Noviardi Effendi, Muhammad Rasyid Abdillah, Helwen Heri

Abstract


Securing certain bottom-line results is usually considered beneficial to the profitability of the organization. Organizations have an interest in upholding different goals and values which have different effects on different stakeholders. But adopting a bottom-line mentality encourages simple thinking where employees treat every situation as if only one goal is relevant. In terms of the theoretical model, we use socio-cognitive theory (Bandura, 1977, 1986) to propose that the bottom-line mentality of leaders is positively related to the bottom-line mentality of employees. On the basis of conceptual arguments related to bottom-line mentality (Callahan, 2004; Wolfe, 1988), we hypothesized that employee mentality is positively related to social undermining. The results of the mediation analysis moderated by the bottom line mentality of the employees provide general support for the hypothesis in this study.
