ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to examine the mediating effects of leader-member exchange (LMX) in the relationship between authentic leadership and quiet quitting and moderating effect of self-efficacy. To verify this, an online survey was conducted on employees of Small and medium-sized companies in China, and an empirical analysis was conducted using the statistical program SPSS 27.0. The research results are as follows. First, authentic leadership has a negative effect on quiet quitting and a positive effect on LMX. Second, LMX has a partial mediating effect in the relationship between authentic leadership and quiet resignation. Third, self-efficacy plays a controlling role in the influence of LMX on quiet resignation. These findings provided practical implications for establishing a human resource management strategy for Small and medium-sized companies by revealing what factors could suppress quiet resignation, and provided basic theoretical data.
