Abstract

this paper draws on Uses and Gratification theory and aims to explore the role and impact of different types of social media use at the workplace on employee innovative behavior and individual job performance. Structural equation modeling was used in the estimation of the model linking social media use, employee innovative behavior, and job performance. The findings suggest that only the cognitive use of social media in the workplace has a positive impact on employee innovative behavior and indirectly on job performance. In contrast, social use has a significant negative effect on job performance.
