THE EFFECT OF AUTHENTIC LEADERSHIP BEHAVIOR ON PERCEPTIONS OF WELL BEING OF EMPLOYEES

Abstract

An authentic leader is the one who can get his/her hands dirty together with the employees in case of need. It is noticed that his body language and speech are always related to the employee's ideas with his smiling and listening state. This behaviour shows that you are interested in employees, that you are clearly improving yourself to ideas and advices, and that you respect the sharing that has been made. Employees, customers and those who feel and value themselves as a stakeholder within the business feel the happiness of working with the authentic leader owing to this and many other exemplary behaviours. This process will trigger the well-being of the leader and those who follow him/her
