Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between grit and learning goal orientation, and examines whether age moderates this relationship among employees in the private banking sector of Quetta. Grit, defined as perseverance and passion for long-term goals, is a key predictor of motivation and learning behavior. Understanding its connection with learning goal orientation helps explain employees’ adaptability and performance in dynamic service industries such as banking, where continuous learning is critical. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire from a convenience sample of 388 bank employees in Quetta. Validated scales measured grit and learning goal orientation. Correlation analysis, ordinary least squares regression, and hierarchical moderation models were applied. Findings revealed a significant positive relationship between grit and learning goal orientation. However, age showed no significant association with learning goal orientation and did not moderate the grit–learning goal orientation relationship. Thus, both younger and older employees displayed similar patterns. Banks should focus on fostering grit through training and mentoring programs to enhance employee learning orientation regardless of age. Future studies may explore additional moderators such as organizational culture and job tenure.
