説明

<jats:title><jats:sc>abstract</jats:sc></jats:title><jats:p>This study examines the role of political skill in the<jats:italic>development</jats:italic>and<jats:italic>utilization</jats:italic>of network resources at the individual level. Drawing on the behavioural and network perspectives as well as political skill literature, we propose that political skill increases one's network resources (<jats:italic>developing network</jats:italic>), which will benefit his/her performance and career success. Moreover, political skill is hypothesized to strengthen the relationships between network resources and performance and career outcomes (<jats:italic>utilizing network</jats:italic>). A two‐wave study on a sample of 281 supervisor–subordinate dyads from six electronic firms in China confirms our hypotheses. Our examination of the dual role of political skill facilitates a better understanding of the networking process from the perspective of individual skill/behaviour, thus enriching the behavioural theory and network literature. Implications are discussed and directions for future research are suggested.</jats:p>
