Abstract

Based on upper echelon theory and social identity theory of leadership, the current research examined how and under what condition CEO workaholism influenced organizational performance. Specifically, we propose that CEO workaholism positively predicts collective organizational engagement, which has a subsequent positive effect on organizational performance. Leader identification moderates the relationship between CEO workaholism and collective organizational engagement in such a way that workaholic CEOs are more likely to stimulate collective organizational engagement when top management team highly identifies with them. Using the dataset from 92 CEOs and their corresponding top management teams, the empirical results confirmed the hypothesized model. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.
