effects productivity performers, but strength relationship diminishes as number increases. We also find moderate...

A challenge for leadership and health/well-being research applications relying on web-based data collection is false identities-cases where participants are not members of the targeted population. To address this challenge, we investigated effectiveness a new approach consisting using internet protocol (IP) analysis to enhance validity involving constructs relevant in (e.g., leader-member exchange [LMX], physical [health] symptoms, job satisfaction, workplace stressors, task performance)....

Organizational climates are instrumental in guiding patterns of worker behavior across varied domains; yet it is noteworthy that do not exist vacuums. Rather, embedded within broader contexts with which they always congruent or harmonious. Incongruence between a climate and its context can occur when emerges from strategic values divergent meaningful features the group organization's environment. We propose, based on congruence theory, incongruent their context, less able to affect...
