Dumas and Meredith Flowers Burnett</p> <p><strong>Publication:</strong> <em>Academy of Management Journal</em>, Vol. 60, No. 1, February 2017</p> <p><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> <p>When employees feel that their values do not match those of the organization, they often respond by pretending to fit in. We examine how leader integrity influences the tendency to create facades of conformity, proposing that employees will actually fake more when leaders are principled. In a laboratory experiment (Study 1), undergraduate students whose values ostensibly differed from those of other discussion group members and the university administration created more facades when they perceived the discussion group leader as having high integrity. A two-wave survey of employed adults (Study 2) replicated the moderation effect and also revealed negative effects of facade creation on work engagement. In both studies, our results indicate that, ironically, when leader integrity is high, the tendency to create facades of conformity in response to low values congruence is magnified. Additionally, our findings reveal that positive attributes in leaders may not always result in positive responses from followers. The results from our study also show that facades of conformity may serve as a partial explanatory mechanism in the relationship between values congruence and employee engagement.</p> <p><strong>Read full article: </strong><a href="http://amj.aom.org/content/60/1/178.short" target="_blank"><em>Academy of Management Journal</em></a></p> <p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-primary-image field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img class="no-float" src="/channels/files/channels/styles/wysiwyg_medium/public/channels/image/patricia-hewling-400-2.jpg?itok=ZF-fCumk" width="160" height="240" alt="" /></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-published-date field-type-datestamp field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><div class="custom-multi-date"><div class="multi-date first"><span class="label">Published: </span><span class="day">18 </span><span class="month">October </span><span class="year">2017</span></div></div></div></div></div> Wed, 18 Oct 2017 18:08:19 +0000 webfull 132034 at /channels
