The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors increasing the motivational benefits of goal-setting. In this study, the effects of goal-related situational conditions such as goal sharing and information sharing in the work place were examined. The hypothetical structural model describing the relationships among goal setting, goal sharing, information sharing and work motivation was examined by structural equation model using the data from 2446 employees in a company.Results of the analysis showed the following: Having a specific goal improved one's work motivation. Sharing one's goals with co-workers in the workplace led to higher work motivation. It also had an indirect effect on work motivation through enhancing information sharing in the work place.

The aim of this study is to examine learning by middle management through the experience of new business incubation. We carried out a study consisting of semi-structured interviews of 15 middle managers working in new business departments of private enterprises. We analyzed the qualitative data from the 15 participants on the basis of the Modified Grounded Theory Approach(M-GTA) and constructed a learning process model. As a result of the M-GTA based analysis, it became clear that the learning of middle management through the experience of new business incubation had four phases: I. the responsibility avoidance phase, II. the reality acceptance phase, III. the critical reflection phase, and IV. the perspective transformation phase.

The purpose of this study was to examine the influence on the mental health of female workers in Japanese organizations in terms of two dimensions of gender harassment (i.e., omission and commission) toward women committed by men, as well as by other women. A questionnaire was administered to a sample of 200 Japanese working women. It revealed the following: (a) Female workers who desire to get promoted perceived discomfort in experiencing omission and commission. (b) The frequency of experiencing omission and perceiving discomfort of commission had negative effects on their mental health through OPD. (c) The frequency of experiencing omission had a direct negative impact on their mental health. (d) The perceived discomfort of commission had a direct positive impact on their mental health.

Since the term "socialization" was defined, numerous researchers have studied its content and function in many fields of research: i. e., sociology, social psychology, etc. Socialization is, in this sense, an interdisciplinary topic which contains subnotions that are peculiar to each field of study. In the field of organizational behavior, that is called "organizational socialization." The purpose of this study is to review the theories of organizational socialization critically and reconsider the characteristics of organizational socialization theoretically. The areas covered by this review are: (1) the comprehensive concept of socialization with organizational socialization as a subnotion, (2) a critical review of past research, and (3) the two major perspedives adopted in past research. This research has two major conclusions about (a) the difference in the perspectives of organizational socialization between the career development field and organizational behavior field, and (b) the insufficiency of empirical research approaches that focus on the "stage-model" and individual mechanisms which facilitate attitude change.

The purpose of this study was to review previous studies about workplace learning to give a theoretical basis for the future study.Because workplace learning is an interdisciplinary research topic, prevent and previous works in this field have investigated each issue on the discipline basis, e.g., economics, management studies, psychology, and sociology.The author defines workplace learning by the way they view learning and where they draw the boundaries of the workplace.They view learning as reflection through experiences or participation in communities.Reviewing the related studies, the author found that classified into four types:(1)“workplace experience approach, ”(2)“workplace participation approach, ”(3)“cross-boundary participation approach, ” and (4)“cross-boundary experience approach”. Almost all previous works appeared to belong to the “workplace experience approach”, despite the fact that workplace learning in its own form and limitation of learning chances takes place beyond the boundaries of the workplace. This must be taken into consideration in future studies, which will have to increasingly adopt the“cross-boundary experience approach”. We will fmd new conceptions of adult learning through proceeding with studies of “crossboundary experience approach”.

The present study examined whether turnover experience would affect the nature of the psychological contract between employees and employers. Two reasons exist for this study to look at turnover experience as a determinant of the psychological contract. First, the turnover rate is increasing in Japan, and the need has emerged for the management to work out how to treat newcomers from other organizations. Second, people who can change their employers tend to have some expertise and exhibit considerable bargaining power in their job hunting activities, which may cause differences in the nature of psychological contract between them and those who have continued to stay in the same organizations. The result indicated that some dimensions of psychological contract are differently perceived between the leavers and the stayers. The implications of the study and future directions are discussed.

The purpose of this research is to test the hypotheses suggested by the earlier interview-study (Ogawa, 2003a, b) which delved into the voluntary turnover process of modern Japanese youth. The questionnaire survey was mail-administered with a sample drawn from those who visited the job placement office for 29 younger persons, and the samples were employees who visited the office in their teens or twenties in the past and were regular or contracted full-timers at the time of data collection. The major findings are as follows : (1) Reality shock reduced the reliance of the employees on their bosses, and made their organizational commitment decline, (2) but wasn't much related to job satisfaction, and (3) could be a chance of self-understanding, especially one's aptitude-understanding. Finally, several suggestions for future research are offered.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how Japanese white-collar workers feel and dealwith their own careers in terms of individual career management.Recent years havewitnessed increasing discussion about how one should always be aware of career problemsand be planning and designing one's own career.Under this circumstance, how are those intheir 30's trying to develop their own careers?This paper intends to tackle this question usinga conceptual framework called Mist-Drift Matrix (MDM) developed in the Japanese context.Qualitative data were gathered through intensive interviews of eight Japanese white-collarworkers, who were around 35 years of age.Three cases, which seem to represent the typicalcoping style within the framework, are presented.Results from our analysis of these casesshow that (1) organizational influence is still an important force in in the MDM, (2) individuals show a propensity to stay in a certain domain within the MDM, and (3) there aredifferent styles of coping according to position within MDM.Practical implications are also discussed.

A longitudinal research project was initiated in 1972 to track the process of management progress in the Japanese corporation.Results of a 7-year follow-up indicated that the career progress of male college graduates up to the lowest management positions can be predicted quite well based on information collected during the first three years of tenure. Based on these findings, an alternative view of management progress in Japanese organization was suggested. This new view was based on a process of early tournament mobility of managerial talent, rather than on a process of deferred competition. This latter process is commonly believed to be the basic features of management progress in the Japanese organization. The temporal generality of this early tournament mobility view was tested in a 13-year follow-up. Results generally supported the early differentiation view but suggested needed elaborations and refinements. Implications of this model are discussed.

An inter-organizational community of practice (CoP) consisting of employees of multiple organizations plays important roles in individual and organizational learning. However, past studies have mainly focused on CoPs involving organizations in cooperative relationships, without sufficient focus on those involving competitors. To address this problem, we examined a CoP formed by employees of competing Japanese airlines, referencing to the theory of “coopetition,” a situation where organizations simultaneously compete and cooperate. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 22 informants, supplemented by secondary data and observations of the CoP. The modified grounded theory approach was employed to analyze the data. As a result, we found that the airlines established a cooperative relationship that resulted from the common threat they faced, the similarity in tasks they held, and the structure in which one’s cooperative behavior toward the others tended to improve benefits for their own organization. It was also found that the participants’ cooperative behaviors were facilitated further by the rareness and uncertainty of knowledge needed for their tasks. In addition, potential conflicts were mitigated by the separation of competition and cooperation, and by the close business relationship among them.

This research describes some new facts discovered from an actual case regarding individual creativity, which plays an important role in organizational creativity, a topic that has been undergoing extensive discussion since the 1990s.The research on individual creativity had been conducted through laboratory-based research in the field of social psychology so far, but it did not consider effects of human interaction on the assumptions. Thus, the knowledge about what factors affect individual creativity in team situations has not taken shape yet.This research focuses on the positive correlation between individual creativity and levels of intrinsic motivation which is confirmed by many laboratory-based researches, and inspects what impacts occurred on the relationship within the team situations that described as a case study.It was considered that under the team situations, not only a high level of intrinsic motivation, but also a cognitive framework change led by metacognition has a great role in enhancing creativity of individuals.

The purpose of this paper is to investigates predictors for subjective and objective phenomena of withdrawal behaviors, e.g. absenteeism, turnover intention etc. As the most important predictor, this research takes psychological capital, and as other predictors it takes leadership and stress. The data were collected from Chinese 300 employees of an apparel maker in China. Psychological capital, leadership, and stress affected turnover intention and absenteeism. Stress mediated the relationship between psychological capital and absenteeism. Stress also mediated the relationship between psychological capital and turnover intention. Implications of this study's findings were discussed.

This study focuses on the expertise and experiential learning, especially learning in communities of practice, of flight procedure designers (specialists who design air routes for aircraft). Six experts were interviewed and an analysis using Modified Grounded Theory Approach was conducted. The results indicated that an informal secondary community, formed through activities in a formally established original community, plays an important role in learning for an individual. The secondary community and the original community play complementary roles, exchanging one's inherent information and knowledge with that of the other. Based on these findings, the theoretical and practical significance of such secondary communities was examined. Further consideration was made of environmental factors that would activate a secondary community.
