ABSTRACT

The objective of this paper is to examine the impact of perceived Authentic Leadership style on ‎employees’ positive emotions during organizational change, considering Trust in the leader as ‎a mediating variable. This research is quantitative in nature and data was collected from ‎employees of a telecom organization in Pakistan through structured questionnaire. Out of 288 ‎questionnaires distributed among employees in organization’s offices in three different cities, ‎‎214 filled questionnaires were received. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial ‎Least Square (PLS) was applied for testing hypotheses of the research. The results show that ‎authentic leadership has statistically significant impact on the positive emotions of employees ‎during an organizational change, with partial mediation of Trust in the leader. This article ‎provides the empirical evidence of the importance of authentic leadership in shaping ‎employees’ emotions during organizational change process. These findings are helpful for ‎organizations undergoing change management process.
