Mindfulness in leadership: examining the impact of leader mindfulness on compassion and employee satisfaction with supervisor
| Resumo: | The present research examines the relation between leader trait mindfulness and employee sat-is faction with the leader. Based on reviewing existing literature the author hypothesizes a pos-itive relation between leader trait mindfulness and employee satisfaction with the leader medi-ated by supervisor compassion. A study of dyadic leader-employee data(N=40)shows that leader trait mindfulness is not significantly related to employee satisfaction and no mediation mechanism through compassion was confirmed.Nonetheless, a positive relationship between compassion received and employee satisfaction could be supported. Hence, the findings of the study were only partially consistent with the introduced Hypotheses. |
