Research On The Influence Of Constructive Narcissistic Leadership On Employees' Proactive Change Behavio

With the rapid development of science and technology and the fierce impact of the COVID-19 epidemic,the social environment of enterprises is becoming more and more complex and difficult to control.The reform and development of high-tech has brought unprecedented opportunities and challenges to the industry.Under this background,how to motivate employees’ enthusiasm,stimulate their initiative behavior,and quickly lead the change and innovation has become the key factor for enterprises to maintain long-term competitive advantage.However,at present,most of the leadership styles in enterprises are traditional "top-down" over-centralization.Under the leadership of this kind of leadership style,employees’ emotions,thoughts and wishes are strictly limited,and it is difficult to stimulate active change behaviors.Scholars at home and abroad call for leaders to abandon the traditional leadership mode,inspire and lead subordinates with great insight and sense of delight,and create preconditions for subordinates to take the initiative to implement change behaviors.Constructive narcissistic leaders have great vision,empathy awareness and innovative ability,and can change the future by stimulating subordinates’ self-confidence and initiative motivation.On this basis,starting from the Chinese situation,this paper selects three variables of role breadth self-efficacy(ability motivation),innovation willingness(willingness motivation)and positive emotion(energy motivation)according to the three motivation paths of active motivation model to construct the influence of constructive narcissistic leadership on employees’ proactive change behavior,and deeply explore the mechanism between them.The related research results show that:(1)constructive narcissistic leadership has a positive impact on employees’ proactive change behavior;(2)Constructive narcissistic leadership can have a positive impact on role breadth self-efficacy,innovation willingness and positive emotion;(3)Employee’s role breadth self-efficacy,innovation willingness and positive emotion positively influence employee’s proactive change behavior;(4)Employee’s role breadth self-efficacy,innovation willingness and positive emotion play an intermediary role between constructive narcissistic leadership and employee’s proactive change behavior.That is,constructive narcissistic leadership can influence employees’ proactive change behavior by influencing their role breadth self-efficacy,innovation willingness and positive emotion.In this paper,the proactive motivation model,regulatory focus theory and the broaden-and-build theory of positive emotion are used for reference to carry out the related research on constructive narcissistic leadership,which is not only enriches the theoretical research of related variables,but also helps enterprises to face up to the positive role of narcissistic leadership,and provides theoretical reference and practical guide for enterprises to motivate employees to actively change their behaviors and achieve sustainable development in the fierce and turbulent economic environment.Under the background that change and innovation have become the theme of the times,enterprises need to correctly lead and play the positive role of constructive narcissistic leadership,improve employees’ role breadth self-efficacy,stimulate employees’ willingness to innovate,enhance employees’ emotional experience,and create a good organizational atmosphere for employees to implement change behaviors.
