Zusammenfassung
Empowerment ist ein beliebter Begriff in Praxis und Wissenschaft. In der Organisationspsychologie wird zwischen dem strukturellen und dem psychologischen Empowermentansatz unterschieden. Vier arbeitsbezogene Kognitionen bestimmen das Erleben von psychologischem Empowerment: Bedeutsamkeits-, Kompetenz-, Selbstbestimmungs- und Einflusserleben. Die vier Empowermentkognitionen beeinflussen viele arbeitnehmer- und organisationsrelevante Variablen. Dazu gehören z. B. die Arbeitszufriedenheit, das affektive Commitment, die Arbeitsleistung oder auch die psychische Gesundheit. Beeinflussen können Führungskräfte das Erleben von psychologischem Empowerment ihre Mitarbeitenden durch gezielte Personalauswahl und -entwicklung, Arbeitsgestaltung, einer Anpassung des Team- und Organisationsklimas sowie durch spezifische Führungspraktiken.
