Abstract

This study examines the influence of technology innovations on line managers’ engagement in the world of work. Two hundred and thirty-four (234) line managers were surveyed, out of which two hundred and seventeen (217) copies of the questionnaire were returned and used for the analysis. Smart PLS (3.0) was used for the analysis. Findings show that telecommuting, work process automation, mobile collaboration, and gamification significantly influence line managers' job engagement. The study recommended that public parastatals should leverage technological innovations to improve line managers' job engagement. However, line managers must also understand their critical roles as professionals to take advantage of technological innovations for improved job engagement
