Purposes The purpose of this study is to investigate the correlation between the perception of supervisor intrapreneurship by employees of medical institutions and employee satisfaction as well as the Big Five personality traits. Most previous studies have focused the correlation between an employee’s intrapreneurship and satisfaction. Instead of measuring an employee’s intrapreneurship, this study measures supervisor intrapreneurship from employees’perspective. Therefore, our study investigates the correlation between an employee’s perception of supervisor intrapreneurship and employee satisfaction. Methods The research participants of this study are employees of a reginal teaching hospital in Taichung City. Formal questionnaires were issued to 906 employees in the hospital, and a total of 524 valid questionnaires were collected for a rate of 57.84%. The obtained data were analyzed using SPSS 20.0 statistical software. Results The study found that: (1) The perception by employees that supervisors engage in intrapreneurial risk-taking, proactiveness, and teamwork in management and leadership is significantly positively correlated with employee satisfaction, with active anticipation being the most critical factor. (2) Medical institutions should pay the most attention to employee autonomy, rather than salary and benefits, which are the most frequently mentioned factors, in order to improve employee satisfaction. (3) Employees’personality traits such as agreeableness and conscientiousness have a positive impact on employee satisfaction and employee perception of supervisor intrapreneurship, whereas neuroticism has a negative impact. (4) Employee perception of supervisor intrapreneurship has a modulating effect between personality traits and employee satisfaction. Conclusions Hospitals that are unable to select employees with appropriate personality traits when initially interviewing them can still improve employee satisfaction by managing supervisor intrapreneurship. |
