Employee Empowerment: A Strategy towards Workplace Commitment

Abstract

Employee empowerment starts with the concept of strategic fit between people, tasks, technology, information processes, rewards and organization structure for which all must be in alignment before the organization can work efficiently. Employees with strong organizational commitment are emotionally attached to the organization and have strong desire to contribute significantly towards organizational success. This leads to increased competitiveness, accountability, risk taking, highly innovativeness, low wastage, and the desire to improve overall job performance. Moreover, increased individual commitment and commitment to work groups or teams improves team performance, interpersonal interaction, and enhances individual performance and degree of satisfaction. Empowerment thus inspires change and increases the level of workplace commitment which increases the degree of individual employee commitment and helping for achievement of organizational goal. Keyword: employee empowerment, strategy, workplace commitment, organizational commitment, individual commitment
