Abstract

Recent theoretical and empirical work has developed the concept of authenticity, both as it relates to leader authenticity and as it relates to authenticity in followers. The present study examines perceptions of employee authenticity and perceived leader authenticity and highlights the utility of jointly examining the congruence between the two to predict individual-level outcomes. The present study utilized Qualtrics Panels to recruit three waves of survey participants. A total of 420 participants responded to all three time points. Polynomial regression, response surface modeling, and a block variable approach with indirect effects were used to test our hypotheses. Results supported the effect of authenticity congruence on individual-level work-related outcomes. Leader–member exchange was found to be a mediating variable between leader–follower authenticity congruence and outcomes in the work and non-work domains.

最近的理论和实证研究发展了真实性的概念，既涉及领导者的真实性，又涉及追随者的真实性。本研究考察了对员工真实性和领导者真实性的看法，并强调了共同检查两者之间的一致性以预测个人水平结果的效用。本研究利用Qualtrics小组招募了三波调查参与者。共有420名参与者对所有三个时间点做出了回应。多项式回归，响应面建模和具有间接影响的块变量方法用于检验我们的假设。结果支持真实性一致性对个人水平的工作相关结果的影响。
