The Relationship between a Leader’s Authentic Leadership and Psychological Capital from the Followers’ Perspective

Journal Title: International Journal of Management Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 6

Abstract

This article contributes to the theoretical understanding of the relationship between a leader’s psychological capital and followers’ assessment of his/her authentic leadership. A sample of working adults who rated their direct supervisors’ psychological capital and authentic leadership revealed a positive relationship between a leader’s psychological capital and his/her authentic leadership. The study also found that both PsyCap otherrated and authentic leadership other-rated scores were a good fit with each theory’s hypothesized model.
