Summary:碩士 === 銘傳大學 === 管理學院高階經理碩士學程 === 106 === In this article, we examined the relationship between authoritarian leadership and feedback seeking behavior. Unlike the previous leadership theory, authentic leadership does not focus on leader’s control ability or their behaviors, and Leaders advance on the basis of their own values. Authentic leadership is a kind of leadership style derived from positive psychological ability. This study examined the relationships between authentic leadership and feedback seeking behavior. We tested psychological capital and leader-member exchanges (LMX) as a mediating of the relationship between authentic leadership feedback seeking behavior. Based on a sample of 175 supervisor-subordinate matched data from Taiwanese financial Consultants’ and supervisors. We used regression analysis to test our hypotheses. Results showed that authentic leadership was positively related to feedback seeking behavior, and psychological capital mediated the relationship between authentic leadership and feedback seeking behavior. In addition, it also shows that LMX as a mediator of the relation between authentic leadership and feedback seeking behavior. But LMX contributed negatively to feedback seeking behavior. Some academic and managerial implications were discussed.
