Supervisor gender as a moderating factor study shows failure to moderate the relationships of LMX facets and job embeddedness

Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings Researchers established that supervisor gender does not moderate the relationship between four elements of leader member exchange (LMX) and job satisfaction. But job embeddedness mediated the relationship between the four facets of LMX and job satisfaction. And subordinate gender moderated the mediation of embeddedness between LMX facets and job satisfaction. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives, strategists and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
