Özet

Öz In the highly competitive work environment of today, employees seem to be lacking work passion. Work passion is the inner fire. Leaders who ignite spirit, encourage passion and light the spark in employees to create the fire in their work environment are called the “sparking leaders”. The sparking leaders play an important role in organizations, but theoretical understanding of who they are and what impact they have in organizational outcomes is lacking. The present paper builds on fragmented and disparate extant work to conceptualize the nature of sparking leadership associated with work passion and job satisfaction of the employees. Consistent with the theoretical foundation behind previous research, the findings of the study reveal that sparking leaders have a positive effect on the subordinates’ work passion, which further leads to a higher job satisfaction. This means that the sparking leaders create the fire in an organization so that their work passion energizes their subordinates.
