Özet

Otantik liderlik (OL) ile bilgi paylaşımı arasındaki ilişkinin incelendiği bu çalışmada Kaynakların Korunması Teorisinden (COR) yararlanarak, otantik liderliğin hem bilgi bağışlama hem de bilgi toplama ile pozitif olarak ilişkili olduğuna yönelik hipotezler önerilmektedir. Hipotezler Trabzon'da bulunan beş yıldızlı otellerden toplanan anket verileriyle test edilmiştir. Sonuçlar, çalışanların otantik liderlik tutumunun bilgi toplama ve bilgi bağışlama eğilimlerini olumlu şekilde artırdığını göstermektedir. Bu bulguların araştırma ve uygulama üzerindeki etkileri tartışılmaktadır.
