HIGHLY satisfied employees will
remain proactive at work for
several years, while those who
are unsatisfied quickly lose their
can-do attitude, new research has
revealed.
After following 75 workers over
two years, the study by Warwick
Business School found that proac-
tive employees with high levels of
job satisfaction maintained that
behaviour over a long period of
time.
Conversely, those with low levels
of satisfaction were found to
display proactive behaviour only in
the short term, and despite efforts
to become more satisfied, this did
not last over the two-year period.
This could be down to workers
either succeeding in changing their
work environment and no longer
needing to proactively seek trans-
formation, or failing to change it
and becoming frustrated and less
willing to work, the research sug-
gested.
The study also found that highly
satisfied employees do not nec-
essarily advocate change, after
examining one group of workers
who had high job satisfaction but
did not want to rock-the-boat in
their organisation throughout the
two years.
The findings suggest that change
could be the motivation many em-
ployees need to become more active
in the workplace.
The researchers also looked at
how workers adapted to situations
and found that the easier they
adapted to change, the
more likely they would
remain proactive over
the long term.
Proactivity is important for in-
novation and implementing organi-
sational change, said Dr Karoline
Strauss, one of the studys authors
and part of the organisation & HR
management group at Warwick
Business School.
So it is important to sustain
a proactive workforce and we
have found that job satisfaction is
important, not just as an instiga-
tor of proactivity, but as a force for
maintaining momentum.
A separate study, published in the
Journal of Business and Psychol-
ogy, found that proactivity and
adaptability among the workforce
is essential if effective organisa-
tional change is to be maintained
in the long term.
If employees do not adapt to
change, they are consequently
unlikely to support proactivity,
added Dr Strauss. This research
found a significant positive link
between a workers adaptivity and
proactivity.
Those who fail to adapt to
change seem to be less likely to ini-
tiate change in the future as they
may see change as threatening and
may lose confidence in their own
ability to be proactive.
Irrespective of their past pro-
activity, we found that employees
proactivity may decrease if they
fail to adapt to change and that
may impact on a companys perfor-
mance and profitability.
Lynne Hardman, CEO of change
specialists Working Transitions,
said that employees need to feel in
control of their personal situation
in order to be adaptable and open
to change.
This is strongly linked to how
self aware they are, how confident
they feel that the outcome of any
change will be positive and also
their levels of personal resilience.
Helping people to understand
just what is in their control, the
range of options available to them
and creating clarity about what a
good outcome for them would be,
can often change mindset signifi-
cantly, she said.
