This article examines the application of "enlightened self-interest" to the leadership functions in the highly competitive, hyperturbulent health care industry. Empirical evidence is offered that demonstrates that prosocial leadership behavior enhances the willingness of workers to sustain not only a high level of quality work performance but also an advanced degree of citizenship behavior in the workplace.
