The longitudinal impact of a job crafting intervention (2017, background): “In the educational field, Leana, Appelbaum, and Shevchuk (2009) have found that educators who took part in collaborative job crafting (in which employees work together to redesign their jobs) displayed improved performance compared with those who did not engage in job crafting.”
Job Crafting at the Team and Individual Level (2013, methodology): “The latter has only recently gained attention (Leana et al., 2009), but it is important to take team job crafting into account, as most individuals do not work in isolation.”
The job crafting questionnaire: A new scale to measure the extent to which employees engage in job crafting (2013, background): “Ghitulescu (2006) and Leana, Appelbaum, and Shevchuk (2009), for example, developed measures of job crafting that were highly specific to their populations of interest— manufacturers and teachers, respectively—and hence contain items specifically targeted towards these two occupation groups.”
Does job crafting always lead to employee well-being and performance? Meta-analytical evidence on the moderating role of societal culture (2020, background): “Empirical results suggest that less bounded and richer crafting activities (Kim & Lee, 2016; Leana et al., 2009; Niessen et al., 2016) yield greater performance outcomes (Petrou et al., 2015; Tims et al., 2014).”
The process of reinventing a job: A meta–synthesis of qualitative job crafting research (2019, result): “Consistent with other research (Berg, Grant, et al., 2010; Leana, Appelbaum, & Shevchuk, 2009; Petrou, Demerouti, Peeters, Schaufeli, & Hetland, 2012; Rudolph et al., 2017), a number of contextual factors were identified that, across studies, indicated that a supportive work context was more likely…”
The relative importance of various job resources for work engagement: A concurrent and follow-up dominance analysis (2021, positive): “Team empowerment could be improved through job crafting by individually seeking new social resources or by collaborative job crafting (Leana et al., 2009).”
Beyond motivation: job and work design for development, health, ambidexterity, and more. (2014, background): “Groups can also initiate work design change (see, e.g., Leana et al. 2009).”
