Moderating Role of Organizational Culture on the Relationship between Authentic Leadership and Knowledge Management

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate whether organizational culture plays a moderating role in the relationship between authentic leadership and knowledge management. The sample of the study consists of the faculty members working at Nevşehir Hacı Bektaş Veli University. A questionnaire was applied to 103 faculty members working in 8 academic units and analyzed. Hierarchical regression analyzes were performed to measure frequency analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis and moderating effect. According to the findings, there is a positive and significant relationship between authentic leadership and knowledge management. On the other hand, it has been found that the supportive organization culture has no moderating effect on the relationship between knowledge management and authentic leadership. In addition to these results, some limitations in terms of theory and practice and suggestions for future research are presented.
