Abstract
MORELO-PEREIRA, Michelle; FERREIRA, Maria Cristina and YALENTINI, Felipe. The Mediation of Harmonious Passion for Work in the Servant Leadership and Work Intentions Relationship: A Longitudinal Study. Act.Colom.Psicol. [online]. 2022, vol.25, n.2, pp.11-24. Epub Aug 04, 2022. ISSN 0123-9155. https://doi.org/10.14718/acp.2022.25.2.13.
This study evaluated the relationship between servant leadership and work intentions, mediated by passion for work, in a longitudinal study. Data were collected in three waves, with three-month intervals in between, totaling a six-month data collection period. The total sample consisted of 479 workers of both genders (70.4% women) from all Brazilian regions. The results of the cross-lagged panel analysis showed that the servant leadership positively predicted work intentions. In addition, passion for work partially mediated the relationship between servant leadership and work intentions. However, contrary to expectations, this mediation was negative. The results are discussed according to the Passion for Work Assessment Model, which provided theoretical support for the investigation.
