Abstract
In this study, we propose that supervisory expectations for creativity would have a stronger positive effect on innovative behavior for newcomer with lower level of organizational identification. For these newcomers, supervisory expectations for creativity serves as an external cue that elicits newcomer innovative behaviors because these newcomers would experience fewer losses than those with high identification. Further, we propose that motivating characteristics of the job (i.e., job autonomy) enhances the positive impact of supervisor expectation of creativity for those newcomers less strongly identifying with the organization. We argue that when those newcomers are more resourceful in terms of freedom to decide how to perform jobs (greater job autonomy), the effect of supervisor expectations on innovative behaviour is stronger.
