What is the relationship between LMX and employee empowerment?
What will be an ideal response?
In Harris, Wheeler, and Kacmar (2009) empowerment moderates the impact of LMX on job outcomes (i.e., job satisfaction, turnover, job performance, and organizational citizenship behaviors). They found that empowerment and leader-member exchange quality had a slight synergistic effect on job outcomes. The quality of LMX mattered most for employees who felt little empowerment. For these employees, high-quality leader-member exchange appeared to compensate for the drawbacks of not being empowered.
