| dc.description.abstract | Purpose The purpose of this paper is to reports the findings of a study examining the relationship between authentic leadership, attitudes and employees' behaviours. More specifically, how authentic leadership influences affective commitment, job resourcefulness and creativity which, in turn, influence individual performance. Design/methodology/approach Empirical research has analyzed the data from a questionnaire administered to a sample of 543 employees belonging to various public and private organisations in Cape Verde. The model was tested using Structural Equation Modeling. Findings The results reveal that: (a) Authentic leadership influences employees' attitudes (affective commitment, job resourcefulness) and their creativity; (b) affective commitment and job resourcefulness predict the employees' creativity and (c) job resourcefulness and creativity predict individual performance. Practical implications The results from this study can help managers to understand how to increase employees' creativity and performance through, authentic leadership, affective commitment and job resourcefulness. Indirectly, the study also suggests that organisations should focus on selecting leaders with authentic features, and implement appropriate training activities, coaching and development that aim to increase AL since this may well result in a positive impact on employees’ attitudes and behaviour. Originality/value The originality of this study focuses on the integration of these five concepts in a single study, providing a model that depicts the chain of effects between AL, employees` attitudes, employee’s creativity and individual performance. | pt_PT |
