Social media use has become an indispensable part of knowledge work. Employees posting work-related content on social media are considered credible sources of information and have significant importance for how stakeholders, such as potential customers and future employees, perceive the organization. Therefore, employees’ ability to communicate about their work on social media has become a competitive advantage both for individual employees and for their organizations, especially in the professional service sector. Hence, understanding the role of employees’ ability to use these social media professionally is crucial for understanding the communicative behaviors of contemporary knowledge workers. In this study, we draw on social cognitive theory and focus on the antecedents and consequences of self-efficacy in individuals’ work-related communication on social media. The results show that perceived organizational commitment, clarity of communicative role, social media training, and prior experience with social media serve as antecedents of communication self-efficacy and subsequent work-related communication on social media. Thus, organizations and particularly management, have several aspects directly within the scope of their control that may aid employees in engaging in the professional use of social media. The paper contributes to the literature on employees’ communication behavior and provides important and actionable insights for management and the development of human resources.

与工作相关的社交媒体使用:社交媒体沟通自我效能的中介作用

社交媒体的使用已经成为知识工作不可或缺的一部分。员工在社交媒体上发布与工作相关的内容被认为是可靠的信息来源,对于潜在客户和未来员工等利益相关者如何看待组织具有重要意义。因此,员工在社交媒体上交流其工作的能力已成为员工个人及其组织的竞争优势,尤其是在专业服务领域。因此,了解员工专业使用这些社交媒体的能力对于了解当代知识工作者的交流行为至关重要。在这项研究中,我们借鉴社会认知理论,关注个人在社交媒体上与工作相关的交流中自我效能感的前因和后果。结果表明,感知到的组织承诺、沟通角色的明确性、社交媒体培训以及社交媒体的先前经验是社交媒体上沟通自我效能和随后与工作相关的沟通的先决条件。因此,组织,特别是管理层,在其控制范围内有几个方面可以帮助员工参与社交媒体的专业使用。该论文为有关员工沟通行为的文献做出了贡献,并为管理和人力资源开发提供了重要且可操作的见解。结果表明,感知到的组织承诺、沟通角色的明确性、社交媒体培训以及社交媒体的先前经验是社交媒体上沟通自我效能和随后与工作相关的沟通的先决条件。因此,组织,特别是管理层,在其控制范围内有几个方面可以帮助员工参与社交媒体的专业使用。该论文为有关员工沟通行为的文献做出了贡献,并为管理和人力资源开发提供了重要且可操作的见解。结果表明,感知到的组织承诺、沟通角色的明确性、社交媒体培训以及社交媒体的先前经验是社交媒体上沟通自我效能和随后与工作相关的沟通的先决条件。因此,组织,特别是管理层,在其控制范围内有几个方面可以帮助员工参与社交媒体的专业使用。该论文为有关员工沟通行为的文献做出了贡献,并为管理和人力资源开发提供了重要且可操作的见解。组织,特别是管理层,在其控制范围内有几个方面可以帮助员工参与社交媒体的专业使用。该论文为有关员工沟通行为的文献做出了贡献,并为管理和人力资源开发提供了重要且可操作的见解。组织,特别是管理层,在其控制范围内有几个方面可以帮助员工参与社交媒体的专业使用。该论文为有关员工沟通行为的文献做出了贡献,并为管理和人力资源开发提供了重要且可操作的见解。
