Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between coaching leadership style and followers’ job performance with organizational culture dimensions involvement and consistency as a moderator. The study is based on the combination of work by Daniel Goleman’s theory of emotional intelligence by incorporating its coaching leadership style, the work performance framework by Campbell, and the model of organizational culture by Denison and Mishra. The study follows positivism, explanatory, and quantitative approaches. Data have been collected through questionnaires from 187 respondents. SPSS 20 is been used for Data tabulation and regression analysis and Process 3 is been used for moderation. Results reveal the positive relationship of coaching leadership with task and contextual performances and the negative relationship with counterproductive work behaviors in employees. Moreover, moderation of organizational culture has also been identified in the relationship between coaching leadership with task performance and counterproductive work behaviors. The study further uncovers the moderating role of the dimensions of organizational culture like innovation and consistency on the relationship between coaching leadership and dimensions of job performance. This study will be helpful for managers or decision-makers to realize the importance of coaching leadership in the workplace including the Pharmaceutical sales force.
