• TITLE: The Influence of Perceived Leader Humor on Subordinate’s Voice Behavior: A Study under Chinese Background

  AUTHORS: Zhiteng Lin

  KEYWORDS: Affiliative Humor, Aggressive Humor, Voice Behavior

  JOURNAL NAME: Open Journal of Social Sciences, Vol.4 No.4, April 27, 2016

  ABSTRACT: Organization Behavior has paid more and more attentions on the impact of leaders’ humor on employees. The leaders’ humor plays an important role in the fight against organization silence as an important means to ease the work pressure and adjust the organizational climate. This study has surveyed 502 Chinese employees to explore the impact of leader’s affiliative humor and aggressive humor style on employee voice behavior. The study found that the leaders’ affiliative humor can significantly promote employee voice behavior, and aggressive humor suppress. Future researchers should pay more attention on the role of organizational factors that influence the process.
