ABSTRACT

The present study examined to see the relationship between abusive supervision and authentic leadership of employees in Bangladesh. Data were collected from purposively selected 150 employees from different job sectors, aged 25-50 years using the Bangla version of Abusive Supervision Scale (Nasir & Rana, 2017) and Authentic Leadership Self-Assessment Scale (Nasir & Rana, 2017) along with a Personal Information Form (PIF) and the data were analyzed by correlation and simple regression. As predicted, abusive supervision was significant negative correlation with authentic leadership (r = -.189, p < .01). On the other hand, simple regression analysis indicated that 3.6% of the variance in authentic leadership could be explained by abusive supervision (R² = .036). Implications of the present study have been discussed in the light of relevant studies.
