Abstract

Readiness to face technological developments refers to the readiness of lecturers to adapt to changes in the education sector, which is increasingly using technology in every process. This readiness to change can be influenced by several factors, including work engagement and the psychological capital of the lecturers. This study aimed to explain the role of work engagement and psychological capital on readiness to change using multiple linear regression analysis. The participants in this study were lecturers from several public and private universities in Indonesia, grouped into Generations X and Y. Participants were recruited through convenience sampling, resulting in a total of 273 participants. The results showed that work engagement and psychological capital simultaneously influence readiness to change in Generation Y. Meanwhile, only work engagement can influence readiness to change in Generation X. The results of this study offer input for universities in Indonesia regarding recognizing the patterns of adjustment when it comes to each generation’s readiness to change in the face of challenges and demands to use the latest technologies in education.
