| Abstract | This study explored the essential elements in the development of leadership credibility. In addition, it examined the behavioral aspects of leadership authenticity to determine what is necessary for a leader to be considered authentic. When authenticity in leadership is demonstrated, this study found followers show positive interpersonal behaviors towards team members. Likewise, when leaders exhibit behaviors that are inauthentic, followers demonstrate negative interpersonal behavior towards team members. This study confirmed the influence of leadership authenticity and credibility in workplace productivity in an academic medical center. There is little research evidence that the attributes of leadership authenticity are antecedents to leadership credibility. This study shed some light on this relationship. ❧ Thirty three mid-level managers participated in the study. Data was gathered utilizing the Authentic Leadership Questionnaire ©, a newly designed survey of credibility and one on one interviews. This study was conducted in an urban academic medical center. This organizational context may provide influence on the results, but it also highlights the importance of effective leadership. |
