AB - This study is undertaken from a different perspective than other leadership research. This study try to find out what influences the attitude and action of subordinates. This research presents the concept of "acceptance," which means subordinates’ active and voluntary acquiescence to the leader and the psychological operation making them willingly respect their superior. In addition, the research inquires into the factors of determining leader acceptance by subordinates, based on the leader’s power, confidence, and charisma. Finally, the study examines what impact the concept of acceptance has on an individual’s performance (job satisfaction and organizational commitment). As part of this research, 10 organizations and 285 subordinates were sampled. The result of the survey is as follows. First, the referent power of leaders has significant impact on leader acceptance by subordinates. Second, the stronger the leader's charismatic leadership is, the greater the impact. Third, trust-building leadership meaningfully affects leader acceptance by subordinates. Besides, as a result of proving a relationship between leader acceptance by subordinates and an individual’s performance, the study showed that leader acceptance has significant effects on job satisfaction and organizational commitment. In short, referent leadership, charismatic leadership, and trust-building leadership have effects on leader acceptance by subordinates, mainly causing job satisfaction and organizational commitment. These results contribute to providing the first step forward examining the factors which influence leader acceptance by subordinates. Furthermore, leader acceptance leads to positive job performance so it helps in understanding the importance of leader acceptance. The application of the concept of accepting materials or phenomenon to people, especially leaders, should be considered the most important contribution of this research, which provides a subject for further study.
