Abstract:
Adaptive leadership is a leadership style that plays an important role for all leaders in the face of constant change and fluctuating environments. This study was conducted to examine the influence of leader behaviour on employee engagement with the organization. Based on the literature review, the proposed research model includes four adaptive leader behavioural variables that positively affect the employee's engagement in the organization, including identifying the adaptive challenges, regulating distress, maintaining disciplined attention, and empowerment. Quantitative research was conducted by interviewing 219 employees working at Ho Chi Minh City organizations. The data were evaluated by Cronbach's Alpha Reliability, Exploratory Factor Analysis and Linear Regression Analysis. The research results show that the leader's behaviour positively affects employee engagement, including identifying the adaptive challenges, regulating distress and empowerment. These results will be the basis to help adaptive leaders develop appropriate behaviours, strategies and policies in improving employee engagement to promote the highest effectiveness of employees.
