description | Based upon the theory of planned behavior, this research intends to examine the direct
impact of employees’ change-related self-efficacy on their commitment to the change
process. Further, employees’ readiness for change is proposed as a mediator between
change-related self-efficacy and commitment to change. Self-administered questionnaire
was used for collecting primary data from 583 officer ranked employees working in
financial institutions, media, and telecom sectors. To test the hypotheses for the effect of
mediation, PROCESS macros are employed. Findings supported the hypothesized
relationships of the study that employees’ change-related self-efficacy directly influence
their commitment to change. Moreover, employees’ readiness to change also mediates
the relationship between their change-related self-efficacy and commitment to change.
These findings affirm the significance of the presence of these factors among employees
during change and provide a foundation for equipping employees with the necessary
belief, attitude and intention for successful implementation of the change process. |
