Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between internal saboteurs developed since childhood and job performance, with implications for HRM practices – especially in terms of selection criteria to be used and the whole assessment process. The study was conducted through an online questionnaire which was made available in March-April of 2021. The analyzed instruments are Shirzad Chamine’s inner saboteur questionnaire and Goodman & Syvantek’s Job Performance Scale. The study was performed on a 457-respondent non-probabilistic cohort. Statistical analysis of the data revealed that some internal saboteurs are oriented toward performance, while the others are oriented toward emotion. The performance-oriented cluster seemed to predominate in male respondents, while the emotion-oriented cluster seemed to predominate in female respondents, in line with tradintional gender roles. The main findings are generally in line with previous literature, and they are also suggesting a series of HRM practices aimed at increasing individual and organizational performance.
