Keywords:
Visionary Leadership; Career Calling; Voice Behavior.Abstract
Voice behavior is an important source of organizational change and innovation, which is crucial for organizational development. Leadership is an important factor affecting employees’ voice behavior, but few scholars have paid attention to the impact of visionary leadership on voice behavior. In this study, 276 valid questionnaires were collected from several provinces and cities in China, and the relationship among visionary leadership, career calling and voice behavior was explored through linear regression. The results showed that visionary leadership has a positive impact on voice behavior, and career calling plays a mediating role between them. Our study expands the antecedents of voice behavior from the perspective of leadership.
