This study explores how gender predicts millennial employee motivation to take a leadership role within a work organization. Previous studies have considered multiple factors in predicting three distinct types of employee motivation to lead, but none have considered how gender may impact this relationship, specifically within the millennial population. Using a sample of 210 employees from a range of industries, results indicate that gender directly affects two types of motivation to lead. In addition to enhancing the theoretical model of employee motivation to accept organizational leadership responsibilities, the results have practical significance for organizations concerned with attracting and developing millennial organizational leaders.
本研究探讨了性别如何预测千禧一代员工在工作组织中担任领导角色的动机。先前的研究已经考虑了多种因素来预测三种不同类型的员工领导动机，但没有考虑到性别如何影响这种关系，特别是在千禧一代中。本研究使用了来自多个行业的 210 名员工的样本，结果表明性别直接影响两种领导动机。除了增强员工接受组织领导责任的动机理论模型外，这些结果对关注吸引和培养千禧一代组织领导者的组织具有实际意义。
