A high level of employee commitment holds particular value for
organizations owing to its impact on organizational effectiveness
and employee well-being. This Handbook provides an up-to-date
review of theory and research pertaining to employee commitment in
the workplace, outlining its value for both employers and employees
and identifying key factors in its development, maintenance or
decline. Including chapters from leading theorists and researchers
from around the world, this Handbook presents cumulated and
cutting-edge research exploring what commitment is, the different
forms it can take, and how it is distinct from related concepts
such as employee engagement, work motivation, embeddedness, the
psychological contract, and organizational identification.
Examining topics such as high-commitment work systems, work
attitudes and motivation, the Handbook provides integration with
related literatures. Internationally applicable, sections also
discuss the implications of culture differences for commitment and
present the latest developments in research methods and analytic
techniques that can be used to advance our understanding of
commitment. Comprehensive and engaging, the Handbook of Employee
Commitment is essential reading for commitment scholars and
researchers interested in the latest developments in the field as
well as for international scholars who will benefit from its
guidance on how to approach research in unique cultures. It will
also prove of prime interest to managers and management consultants
with its wealth of suggestions to guide evidence-based practice.
