Abstract

Employee followership is very important to promote organizational development, especially in the face of crises and changes in an uncertain environment. This study is devoted to exploring the formation mechanism of employee followership. Based on affective event theory, this study examines the impact mechanism of participative leadership on employee followership. By collecting 213 employee sample data, using structural equation model and Bootstrap mediation effect method to conduct empirical test, the study found that participative leadership has a positive impact on employee followership. Vitality at work partially mediates the relationship between participative leadership and followership. The results of the research not only confirm the mechanism of participative leadership on followership, but also reveal the black box of the influencing process, but also enrich the application scope of affective event theory to a certain extent, and provide theoretical basis and management inspiration for enterprises to improve employee followership.
