Özet

This study investigates the effects of perceived organizational support (POS) and proactive personality on meaning of work and employee creativity in hotel businesses. Data was collected through a survey of 274 hotel employees, and structural equational model (SEM) was used to test the research hypotheses. The results indicate that both POS and proactive personality have positive effects on the meaning of work and employee creativity. While the mediating effect of meaning of work on the relationship between proactive personality and employee creativity is fully supported, the mediating effect of meaning of work on the relationship between POS and employee creativity is only partially supported.
