员工潜力测量与挖掘:主动性人格研究现状与新趋势

Employee Potential Measurement and Exploration—Current Situation and New Trend of Active Personality Research

随着主动性人格概念的提出,学术界逐渐将研究重心从关注员工问题转向了关注员工的潜力。有关主动性人格的研究国外起步较早,国内仍处于初级阶段,就其概念和维度,学者们基于不同层面提出了不同的观点,但尚未达成一致。本研究从员工潜力测量与挖掘的角度对国内外相关文献的梳理,结果发现:1) 对于主动性人格的概念界定,研究者从主动性个体表现出的行为结果、能力等角度对其进行了补充,但是理论基础还是很薄弱,未来研究可进一步丰富其理论;2) 对主动性人格的测量目前仍然没有一个统一的工具,以后可致力于研究工具的开发和完善;3) 尽管当前研究表明主动性人格对于员工创新能力、创造力等具有预测作用,这为员工潜力的发掘提供了依据,但是对于员工其他潜力的研究仍然有待探索例如,问题解决能力等。

With the introduction of the concept of initiative personality, the academic community has gradually shifted its focus from focusing on employee issues to focusing on employee potential. Foreign scholars started studying on active personality earlier, and the country is still in its infancy. About its concept and dimension, scholars have put forward different views based on different levels, but have not yet reached an agreement. In this study, relevant literatures at home and abroad were sorted out from the perspective of employee potential measurement and mining. It is found that: 1) For the definition of the concept of active personality, scholars supplement it from the perspective of behavioral results and abilities demonstrated by active individuals, but the theoretical basis is still weak. Future research can further enrich its theory. 2) There is still no unified tool for measuring active personality. Scholars can focus on the development and improvement of research tools. 3) Although current research shows that active personality plays a predictive role in employees’ creativity, etc., which provides a basis for the exploration of employee potential, but research on other potentials of employees remains to be explored, for example, problem-solving capabilities.
