Abstract
This study explores how employees us proactive strategic behavior in combination with other proactive work behavior and proactive person-environment fit behavior. Specifically, by using 266 focal manager-supervisor dyads, we study the link between proactive strategic scanning, voice, feedback-seeking and performance. As hypothesized, proactive strategic scanning is positively related to voice. We argue that the link is sequential, in such a way that voice mediates the positive effect of strategic scanning on performance, which is supported by our results. In addition, we find partial support that higher levels of feedback-seeking moderate the strategic scanning-performance relationship. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.
