The development of well-being model for middle managers in a financial services organisation
Mbokazi, Bongani
There has been significant growth and changes in the financial services industry, in general and in operations departments, in particular, over the recent years, due to fourth industrial revolution, technology, competition, client behaviour, financial products and services, digitisation and advent of artificial intelligence. These changes have impact on employees, particularly, middle managers’ well-being given their role and level in the hierarchy of the organizations. The research project focused on developing a well-being model for middle managers in a financial services organisation by establishing the relationship between middle managers’ dispositional attributes (personality types and emotional competencies) and the positive psychological functioning attribute (Spiritual Well-being).
Three hundred and ninety-one (391) participants as a sample of middle managers from the Operations department of a South African financial services organisation with a staff compliment of 621 of middle managers across the country, were randomly selected to represent biographical factors (race, age, gender, and tenure) of middle managers in the department. One hundred and fifty (150) participants returned all three questionnaires (MBTI, ESCQ and SWBQ) and these could subsequently be used for statistical analysis. Of the 150 participants 40 (26.67%) were male and 110 (73.33%) were female, Africans were most represented at 47% of the sample, followed by Coloured category at 27%. The last two categories were White (15%) and Indian (12%).
The research goal was accomplished using a survey design. The statistical association between the three dimensions (personality types, emotional competence, and spiritual well-being) was investigated using a cross-sectional quantitative technique. Multiple regression analyses indicated that the main construct variables that influence participants’ psychological well-being models appear to be their emotional competencies, moderated by personality types, which predict how the middle managers tend to be spiritually well within an organisation. The analysis also showed how age, race and years of service (tenure) tend not to influence how participants express their emotions. The partial least square structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) indicated a good fit of the data with the correlation-derived measurement model. Tests for mean differences discovered that participants did not differ significantly in terms of their age, race, and years of service (tenure).
The study made a significant contribution to the bulk of knowledge in the field of Industrial and Organisational Psychology. On a theoretical level, the study deepened the understanding of the individual and cognitive, affective, conative and relations management dimensions of the hypothesised psychological well-being model. On an empirical level, the study developed an empirically tested psychological well-being model that informs well-being practices for individual middle managers and organisational levels. On a practical level, dispositional and well-being practices that inform the dimensions of the psychological well-being model were recommended.; Kube nokukhula okuphawulekayo kanye nezinguquko embonini yezinsizakalo zezezimali, jikelele kanye naseminyangweni yokusebenza, ikakhulukazi, eminyakeni yamuva, ngenxa yenguquko yesine yezimboni, ubuchwepheshe, ukuncintisana, ukuziphatha kwamakhasimende, imikhiqizo yezezimali kanye nezinsizakalo, ukufakwa kwedijithali kanye nokufika kokulingiswa kwezinqubo zobuhlakani bomuntu ngezinhlelo zamakhompiyutha. Lezi zinguquko zinomthelela kubasebenzi, ikakhulukazi, inhlalakahle yabaphathi abaphakathi uma kubhekwa indima yabo kanye nezinga ekuphathweni kwezinhlangano. Le phrojekthi yocwaningo igxile ekuthuthukiseni uhlelo oluyisibonelo sokuphila kahle kubaphathi abasezingeni elimaphakathi enkampanini esiza ngohlinzekomali ngokubheka ubudlelwano phakathi kwesimo sengqondo ekuziphatheni kwabaphathi abasezingeni elimaphakathi (izinhlobo zesimo somuntu kanye nokukwazi ukulawula imizwa) kanye nesimo sokusebenza kahle kwengqondo (ukuphila kahle ngokomoya).
Ababambiqhaza abangamakhulu amathathu namashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nanye (391) njengesampula yabaphathi abaphakathi bomnyango wokuSebenza wenhlangano
yezinsizakalo zezezimali eNingizimu Afrika enabasebenzi abangama-621 babaphathi abaphakathi ezweni lonke, bakhethwa ngokungahleliwe ukuze bamele izici zokuphila (uhlanga, ubudala, ubulili kanye nokuhlala) kwabaphathi abaphakathi emnyangweni.
Abahlanganyeli abayikhulu namashumi amahlanu (150) babuyisele lonke uhlu lwemibuzo emithathu (MBTI, ESCQ kanye ne-SWBQ) futhi lokhu kungase kusetshenziselwe ukuhlaziywa kwezibalo. Kwabahlanganyeli abangu-150 abangu-40 (26.67%) ngabesilisa kanti abangu-110 (73.33%) ngabesifazane, abase-Afrika bamelwe kakhulu ku-47% wesampula, kulandele isigaba samaKhaladi ngama-27%. Izigaba ezimbili zokugcina bekungabaMhlophe (15%) kanye namaNdiya (12%).
Umgomo wocwaningo ufezwe kusetshenziswa umklamo wocwaningo. Ukuhlotshaniswa kwezibalo phakathi kobukhulu obuthathu (izinhlobo zobuntu, ikhono lemizwelo, nokuphila kahle ngokomoya) kwaphenywa kusetshenziswa uhlobo lomklamo wocwaningo lwezinombolo, olungasiwo wokuhlola. Ukuhlaziywa okuningi kokubuyiseleka emuva kukhombisa ukuthi izimo ezinqala zokwakha ezinomthelela ohlelweni oluyisibonelo sokuphila kahle kwengqondo yababambiqhaza zibonakala sengathi zingamakhono abo okukwazi ukulawula imizwa alinganiselwa ngokwezinhlobo zesimo somuntu, okubikezela ukuthi abaphathi abasemazingeni amaphakathi bavame kanjani ukuba kahle ngokomoya enkampanini. Ukuhlaziywa kuphinde kukhombise ukuthi iminyaka yobudala, ubuhlanga kanye neminyaka yokusebenza (isikhathi esihlaliwe emsebenzini) akuvamile ukuba nomthelela endleleni ababambiqhaza abaveza ngayo imizwa yabo. Izindlela ezahlukahlukene zokubheka indlela yokuziphatha (PLS-SEM) zikhombisa ukuhambisana kahle kwemininingo nohlelo oluyisibonelo lokulinganisa oluhlola ukuhambisana. Ukuhlolwa komehluko ojwayelekile kuveza ukuthi ababambiqhaza abahluki kakhulu ngokweminyaka yabo yobudala, ngokobuhlanga kanye nangokweminyaka yokusebenza (isikhathi esihlaliwe emsebenzini). Ucwaningo luphonsa okuningi esivivaneni maqondana nolwazi olunzulu emkhakheni wokuPhila Kahle Ngokwengqondo Emsebenzini Nasenkampanini. Ezingeni lenjulalwazi, ucwaningo luqinisa ukuqonda komuntu ngamunye kanye nezigaba zezilinganiso zokukwazi ukuqonda kahle kwengqondo, zokuthintayo, zokuxhumanisayo kanye nezokuphathwa kobudlelwano nohlelo oluyisibonelo sokuphila kahle ngokwengqondo. Ezingeni locwaningo olufakazelwe, lolu cwaningo lwakha uhlelo oluyisibonelo sokuphila kahle ngokwegqondo esifakazelwe nesinomthelela ezindleleni zokuphatheka kahle kubaphathi abasezingeni elimaphakathi ngabanye kanye nasemazingeni enkampani. Ezingeni lokwenza umsebenzi, kunconywa izindlela zesimo sengqondo nokuphatheka kahle okunomthelela ezigabeni zezilinganiso zokuphila kahle ngokwengqondo.; Intasteri ya ditirelo tša ditšhelete le mafapha a ditshepedišo, a itemogetše phetogo e kgolo mengwageng ye e fetilego ka lebaka la tsogelo ya bone ya intaseteri, theknolotši, phadišano, maitshwaro a bareki, ditšweletšwa le ditirelo tša ditšhelete, tšhomišo ya titšithale le bohlale bja maitirelo.
