Abstract

Research assumes an effect of servant leadership on adaptive performance but has neglected the psychological processes underlying this link. Based on Social Exchange Theory and Job Demands–Resources Theory, this study sheds light on how servant leadership triggers job embeddedness, adaptive performance, and mitigates burnout. It also examines the mediating roles of job embeddedness and burnout between servant leadership and adaptive performance. We used three-wave data of 318 employees and their supervisors in the hospitality industry of Pakistan, applying structural equation modeling to examine six main effect hypotheses and three mediation hypotheses. Our findings suggest that servant leadership practices foster employees’ job embeddedness and adaptive performance, and mitigate burnout. Job embeddedness and burnout sequentially mediate the relationship between servant leadership and adaptive performance. Further unraveling the mechanisms between servant leadership and adaptive performance, this study implies that managers should recognize employee-perceived servant leadership as an influential factor that enhances engagement and well-being and ultimately the adaptive performance of their followers.
忠诚、健康、投入?通过工作嵌入和倦怠的顺序中介将仆人领导力与适应性绩效联系起来
研究假设仆人领导对适应性表现有影响,但忽略了这种联系背后的心理过程。基于社会交换理论和工作需求-资源理论,本研究揭示了仆人领导如何触发工作嵌入性、适应性表现和缓解倦怠。本研究还考察了工作嵌入性和倦怠在仆人领导和适应性绩效之间的中介作用。我们使用了巴基斯坦酒店业318名员工及其主管的三波数据,应用结构方程模型检验了六个主要影响假设和三个中介假设。我们的研究结果表明,仆人式领导实践可以培养员工的工作嵌入性和适应性表现,并缓解倦怠。工作嵌入性和职业倦怠依次调节仆人领导与适应绩效之间的关系。本研究进一步揭示了仆人领导力和适应性绩效之间的机制,表明管理者应该认识到员工感知的仆人领导力是一个影响因素,可以提高参与度和幸福感,并最终提高追随者的适应性绩效。
