Bu çalışmada, pozitif örgütsel davranış bilimi araştırmacıalrı tarafından teşvik edilen ve çalışanı güçlendirici, çalışanlara karşı şeffaf ve çalışanalrın gelişimlerini besleyici bir pozitif liderlik tarzı olarak bilinen otantik liderlik tarzı vasıtası
ile umutlu çalışanlar yaratabilmenin mümkün olduğu, pozitif psikoloji bakış açısı ile ele alınmaktadır. Söz konusu
liderlik tarzının takipçiler üzerindeki etkilerini anlamak için, algılanan örgütsel desteğin, otantik liderlik ile takipçiler
tarafından hissedilen umut duygusu arasındaki ilişkideki olası arabulucu etkisini açıklayan bir model oluşturduk. Bu
modeli İstanbul bölgesinde yer alan ve hizmet sektöründe faaliyet gösteren firmalarda çalışan 237 beyaz yakalı işçi
üzerinde test edildi. Çalışmada, very toplama aracı olarak yüz yüze anket yöntemi tercih edilmiş ve veriler SPSS 20.0
istatistik programında analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonuçları, otantik liderlik davranışının hem algılanan örgütsel
destek hem de umut üzerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı etkilere sahip olduğunu göstermiştir ve sonuçlar, algılanan
örgütsel desteğin, gerçek liderlik davranışı ile takipçiler tarafından hissedilen umut arasındaki ilişkide bir moderatör
görevi gördüğünü doğrulamıştır.

A Model on Authentic Leadership in the Light of Hope Theory

Öz

In this study, we embraced a positive psychology perspective in explaining how hopeful employees can be created
by benefiting from authentic leadership style, an empowering, transparent and nourishing leadership style that is
encouraged by positive organizational behavior scholars. In order to understand this leadership style’s effects on
followers perceived organizational support and hope we built a model explaining effects of perceived organizational
support as a mediator in the relationship between authentic leadership and hope felt by followers. We tested this
model on 237 white collar workers in service industry in Istanbul region. We preferred face to face survey method
and we analyzed our data in SPSS 20.0. Results of the study showed that authentic leadership behavior has statistically significant effects on both perceived organizational support and hope and results confirmed that perceived
organizational support acts as a moderator in the relationship between authentic leadership behavior and hope felt
by followers.
