CMMU Faculty Receive Research Excellence Award from the UK.
A research report entitled “Perceived vision-based leadership effects on staff satisfaction and commitment at a Thai energy provider” by Associate Professor Dr. Sooksan Kantabutra and Assistant Professor Dr. Parisa Rungruang has been chosen as a Highly Commended Paper Award Winner at the Emerald Literati Network Awards for Excellence 2013. This is also the third consecutive year Associate Professor Dr. Sooksan Kantabutra’s research has been chosen to receive this award since 2011.
This report examines relationships between vision realization factors, employee satisfaction, and affective organizational commitment in a state-owned energy provider in Thailand. Findings indicate that vision communication, motivation and empowerment of employees, and follower affective organizational commitment are three direct predictors of enhanced employee satisfaction. Empowerment of employees and employee satisfaction are two direct predictors of employee affective organizational commitment. These findings indicate a reciprocal relationship between employee satisfaction and affective organizational commitment, with a stronger effect from employee satisfaction on affective organizational commitment than the reverse.
Every year Emerald invites each journal’s Editorial Team to nominate what they believe has been that title’s Outstanding Paper and up to three Highly Commended Papers from the previous 12 months.
