ABSTRACT

This study analyses a model that links three predictors namely workplace spirituality, self-

efficacy, and person-organization fit to employee engagement through the mediating role of

exchange ideology. Drawing on social exchange theory, researchers expected that exchange

ideology would mediate the relationship between the given antecedents and employee

engagement. This study used quantitative method to collect data and WarpPLS5.0 to analyze

the data. The results of a survey conducted among 100 employees of credit unions in West

Kalimantan, Indonesia, indicated that employees with stronger spirituality, self-efficacy, and

values compatibility engaged better at work. Researchers also found that exchange ideology

did not mediate the relationship between workplace spirituality and employee engagement

although the exchange ideology mediated the relationship between two predictors namely

self-efficacy and person-organization fit to employee engagement.

Keywords: Workplace spirituality; self-efficacy; person-organization fit; exchange ideology;

Kajian ini mengkaji model yang menghubungkan tiga faktor penentu, iaitu kerohanian

tempat kerja, keberkesanan kendiri, dan kesesuaian individu-organisasi untuk keterlibatan

pekerja menerusi peranan perantaraan ideologi pertukaran. Menurut teori pertukaran sosial,

peyelidik menjangkakan ideologi pertukaran menjadi pengantara dalam hubungan antara

antesedan yang diberi dan keterlibatan pekerja. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah kuantitatif

untuk mengutip data dan perisian WarpPLS5.0 digunakan untuk menganalisis data. Hasil

kaji selidik yang dilakukan ke atas 100 orang pekerja syarikat kredit di Kalimantan Barat,

Indonesia, menunjukkan bahawa pekerja yang mempunyai kerohanian yang lebih kuat,

keberkesanan kendiri, dan keserasian nilai akan bekerja dengan lebih baik di tempat kerja.

Para penyelidik juga menemukan bahawa ideologi pertukaran tidak memainkan peranan

pengantara bagi hubungan antara kerohanian tempat kerja dengan keterlibatan pekerja

meskipun ideologi pertukaran menjadi pengantara hubungan antara dua faktor penentu,

iaitu keberkesanan kendiri dan kesesuaian nilai individu dengan nilai organisasi untuk

keterlibatan pekerja.

INTRODUCTION

One of the fundamental elements of the survival of an organization is a sustained competitive

advantage generated by the valuable, rare, inimitable, and non-substitutable resources

(Barney 1991; Ichrakie 2013). The Harvard Business Review (2015) reported that 71% of

respondents ranked employee engagement as very important to achieve organizational

success. Engaged employees look for a better way to finish their work, spend less time for

routine activities, and use resources efficiently. The employee engagement influences

effectiveness and innovation (Welch 2011), performance (Macey & Schneider 2008), and the

sustained competitive advantage (Albrecht et al. 2015; Nair & Salleh 2015). Ratanjee and

Emond (2013) stated that the engagement factor plays a vital role, for it motivates business

activity, competitive advantage, and sustainable organization. Since the introduction of Kahn

(1990), this concept has been drawing the attention of researchers, either in business,

management, industrial psychology/organization, or human resources (Albrecht et al. 2015;

Crawford, LePine & Rich 2010; Gruman & Saks 2011; Welch 2011; Wollard & Shuck 2011).

Kahn (1990) defined employee engagement as an involvement of an employee in his role

where he works and expresses himself physically, cognitively, and emotionally. The

involvement motivates loyalty within the employee so that he or she can reduce the intention

to quit (Macey & Schneider 2008). The engaged employee, who is concerned with the

success of an organization, will make a contribution that is more than what a job requires

(Mercer, Carpenter & Wyman 2007).

In adverse circumstances, workforce is becoming disengaged at fast rates. The global

level of employee engagement is in crisis “with serious and potentially lasting repercussions

for the global economy” (Mann & Harter 2016). Based on the data of 230,000 full-time and

part-time employees in 142 countries, 24 percent were actively disengaged, 63 percent were

not engaged, and only 13 percent of employees were highly engaged in their jobs (Gallup

2016). The findings indicate that at the global level, the workplace could be described more

as a source of frustration than as a place of self-realization. The grim picture of employee

engagement reminds us of the importance of a research. To improve employee engagement, a

critical and holistic research needs to be done. It is a substantial matter that today’s

organization tries to review the key driver of employee engagement (James, McKechnie &

Swanberg 2011). Responding to the lack of employee engagement, the focus of this research

is to develop an empiric model in the process of improving employee engagement.

This study contributes to the on-going discussion about the antecedents of employee

engagement through examination of exchange ideology as a mediator. This study may be

among the first research to examine exchange ideology as a mediator for the effect of

workplace spirituality, self-efficacy, and person-organization fit on the employee

engagement.

LITERATURE REVIEW

The concept of workplace spirituality urges employees to discover and apply spiritual values

(Mehta & Joshi 2010). An organization that assists employees to find the inner meaning of

their work will reach a peak of creativity, learning process, and passion in their mind

(Fawcett et al. 2008). A spiritually-minded organization helps its employees to develop and

realize the fulfilment of their great potential (Robbins & Judge 2013). Saks (2011)

emphasized the importance of including the variable of workplace spirituality as a predictor

of employee engagement and its comparison with other predictors. The concept of workplace

spirituality will enrich the model of employee engagement. In line with Saks (2011), Roof

(2015) stated that a deeper understanding of the relationship between workplace spirituality

and employee engagement indicates that workplace spirituality plays key role as a potential

component to respond to the global decrease of engagement at the workplace. Kolodinsky,

Giacalone, and Jurkiewicz (2008) found that workplace spirituality was positively related to

job involvement, a variable that has some similarity to engagement. Previously, Mirvis

(1997) found that to engage employees with their work, organizations needed to pay attention

to the employees’ spiritual life and their collective potential. Based on the above background,

this research would relate workplace spirituality to employee engagement with the following

hypothesis:

H1 Workplace spirituality is positively related to employee engagement

Self-efficacy refers to individual beliefs in doing their work (Bandura 2012). The higher

the self-efficacy of a person, the higher the belief in his ability to achieve success. In difficult

situations, people with low self-efficacy will easily give up. Conversely, people with high

self-efficacy will try hard to overcome the obstacles he faces (Stajkovic & Luthans 1998).

The involvement of self-efficacy in this model of research is based on the following research

gap. Saks (2006) proposed that the upcoming researchers needed to take into consideration

the predictor of employee engagement that are different from variables of individual

differentiation, such as self-esteem, locus of control, and self-efficacy. Luthans and Peterson

(2002) stated that self-efficacy had a significant effect on employee engagement. It is a better

predictor of task performance than various traditional workplace attitudes (e.g. satisfaction

and organizational commitment), personality traits, level of education, training, goal setting,

and feedback interventions. Xanthopoulou et al. (2008) found that self-efficacy is a predictor

of performance through employee engagement. Self-efficacy influences learning capacity,

motivation, and individual performance since an individual will try to learn and only do

things that he or she is convinced that he or she is able to perform (Lunenburg 2011).

Albrecht and Marty (2017) also found that self-efficacy has significant positive associations

with work engagement. Building on this literature and following Saks (2006), researchers

suggest that self-efficacy is positively related to employee engagement. Therefore, the

hypothesis is:

H2 Self-efficacy is positively related to employee engagement

Person-organization fit refers to the compatibility between the value of the employee and

the value of the organization (Yaniv & Farkas 2005). The conceptualization of person-

organization fit is based on the Schneider's Attraction-Selection-Attrition framework.

According to this framework, individuals are not randomly choosing a situation, but are

deliberately looking for an interesting situation. After selecting the situation, they will be part

of the situation and live within it. In the context of person-organization fit, an organization is

a situation in which people feel attracted, chooses to be part of it, and resides in it when there

is a match, and comes out of it when there is no match (Schneider 1987). At the end of their

analysis, Macey and Schneider (2008) stated that engagement could be a consequence of the

conditions of a work environment and dispositional characteristics at a workplace, and the

interaction of these two elements. Accommodating the contingent perspective (situational

context), they proposed the concept of person-environment (organization) fit which means a

compatibility between value internalized by the employees and the value of the organization.

Research of Lovelace and Rosen (1996) proved that the person-organization fit was the

predictor of work satisfaction, stress reduction, and intention to quit. According to Lv and Xu

(2018), the interaction of a high-performance work system and psychological contract on

employee engagement was mediated by the person-organization fit. Hence, researchers

expected that person-organization fit would be positively related to employee engagement.

H3 Person-organization fit is positively related to employee engagement

Based on Saks’s suggestion (2006) about the role of exchange ideology between

engagement and its antecedent, this research proposes an exchange ideology as a mediating

variable. The concept of this ideology, which was promoted for the first time by Eisenberger

et al. (1986), consists of a convincing idea of reciprocity between employees and an

organization. Normally, what the employees do depends on the attitude of an organization.

In the context of working, Eisenberger et al. (1986) described exchange ideology as a

continuum. On one side of the continuum, an individual’s work performance is equal to the

reinforcement by the organization. If the employees are well treated, they will work hard,

otherwise, they will not work hard. On the other side of the continuum, an individual will

work hard without concerning about what they receive from the organization. Even so, they

will work hard although they are not well treated. This means that exchange ideology reflects

on an individual’s expectation of the individual and organization exchange.

Although no specific study has yet surveyed exchange ideology as a mediator between

employee engagement and the predictors, some studies have been made to observe the topic

of social exchange in the organization (Shore et al. 2006). Bal, Kooij and De Jong (2013)

have examined the mediating role of the psychological contract that related the

developmental HRM to employee outcomes. The psychological contract, which consists of

transactional and relational contracts, has a similar meaning to the two-continuum exchange

ideology. Yeh (2012) found that relational psychological contracts (similar to a lower

continuum of exchange ideology) had a positive influence on engagement. On the other side,

the transactional psychological contracts (similar to a higher continuum of exchange

ideology) had a negative influence on employee engagement. Analogically, researchers

expected the exchange ideology would have an indirect effect that would mediate the

relationship between employee engagement and the antecedents.

An employee who recognizes his spiritual identity will consider his work as a vocation.

He will fulfill his role and duties without being too concerned with how the organization

treats him. Besides, meaningful work is a key feature of a productive work environment

(Hackman & Oldham 1980). Experience in the meaning of work can create the excitement

that connects employees better with positive perceptions (Giacalone & Jurkiewicz 2003).

Employees also need to feel that they are part of a community in the workplace. According to

Duchon and Plowman (2005), the workplace should be seen as a place to share life. When

employees feel themselves as part of the community, they will identify themselves with the

goals of the organization and strive to achieve them. If all three dimensions of workplace

spirituality are experienced by employees, it is expected to create a low exchange ideology.

Employees will work hard no matter what they get in exchange. Concerning the above

description, researchers expected that workplace spirituality would enhance employee

engagement through exchange ideology. Researchers proposed the following hypotheses:

H4 Exchange ideology mediates the relationship between workplace spirituality and

employee engagement: workplace spirituality negatively relates to exchange ideology

(4a) and exchange ideology negatively relates to employee engagement (4b).

Employees with high self-efficacy will be more optimistic and intensive to involve

themselves in the organization. They can even ignore negative feedback. On the other side,

employees who have low self-efficacy tend to reduce the effort when it gets negative

5

feedback (Bandura & Cervone 1986). Here, it is clear that self-efficacy can shape the

expected exchange ideology. In other words, employees will still perform even if they do not

get recognition from the organization. Hence, researchers hoped that self-efficacy would

enhance employee engagement through exchange ideology.

H5 Exchange ideology mediates the relationship between self-efficacy and employee

engagement: self-efficacy negatively relates to exchange ideology (5a) and exchange

ideology negatively relates to employee engagement (5b).

Researchers and practitioners agree that value compatibility between employees and

organizations is the key in managing flexible and committed workforce needed in a

competitive business environment (Bowen, Ledford & Natan 1991; Kristof 1996; Sekiguchi

2004). Various empirical research findings showed that a high level of fit between the value

of employees and the organization would be followed by a variety of positive behaviors.

These variables correlated with attitudes expected in work, such as job satisfaction and

commitment (Chatman 1989; Judge 1994; Vancouver & Schmitt 1991), labor turnover

intention (Chatman 1989; O'Reilly, Chatman & Caldwell 1991; Ambrose, Arnaud &

Schminke 2008), and prosocial behaviors, such as organizational citizenship behavior

(O'Reilly & Chatman 1986) and contextual performance (Goodman & Svyantek 1999;

Sekiguchi 2004). We expect that employees who feel satisfied by value compatibility would

reciprocate lower exchange ideology resulted positive behavior. For these reasons,

researchers hypothesized the following hypothesis:

H6 Exchange ideology mediates the relationship between person-organization fit and

employee engagement: person-organization fit negatively relates to exchange ideology

(6a) and exchange ideology negatively relates to employee engagement (6b).

METHODOLOGY

SAMPLE AND DATA COLLECTION

Researchers conducted this research by distributing questionnaires to 100 employees of eight

credit unions using a multistage sampling. In West Kalimantan, there were 31 credit unions

incorporated in the Center for Legal Credit Cooperatives. Each credit union had dozens of

branches spread across the city, coastal and inland areas of West Kalimantan. All employees

in the 31 credit unions are the study’s sampling frame. From the population, the target

population was selected based on three criteria; 1) the credit unions have been in operation

for more than 20 years; 2) total assets of IDR 200 billion and above, and 3) have 50

employees or more. Based on these criteria, only 8 credit unions were selected. From this,

researchers selected the respondents proportionately to the total amount of employees which

is 100 respondents. This is in line with Ghozali’s recommendation (2008) which stated that

for Partial Least Squares analysis, the research sample ranged from 30-100 respondents. The

fundamental reason for choosing credit unions as the context of the survey was that credit

unions played a key role in developing the socio-economic life of the people in West

Kalimantan. The appreciation of human dignity from this economic organization was

expressed by a systematic program to increase the social prosperity of the people by fighting

against poverty. Credit unions also educate and train their members to have financial literacy

and understand how to manage their money professionally.

MEASUREMENT

Workplace spirituality was measured based on a scale developed by Ashmos and Duchon

(2000). This scale was empirically developed and validated. Researchers measured the self-

efficacy using a five-item scale adopted from Schwarzer and Jerusalem (1995). The person-

organization fit was measured using a four-item scale developed by Netemeyer et al. (1997).

To measure exchange ideology, researchers adopted a scale developed by Eisenberger et al.

(1986). The employee engagement was measured using a scale adopted from Rich, Lepine

and Crawford (2010). All items were measured using five-point Likert scale with 1 for

strongly disagree to 5 for strongly agree.

ANALYSIS

We examined the hypotheses by conducting partial least squares (PLS) path modelling in

WarpPLS5.0 using the two-step process advocated by Henseler, Ringle and Sinkovics (2009).

The two-step process encompasses the outer model assessment and the inner model

assessment. In the first step, the assessment focused on the measurement models. An

evaluation of PLS estimates showed the measurement validity and reliability according to the

criteria that were associated with the reflective and formative outer model. A measurement

model was examined for the five constructs in this study. In the second step, researchers

assessed the inner model or structural model. Reliable and valid outer model assessments in

the first step were the initiation of the inner path model estimation. In line with

recommendation of Henseler et al. (2009), researchers assessed a series of indices,

encompassing R2 (the coefficient of determination), the individual path coefficients, the

values of effect size (f2) that could be considered as the partial effect of the path model, and

assessment of the predictive relevance (Q2).

RESULTS

MEASUREMENT MODEL ASSESSMENT

An assessment of the outer model focused on the effort to examine the validity and

reliabilities of indicators of the latent construct of this research. The criteria used to examine

the reflective construct were indicators of reliability, internal consistency, convergent

validity, and discriminant validity. From the PLS output (Table 1), the loading factor of all

indicators fulfil the reliability condition, except for item 9 with a loading of 0.668 and item

14 with a loading of 0.573. Based on the rule of thumb, those two items had to be eliminated.

The re-examination produces output as presented in the following Table 2. It shows that

the value of the composite reliability of the three reflective constructs is very good (self-

efficacy 0.902, person-organization fit 0.885, and exchange ideology 0.880), that is, >0.70

and it fulfills the criteria of internal consistency reliability.

Assessing the convergent validity and discriminant validity, Table 3 shows the value of

AVE which is given in the diagonals. The value of the AVE is also very good (engagement

self-efficacy 0.648, person-organization fit 0.659, and exchange ideology 0.710), that is more

than 0.50 and therefore fulfilled the requirement of convergent validity. Table 3 summarizes

the result of analysis to show discriminant validity. It indicates that the value of the square

root of the AVE of each latent variable is larger than the square of the correlations. Fornell-

Larcker criteria for discriminant validity postulates that a latent variable should share larger

variance with its indicator instead of other latent variables. The square root of the AVE for

self-efficacy is 0.805, the person-organization fit is 0.812 and exchange ideology is 0.843;

this is higher than the value above and below them. This condition shows that the

discriminant validity of the three predictors fulfill the requirements.

Compared to the reflective construct, the evaluation of formative construct is performed

by assessing the reliability and collinearity of the indicators. The parameter of indicator

reliability is the significant weight achieved by the resampling process. Meanwhile, the

parameter for collinearity is the value of the variance inflation factor (VIF). The referential

value for collinearity is VIF <5 or ideally according to some literature, VIF <2.5 – 3.3. To

evaluate the formative construct in this research, the following Table 4 shows the result of the

formative construct analysis of this survey, that is, workplace spirituality and employee

engagement based on loading indicator compared to other relevant criteria. From the table, it

can be seen that all indicators of the formative construct of workplace spirituality and

employee engagement have a significant weight value where ρ-value <0.001. So, all

formative indicators of this research have fulfilled the reliability’s requirements. The VIF

value of the two constructs also shows that the score <2.5. This indicates that there are no

problems of multicollinearity.

STRUCTURAL MODEL ASSESSMENT

The output diagram as shown in Figure 1 shows us that the variance of exchange ideology is

influenced by variance value of workplace spirituality, engagement self-efficacy, and person-

organization fit which is 24.8%. This is indicated by the value of R2 that is 0.248. The result

of the estimation explains that the contribution of the three exogenous constructs

simultaneously is categorized as small. Besides, the variances of the latent endogenous

construct of employee engagement are influenced and can be explained by the variances of

workplace spirituality, self-efficacy, person-organization fit, and exchange ideology which

reach 50.6%. This is indicated by the value of R2 of 0.506. The value of such influence is

classified into a strong and substantial category. The result describes that the contribution of

the four predictors of employee engagement simultaneously is categorized as large or

substantial (≥0.45).

Figure 1 indicates that workplace spirituality, on one hand, was significantly related to

employee engagement (β= 0.279, ρ= 0.002, f2= 0.157), which supported Hypothesis 1.

However, on the other hand, workplace spirituality is not significantly related to exchange

ideology (ρ= 0.201, NS), failing to support Hypothesis 4a. This signifies that exchange

ideology could not be a mediator for the relationship between workplace spirituality and

employee engagement. This analysis discovered both a positive relationship between self-

efficacy and employee engagement (β= 0.225, ρ= 0.009, f2= 0.128), and a negative

association between self-efficacy and exchange ideology (β= -0.175, ρ= 0.034, f2= 0.072),

which supported Hypotheses 2 and 5a. This research also found a positive significant

relationship between person-organization fit and employee engagement (β= 0.246, ρ= 0.005,

f2= 0.144), and a negative association between person-organization fit and exchange ideology

(β= -0.317, ρ<0.001, f2= 0.147), which gave support for Hypotheses 3 and 6a. Moreover, the

exchange ideology is negatively related to employee engagement (β= -0.163, ρ= 0.046, f2=

0.077), which confirmed Hypothesis 4b, 5b, and 6b. According to Zhao, Lynch, and Chen

(2010), the requirement to establish mediation was a significant indirect effect. The following

In assessing the effect of a particular independent variable on a dependent variable,

Figure 1 demonstrates the score of the effect size (f2) for each predictor. It indicates the

contribution of each predictor for the criterion variables’ coefficient (R2) in the model. R2 of

exchange ideology (0.248) derives from the contribution of workplace spirituality (0.029),

self-efficacy (0.072), and person-organization fit (0.147). The result of R2 (0.506) of

employee engagement is an accumulation of the contribution of workplace spirituality

(0.157), engagement self-efficacy (0.128), person-organization fit (0.144), and exchange

ideology (0.077). The predictive relevance of this research model can be traced from the Q-

square (Q2) on each dependent variable. The model has predictive relevance if Q2 > 0. The

output estimated by PLS shows that the exchange ideology (Q2= 0.247) and employee

engagement (Q2= 0.505) have predictive relevance.

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION

The results of this research showed that the three predictors were significantly related to

employee engagement. Two out of three predictors of the model, such as self-efficacy and

person-organization fit, influenced the employee engagement through exchange ideology as a

mediator. The weak connection between the spiritual dimension and employees’ perception

of what they should give to and what they should get from the organization might cause the

insignificant influence on the two constructs. The values of spirituality were still perceived as

a very personal one. Meanwhile, exchange ideology was linked strictly to the rights and

duties, a formal regulation of contribution and compensation, and the hierarchy of needs of

the employees. The gap of spiritual dimension and employees’ rights and duties caused the

above condition, although the employees hold the values of spirituality respectively, and at

the same time they hold the exchange ideology up to a certain level. These findings were not

in line with most of the workplace spirituality researches that discovered the various positive

impacts of spirituality on the organizational behavior (Burack 1999; Fawcett et al. 2008;

Freshman 1999; Korac-Kakabadse 2002; Leigh 1997; Metha & Joshi 2010; Pawar 2008;

Robbins & Judge 2013; Wagner-Marsh & Conely 1999).

Self-efficacy related significantly to exchange ideology. The employees needed to have

self-efficacy in their abilities to engage in their work and organization. Based on the previous

researches on self-efficacy, this result was in line with most of the researches on the outcome

of self-efficacy of all disciplines. According to the findings of a number of researchers

(Bandura 1989; Bandura & Cervone 1983; Lunenburg 2011; Luthans & Peterson 2002;

Mensah & Lebbaeus 2013; Propst & Koestler 1998; Xanthopoulou et al. 2008), self-efficacy

was a strong predictor of the various positive organizational behaviors.

Person-organization fit also related significantly to exchange ideology. If an employee’s

compatibility of values with the organizational culture was high, the exchange-ideology of an

employee’s behavior would be low. The implication of this finding is that in the process of

recruitment and selection, the organization should consider the behavior and values of the

candidates which are in accordance with the organizational culture. This finding was in line

with the previous researches done by researchers and practitioners who were in consensus

that the values compatibility between employees and organization was an important key to

develop the flexible and committed workforce needed by the competitive business

environment (Bowen et al. 1991; Kristof 1996; Sekiguchi 2004).

Workplace spirituality related significantly to employee engagement. If the implication

of the spirituality’s values at the workplace was higher and stronger, the employee

engagement would increase. The employees needed to be aware of their inner dimension and

meaning of their work. They also need to be a member of a bigger community of work. The

implication of spiritual elements will increase employee engagement in work and

organization. This finding was in line with Word (2012) that found significant relationship

between workplace spirituality and job involvement and meta-analysis of Dent, Higgins, and

Wharff (2005) which found that spirituality had an intimate relationship to productivity. The

spirituality element supported the idea that each individual has an inherent need for work that

will bring meaning for him (Chalofsky & Krishna 2009).

Self-efficacy related significantly to employee engagement. If the workers are confident

that their ability to integrate into their work is strong, the level of engagement would also be

also high. Considering the process of enhancing the engagement of an employee in his or her

work and organization, the employees are convinced that it is necessary to prepare a space for

those who are really engaged in their work. This essential need is strengthened from

psychology perspective that emphasized the importance of self-confidence as an intrinsic

motivation to reach an achievement (Seligman & Csikszentmihalyi 2000). This finding was

in line with various research studies which found that self-efficacy related to engagement

(Luthans & Peterson 2002; Rich et al. 2010) and performance (Xanthopoulou et al. 2010).

Self-efficacy creates positive environment based on high self-confidence and this would lead

employees to be engaged more in their work in order to improve their performance. On the

other hand, if good performance is achieved, self-confidence of the employees will be

strengthened (Salanova, Llorens & Schaufeli 2011).

Person-organization fit related significantly to the employee engagement. If the

employee’s perceived compatibility of their values and the organization’s value was high and

strong, their will and effort to be engaged in work would also be strong. In the process of

enhancing employee engagement, organizations need to pay attention to the organizational

climate that enables employees to achieve congruence so there will be a balance between the

values of the workers and the corporate culture. This finding strengthened the previous

researches about the impact of person-organization fit (Ambrose et al. 2008; Chatman 1989;

Goodman & Svyantek 1999; Judge 1994; O’Reilly & Chatman 1986; O’Reilly et al. 1991;

Rich et al. 2010; Sekiguchi 2004; Vancouver & Schmitt 1991; Verquer, Beehr & Wagner

2003).

Exchange ideology is found to be related significantly to employee engagement. This

finding contributes to the novelty of the model of employee engagement development. This

research discovered that exchange ideology could be the mediator that linked self-efficacy

and person-organization fit to employee engagement. This contribution is important because

most of the previous researchers suggest exchange ideology as a moderating variable (Ahn,

Lee & Yun 2016; Eisenberger et al. 1986; He et al. 2014; Ladd & Henry 2000; Orpen 1994;

Pazy & Ganzah 2010; Redman & Snape 2005; Scott & Colquitt 2007; Takeuchi, Yun &

Wong 2011; Witt 1991, 1992; Witt & Broach 1993; Witt, Kacmar & Andrews 2001). Only a

few researchers that posit this construct in the mediating role (Ravlin et al. 2012). Through

the mediation of exchange ideology, this research explains the relationship between employee

engagement and its predictors.

MANAGERIAL IMPLICATIONS

In the process of improving sustained competitive advantage through the development of

employee engagement, organizations need to create the climate that accommodates

workplace spirituality. An employee who experiences the spiritual dimension of his work will

find the meaning of work for his life and feel that he is a member of a community. Such a

person will easily engage in work. Besides preparing a special space for the spiritual

development that motivates the employees to be more engaged, the organization needs to

12

develop self-efficacy of each employee. High self-efficacy in the ability to be engaged in

work will strengthen all the efforts for better employee engagement. Employees will

persevere to face difficulties in work, interpersonal communications, and temporary limits of

the organization. Although each employee has his own way to achieve the value of

compatibility, the organization need to build a harmonious coherence between the value

within an employee and the organizational culture. The employees need continuous training

and socialization in order to strengthen the coherent values between the employees and the

organization. In this way, both the employees and the organization can walk together,

motivated by their shared values.

LIMITATIONS AND AVENUES FOR FUTURE RESEARCH

The result of the research, in general, confirmed the significant interrelationship of the

constructs, however, the explanatory power of this model is still at the moderate level. This

shows that the possibility of other predictors for explaining employee engagement.

The insignificant relationship between workplace spirituality and exchange ideology

might take place because of the dimension of workplace spirituality developed in the context

of Western culture of and way of thinking need to be contextualized in Eastern culture. It is

necessary to develop the basic idea of workplace spirituality considering the Sitz im Leben of

Indonesian (Asian) culture. Indonesian society has a local wisdom consisting of a series of

values in traditional spirituality which needs to be explored. Further research will be needed

to understand the workplace spirituality of Indonesians in the Eastern culture and way of

thinking. Such research can be done by using mixed methods or a triangulation method.

Future research needs to develop a more complex model of research so that the

explanatory power of the applied model can be improved. The complexity of a phenomenon

and reality is triggered by many potential variables as predictors. Future research can

consider the development of the research model that involves other constructs, such as

organizational commitment, perceived justice, perceived organizational support, and work-

life balance.
