Consumerization of Information Technology (CIT) refers to the emerging progression of IT in the consumer market that has spread to business and government organizations because employees are using any of their own personal mobile technology for work-related purposes. Organizations that support CIT in the workplace should have a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policy designed to (a) safeguard the employee's mobile device, (b) safeguard the organization's network and data assets, and (c) stipulate a code of conduct for the employee to follow as a condition to use their own device at work. This study examined the antecedents of successful BYOD policy adoption and continuance to support CIT in the workplace. This study used a web-based self-report survey methodology to investigate the antecedents of successful BYOD policy adoption among N = 103 employees of U.S based for-profit organizations obtained via LinkedIn groups. Study results found Task-technology-fit (TTF), self-efficacy (SE), personal innovativeness (PI), and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) were antecedents of successful BYOD policy adoption. Policy adoption was measured by employee satisfaction (ES), post-usage usefulness (PUU), and confirmation. Successful BYOD policy adoption in turn was found to predict BYOD policy adoption continuance. The study also explored the mediating effects of SOAR (strengths, opportunities, aspirations, and results), a framework for strategic thinking, leading, and planning designed to empower stakeholders in the whole organization to cooperate on a strategic change initiative. SOAR was not found to mediate the relationship between BYOD policy adoption antecedents and successful BYOD policy adoption. Finally, in testing the employee's mobile cost reimbursement, age, gender, and job role as moderators of the relationship between BYOD policy adoption antecedents and successful BYOD policy adoption, employee age was the only significant moderator. Three recommendations for practice are proposed from the study results. First, because employee familiarity (experience) with their own technology increases both their confidence using the technology and their compliance with a BYOD policy, IT managers are recommended to meet with employees to better understand daily task requirements and ensure the technology aligns with, and supports, task requirements. Second, because employee confidence using their own technology (even more so than familiarity with) increases BYOD policy compliance, IT managers are recommended to help improve the employee's self-efficacy and confidence using a CIT solution in the workplace. Third, because an employee's level of satisfaction is a significant factor in determining whether an employee will continue to adhere to their organization's existing BYOD policies, management should solicit input and participation from employees on the organization's BYOD policy.
