讲座摘要:   

Research on social networking primarily focuses on the long-term beneficial consequences of upward networking; that is, the pursuit of social ties with leaders in support of task and professional goals. However, how upward networking influences actors in the short term is largely overlooked. Indeed, upward networking may have different, possibly even negative, effects when considering shorter time frames. Drawing upon conservation of resources theory, we focus particularly on upward networking and develop a dual-pathway model that simultaneously examines both the immediate benefits and the costs of upward networking for employees on a daily basis. In Study 1, we developed and validated a reliable scale of upward networking using nine separate samples, to address the limitation of the absence of a well-accepted measurement. In Study 2, utilizing a time-lagged experience sampling methodology across 84 employees who completed twice-daily surveys for 10 consecutive workdays, we examined the effects of daily upward networking on work engagement through the resource gain of perceived impact at work and the resource loss of ego depletion. We found that the individual trait of self-control moderated the relationships between daily upward networking and both resource gain and resource loss. Specifically, employees high in self-control experienced a greater perceived impact at work after engaging in upward networking, while those low in self-control experienced greater ego depletion. Overall, our findings highlight the complexities of upward networking, which both empowers and burdens employees in terms of immediate work outcomes.
