Abstract

This study investigated the influence of acceptance and pride, organizational support, and teamwork on the organizational potential and effectiveness of CNC machinery manufacturing firms, and examined the mediating roles of organizational support and teamwork. A quantitative research design was employed using survey and causal research methods. Data were collected from 359 employees at operational, supervisory, and managerial levels in CNC machinery companies registered with the Thailand Board of Investment and the Thai Machinery Industry Association. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was applied for data analysis. The results show that acceptance and pride had a significant positive influence on organizational support and teamwork. Although the direct effect of acceptance and pride on organizational potential and effectiveness was relatively low, its indirect effect through organizational support and teamwork was substantially higher, resulting in the strongest total effect in the model. Additionally, both organizational support and teamwork had a significant, positive direct impact on organizational potential and effectiveness. These results confirm that acceptance and pride are key antecedents of organizational effectiveness, with organizational support and teamwork serving as critical mediators that strengthen causal relationships within the model.
