A positive leadership style can promote work engagement. Using social exchange theory, this study examines the impact of employee leadership styles on work engagement. In addition, the link also considered the mitigating role of trust in leaders. Preliminary data were collected from the educational and non-educational staff of the Business Management Sciences and Education Department at different universities. We collected responses from 242 employees from selected universities using the purposive sampling technique. We tested the proposed hypothesis using linear regression. Research has shown that there is a positive link between employee leadership and work engagement. When trust in leaders as facilitators was introduced, the relationship between leadership and work engagement was relaxed to increase trust in leaders. Practical and theoretical contributions to the study were provided with recommendations for further study.
积极的领导风格能够促进工作投入。本研究运用社会交换理论，考察员工领导风格对工作投入的影响。此外，该联系还考虑了员工对领导信任的调节作用。初步数据收集自不同大学商业管理科学与教育系的教育和非教育工作人员。我们采用立意抽样技术，从选定大学的242名员工那里收集了反馈。我们使用线性回归对提出的假设进行了检验。研究表明，员工领导风格与工作投入之间存在正向联系。当引入对作为促进者的领导的信任时，领导风格与工作投入之间的关系变得缓和，从而增强了对领导的信任。本研究提供了实践和理论贡献，并给出了进一步研究的建议。
