This paper makes an attempt to critically review the existing literature around the construct and identify research gaps in the field for systematic empirical investigation in order to substantiate future studies. Review of literature was done in order to examine the gaps in the current literature. Four major gaps were identified through the review. Also, a conceptual framework has been developed which incorporates the identified gaps in research to conduct future empirical studies.
