Despite the fact that its effects on organizations have been studied, it is still not clear how can organizational pride be created. The aim of this research is to identify the drivers of organizational pride and define strategies that help organizations develop it. Its main contribution is that it performs a comprehensive study on the causes of organizational pride, not focusing only on one or two contributors and not considering organizational pride as an intermediary but as a goal. Using a partial least square path model it was possible to conclude that organizations need to make employees feel appreciated by involving them in the decision making process, and promote the organization\u2019s values so employees can relate to them and maintain honest communications to enhance management credibility.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/socsci10030104","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,19]],"date-time":"2021-03-19T03:41:21Z","timestamp":1616125281000},"page":"104","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["How to Build Pride in the Workplace?"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4920-0498","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Leandro","family":"Pereira","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Business Research Unit, ISCTE Business School, 1649-026 Lisbon, Portugal"},{"name":"Winning Lab, 1750-149 Lisbon, Portugal"}]},{"given":"V\u00e2nia","family":"Patr\u00edcio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Winning Lab, 1750-149 Lisbon, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Mariana","family":"Sempiterno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Winning Lab, 1750-149 Lisbon, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9364-534X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Renato Lopes","family":"da Costa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Business Research Unit, ISCTE Business School, 1649-026 Lisbon, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4074-1586","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"\u00c1lvaro","family":"Dias","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Business Research Unit, ISCTE Business School, 1649-026 Lisbon, Portugal"},{"name":"School of Economic and Organizational Sciences, Universidade Lus\u00f3fona de Humanidades e Tecnologias, 1749-024 Lisbon, Portugal"}]},{"given":"N\u00e9lson","family":"Ant\u00f3nio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Business Research Unit, ISCTE Business School, 1649-026 Lisbon, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1111\/j.2044-8325.1990.tb00506.x","article-title":"The measurement and antecendents of affective, continuance and normative commitment to the organization","volume":"63","author":"Allen","year":"1990","journal-title":"Journal of Occupational Psychology"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"491","DOI":"10.1037\/a0013203","article-title":"The Role of Overall Justice Judgments in Organizational Justice Research: A Test of Mediation","volume":"94","author":"Ambrose","year":"2009","journal-title":"Journal of Applied Psychology"},{"key":"ref_3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"87","DOI":"10.1177\/001088040204300209","article-title":"Using job satisfaction and pride as internal-marketing tools","volume":"43","author":"Arnett","year":"2002","journal-title":"Cornell Hotel and Restaurant Administration Quarterly"},{"key":"ref_4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"270","DOI":"10.15208\/beh.2017.20","article-title":"Differences on self-perception of organizational pride and loyalty in millennial & generation X, considering gender and seniority variables","volume":"13","year":"2017","journal-title":"Business and Economic Horizons"},{"key":"ref_5","first-page":"961","article-title":"Impact of Organizational Morality on Employee Creativity: Mediating Role of Organizational Pride","volume":"5","author":"Arshad","year":"2016","journal-title":"International Review of Management and Business Research"},{"key":"ref_6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"103168","DOI":"10.1016\/j.im.2019.05.003","article-title":"How to perform and report an impactful analysis using partial least squares: Guidelines for confirmatory and explanatory IS research","volume":"57","author":"Benitez","year":"2020","journal-title":"Information and Management"},{"key":"ref_7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"160","DOI":"10.1177\/1742715012467487","article-title":"Volunteer leadership: The role of pride and respect in organizational identification and leadership satisfaction","volume":"10","author":"Boezeman","year":"2014","journal-title":"Leadership"},{"key":"ref_8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"357","DOI":"10.1007\/s40685-018-0061-7","article-title":"Do we work hard or are we just great?
