The Effects of Perceived Narcissistic Supervision and Workplace Bullying on Employee Silence: The Mediating Role of Psychological Contracts Violation

Business & Economic Review (2021)

Kamran Khan Tahira Nazir Khuram Shafi

This research has emphasized on the effects of perceived narcissistic supervision and workplace bullying on employee’s silence. It also investigates the role of psychological contract violation as a mediating variable among workplace bullying, perceived narcissistic supervision, and employee silence. Data of 395 employees who are working in the Banking and Telecommunication sector has been tested by Using SMART PLS 3.2.2 Software to assess a mediation model. The results of the study support to our hypothesis. The obtained results show the direct positive relation of perceived narcissistic supervision and workplace bullying with employee silence. These further elaborate the significant positive mediation relation of psychological contract violations among all above mentioned variables. Drawing upon the fairness heuristic theory and conservation of resources theory, the current study added in the literature that psychological contract violation and employee silence have been characterized by stressful working conditions .i.e. perceived narcissistic supervision and workplace bullying. Practical implications and recommendations for future studies for researchers are discussed.

Internationalization of Construction Service Corporations: Impact of Size and International Experience

IEEE Access (2020)

Ahsen Maqsoom Hassan Ashraf Arif Imran Muhammad Umer Tahira Nazir

The international services literature lacks research investigating the association between corporate size and corporate international experience with the internationalization. Using an integrated theoretical approach, this paper examines the internationalization of construction service corporations (CSCs) with specific emphasis on four dimensions: motives, firm-specific competitive advantages, home country-specific competitive advantages and locational considerations. A quantitative approach was adopted through a postal questionnaire survey. Out of 126 CSCS, 84 usable responses were analyzed giving 66.7% response rate. A comparative analysis was conducted using Mann-Whitney U test between the corporations having different sizes and international experiences. The findings show that CSCs of varied sizes did not concur over several firm-specific competitive advantages and home country-specific competitive advantages, whereas CSCs of varied international experiences were in disagreement over some locational factors. Small CSCs need to form joint ventures or partnerships in order to overcome their limitations. The government support is direly needed to promote internationalization of CSCs especially the younger and smaller ones which stand more vulnerable due to lack of opportunities in their domestic markets. The study will be helpful to managers and regulatory bodies towards creating a balanced playing field to develop the internationalization process for their service corporations.

Self-Efficacy affects Turnover Intention through Burnout-A Study of Nurses in Pakistan

Barza Iftikhar Mir Tahira Nazir Khuram Shafi

The research study aims to investigate the reason for turnover intention among Pakistani registered nurses with the possible impact of self-efficacy in the presence of burnout as a mediator. This study conceptualizes that self-efficacy may play a significant role to manage burnout and turnover intention by investigating the mediation of burnout between self-efficacy and turnover intention among registered nurses in Pakistan. In a nutshell, employees’ turnover intention is a major behavioral issue in organizations worldwide. There is a need to explore and understand the factors that elevate employees' intention to quit because it affects organizational performance directly and indirectly by improving their performance and reducing their costs by retaining their employees. Data for this study is collected by conducting both paper-based and online surveys using structured questionnaires. The samples for the study are taken from the nurses from all provinces of Pakistan using a systematic random sampling technique. The findings of this study would be beneficial for healthcare professionals to understand the factors that instigate turnover intention among Pakistani nurses. It would be significant for the policymakers of healthcare institutes in devising their policies to reduce the causes of stress and burnout among nurses to control their intentions to quit the job. Moreover, it will help health organizations to know that how the affected nurses from the syndrome of job burnout and having the intention to leave can be managed.

Ontological automation of software essence kernel to assess progress of software project

Mehran University Research Journal of Engineering and Technology (2022)

Farooq Ali Asif Raza Muhammad Munwar Iqbal Tahira Nazir

Managing a software project with a large number of requirements is a challenging task, a lot of effort and time is required to measure the software’s progress and health. To tackle this, software development organizations look for different development processes that would best assist them. Recently, software essence is used to measure the progress and health of software development. However, these are applied manually to assess the development and fitness of the system. Therefore, it is very difficult for software organizations to access the required information quickly. The aim of this study is the automation of Software Essence Kernel through Ontology Development to quickly measure the progress and health of the system. Experimental work is done with a hypothesis that if software essence kernel is automated, then one can quickly measure the progress and health of the system. The results of this study argue that software health of the system can be quickly and easily measured if the ontology is automated.

Organisational cynicism as mediator and self-efficacy as moderator in the relationship between workplace incivility. role stressor. psychological empowerment and turnover intention

Tahira Nazir

Organisational cynicism has been extensively studied under topics such as feelings of employees being disregarded by the organisation, and not being treated with respect and dignity. It has been observed that cynicism is a potential cause of nurses thinking of leaving their organisations. Therefore, shortage of nurses has adversely affected the profession globally. The current study investigated empirically the relationship of workplace incivility, role stressors and psychological empowerment with turnover intention and the mediating effect of organisational cynicism on these relationships. Moreover, this study investigated the moderating effect of self-efficacy on the relationship of role stressors and organisational cynicism. Data was collected from nurses of public and private sector hospitals located at Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Pakistan. 500 questionnaires were distributed to the nurses, of which 395 had participated in the study. The data were analyzed using AMOS and SPSS. Data were found to be normal and fulfilled all the requirements o f structure equation modeling (SEM). A significant positive association of workplace incivility with organisational cynicism and turnover intention was found in the study. Nevertheless, no significant relationship was found between workplace incivility and turnover intention. Role stressors were found to have significant relationship with organisational cynicism and turnover intention. However, psychological empowerment was not significantly related to organisational cynicism but was negatively related to turnover intention. Self-efficacy as a moderator has been proven to have a significant buffering impact on the relationship between role stressors and organisational cynicism. The findings of this study insightfully contribute in terms of theoretical, practical and conceptual implications for future researchers to better understand the antecedents and consequences of organisational cynicism. Moreover, this study provides several discernments and valuable guidelines for academicians, researchers and policy makers. Future recommendations in terms of considering cultural values, environmental and economic conditions relating the cynical attributions of staff nurses were offered with practical implementations. In short, this study provides a workable model for the health care sector of Pakistan on how organisational cynicism and turnover intention among the nurses can be reduced.

Exploring Managerial Perspectives of Using Building Management System through TAM: An Empirical Study of Commercial Sector of Pakistan

Periodica Polytechnica Civil Engineering (2020)

Ahsen Maqsoom Jameel ur Rehman Muhammad Umer Muhammad Jamaluddin Thaheem Majid Jamal Khan

A cursory review of the Building Management System (BMS) which optimizes building performance as a move towards smart cities has been presented in the present study. The extant study is an effort to distinguish and analyze the circumstances as if the underdeveloped economies are less likely to be benefitted by the contemporary trends of BMS as compare to the developed countries. Moreover, the current study identifies the factors which may cause to render the managerial acceptance for using BMS through the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). TAM was used to measure four behaviors (latent factors) namely subjective norms, organization support, compatibility, and technology complexity. The data were statistically evaluated via multiple regression analysis using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Results suggested that organization support and compatibility have a significant influence on managerial intentions to use BMS while subjective norms, technology complexity have no significant influence. The findings of this study may serve as guidelines for improvement in the acceptance process and using building management systems in commercial sectors of developing countries.
