Abstract

Purpose This study aims to understand the relationship between servant leadership (SL) and followers’ organizational citizenship behaviour (OCB) along with the mediational role of generalized self-efficacy (GSE) and organization-based self-esteem (OBSE) on the relationship. Design/methodology/approach A review of literature on leadership has been carried out to formulate a conceptual model that has focussed on the relationship between SL and followers’ OCB. The paper has also drawn the role of GSE and OBSE with relation to SL and followers’ OCB. Findings The literature has highlighted the importance of SL in promoting followers’ OCB, GSE and OBSE, and the positive relation of GSE and OBSE with followers’ OCB is also demonstrated. Research limitations/implications This is a conceptual work that has drawn from secondary material. A further empirical examination can help validate the ideas that have been proposed here. Practical implications This paper has highlighted the role of SL in organizations. It has also provided ample scope for practitioners to rethink about their current leadership style/approach and to plan their approach in such a way that can facilitate followers’ OCB, GSE and OBSE, which may result in organizational productivity and sustainability. Originality/value This paper has tried to connect two mediators, i.e. GSE and OBSE with SL in the Indian context that has been studied differently concerning different contexts, and that may add a new dimension to the discourse on SL.

仆人领导与追随者组织公民行为（OCB）的关系：广义自我效能感（GSE）和基于组织的自尊（OBSE）的中介作用

目的本研究旨在了解仆人式领导(SL)与下属组织公民行为(OCB)之间的关系，以及广义自我效能感(GSE)和组织自尊(OBSE)在这一关系中的中介作用。设计/方法论/方法对领导力方面的文献进行了回顾，以形成一个概念模型，该模型侧重于SL与追随者组织公民行为之间的关系。本文还分析了GSE和OBSE在语言行为和追随者组织行为中的作用。发现文献强调了语言在促进追随者组织行为、GSE和OBSE方面的重要性，并证明了GSE和OBSE与追随者组织行为的正相关关系。研究局限/启示这是一个从二手材料中提取的概念性工作。进一步的实证检验可以帮助验证这里提出的观点。本文强调了语言学习在组织中的作用。它也为实践者提供了充分的空间来重新思考他们当前的领导风格/方法，并以一种能够促进追随者的OCB、GSE和OBSE的方式来规划他们的方法，这可能会导致组织的生产力和可持续性。原创性/价值本文试图将两种中介因素，即GSE和OBSE与印度语境下的第二语言联系起来，这两种中介因素在不同语境下得到了不同的研究，这可能会为第二语言的论述增加一个新的维度。
