The Structural Relationship Among Entrepreneurship, Occupational Future Time Perspective, and Behavioral Support for Organizational Change

This study aims to test the effect of occupational future time perspective on the impact of entrepreneurship, which refers to the essential competency of organizational change, on behavioral support for organizational change. Thus, entrepreneurship, occupational future time perspective, and behavioral support for organizational change are surveyed among 366 workers at manufacturing companies, and the final 352 responses are used. Statistical analyses, including structural equation modeling, are performed on the mediation model. The result shows that entrepreneurship contribute positively to behavioral support for organizational change, and that the partial mediating effect of occupational future time perspective is supported in the relationship. Therefore, a method can be devised to increase behavioral support for organizational change among various solutions in a highly uncertain business environment. Additionally, practical implications are suggested.
