Description
<p>This weekly diary study advances research on strategic renewal by extending its scope into the home domain and integrating the Work–Home Resources (W-HR) model. Drawing on 6 weeks of multilevel data from 147 matched dual-earner couples in the United States, we examine how employees' strategic renewal at home fosters strategic renewal at work through the mediating effects of weekly flow at home and self-efficacy. We also test the moderating roles of family and organizational climates for creativity. Our findings revealed that proactive home-based renewal behaviours initiate gain spirals of personal resources, enhancing work outcomes and partner perceptions of work–family balance. This study contributes to theory by conceptualizing strategic renewal as a cross-domain behaviour and identifying flow and self-efficacy as dynamic mediators, while highlighting the amplifying effects of contextual climates in both domains.</p>
