Abstract EN
Purpose : given the lack of research on the dimensions of employees’ intrapreneurial behaviour, the current research speculates on the effect of spiritual leadership on three dimensions of employees’ intrapreneurialproactiveness, risk-taking, and innovativeness.
the study also proposes psychological empowerment as a mediator of these links of spiritual leadership and the dimensions of intrapreneurship.
methodology: survey data collected using a time-lagged strategy from 169 software developers working in Pakistan revealed that spiritual leadership positively influences all three dimensions of intrapreneurship.
likewise, psychological empowerment mediates spiritual leadership-proactiveness.
findings: interestingly, the results revealed that psychological empowerment did not mediate the association of spiritual leadership with risk-taking and the association of spiritual leadership with innovativeness.
thus, we concluded that the dimensions of intrapreneurship can have different nomological networks of predictors and consequences.
significance : for theoretical contribution, this effect is important to study because intrinsic motivation (through psychological empowerment) can be an important predictor for intrapreneurship behaviour.
practical implications: the study provides managers with important practical implications.
