Abstract

Chinese state-owned enterprises (soes) encounter some issues in newcomer management such as newcomers’ high turnover rate during the first few months of their socialization and supervisors’ unwillingness to share information with newcomers. This study aims to investigate the relationships between voice behaviors, supervisors’ perceptions (agency and communion of newcomers), supervisors’ information sharing (task and social), and socialization outcomes among newcomers in chinese state-owned enterprises. Besides, this study aims to investigate the moderating role of political skill between voice behaviors and supervisors’ perceptions (agency and communion of newcomers). The research is grounded in the dual perspective model of agency and communion (dpm-ac) theory and emotion regulation theory. The study examines voice behaviors, supervisors’ perceptions (agency and communion), and supervisors’ information sharing as the predictors of organizational socialization outcomes, with political skill as the moderating variable. A total of 986 newcomers and 974 their direct supervisors from 15 chinese state-owned enterprises participated in this survey. Smart partial least squares (pls) software was used to analyze the collected data. The results suggested that all voice behaviors (constructive, supportive, destructive and defensive) are significantly associated with socialization outcomes.
