Abstract

The aim of this study was to find out the effect of destructive leadership on employees’ self-efficacy and counterproductive work behaviors. The data was collected from a convenience sample of 486 service sector employees in Mersin, Turkey. Descriptive statistics, explanatory factor analysis, and regression analysis were conducted to analyze the data. The results showed that lack of competence in leadership, excessive authoritarianism, and favoritism dimensions increased the organization-oriented counterproductive work behaviors while resistance to technology and change dimension decreased these behaviors. In contrast, insensitivity to subordinates had no effect on counterproductive work behaviors. Furthermore, destructive leadership had no effect on employees’ self-efficacy, but self-efficacy affected counterproductive work behaviors. This study provides theoretical and practical implications for understanding the effect of destructive leadership behaviors on the employees’ self-efficacy and counterproductive work behaviors in the context of the service sector.

破坏性领导对自我效能和反生产工作行为的影响:土耳其梅尔辛服务业员工的研究

本研究旨在探究破坏性领导对员工自我效能和反生产工作行为的影响。数据采用了便利抽样方法,样本来自土耳其梅尔辛市的486名服务业员工。研究采用描述性统计、因子分析和回归分析法对数据进行分析。结果显示,领导力不足、过度专制和偏袒等维度增加了组织导向的反生产工作行为,而对技术和变革的抗拒维度降低了这些行为。相反,对下属的麻木不仁对反生产工作行为没有影响。此外,破坏性领导对员工的自我效能没有影响,但自我效能却影响了反生产工作行为。本研究在服务业背景下,为理解破坏性领导行为对员工自我效能和反生产工作行为的影响提供了理论和实践意义。
