A Study On The Mechanism Of The Influence Of Benevolent Leadership On Burnout

Benevolent leadership is generally considered a positive form of leadership,and although the academic community has shifted its research from studying the positive effects of benevolent leadership to studying the negative effects of benevolent leadership,there is still a lack of research on benevolent leadership itself.Exploring the causes of burnout is also related to individual and organizational development,so the relationship between benevolent leadership and burnout needs to be further explored.This paper selects the resource preservation theory and the working-family-resource model as the theoretical basis,discusses the relationship between benevolent leadership and burnout,and selects role load as the intermediary variable,and organizational support to construct a theoretical model for the regulatory variable.The questionnaire was collected using Credamo’s online platform,212 valid questionnaires were collected,and the data analysis software of SPSS and MPLUS was used for data analysis.The results show that benevolent leadership can reduce the leader’s burnout,role load plays a part of the intermediary role,and organizational support positively regulates the relationship between benevolent leadership and burnout.Facing a high degree of organizational support will make the negative impact of benevolent leadership and burnout greater,and facing a low degree of organizational support will make the negative impact of benevolent leadership and burnout smaller.Discuss the dark side of benevolent leadership on a theoretical level based on a new perspective,and explore the impact that benevolence of leaders can have on themselves.At the practical level,even if benevolent leadership is a generally recognized and loved way of leadership,its impact on itself should be explored.
