Abstract

This study addresses the moderating role of empowerment on the relationship between leader–member exchange (LMX) quality and subordinates’ organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). Using hierarchical multilevel analyses, we found that LMX is positively related to OCB. Likewise, we found that team-level empowerment climate is positively related to individual-level feelings of empowerment, which, in turn, positively moderate the positive effect of LMX on OCB.
