Abstract:
This study examined the factors that affect retention of proactive employees. Data was collected from
employees in Israel and the results supported the mediating effect of three factors—organizational
commitment, perceived organizational support and managerial communication in the relationship
between proactive personality and intent to remain with the organization. Implications for organizations
and future research are discussed.
