The link between responsability and commitment: managerial contributions
Keywords:
Corporate social responsability, affective commitment, employee-organizational identification, managerial contributionsAbstract
The affective commitment of a company’s members is usually influenced by the level of deepening of the socially responsible actions carried out by the corresponding company. The present work brings together the contributions derived from the in-depth analysis of the aforementioned causal link. It does so by focusing on a practical and managerial frame. In this sense, the study is based on a preliminary process of semi-systematic review and qualitative screening, which identifies the conclusions of relevant works in the academic literature regarding the relationship between corporate social responsibility and employees’ identification with their company. The work converges in a set of useful initiatives to comprehensively enrich the role of management, which seek to cultivate such relationship. In this way, the work uses relevant academic conclusions in the particular study field, and makes them available to the managerial practice in companies and organizations.
