Abstract

Employees’ subjective well-being becomes a particular important issue in modern organizations and scholars are interesting in investigating how to promote and maintain individuals’ well-being. Then, this study, integrated the model of human growth at work and the dominance complementarity theory, examines the negative effect of narcissistic supervision on employees’ subjective well-being and explores the underlying mechanisms and boundary conditions. The hypotheses were tested by a scenario-based experiment and a field study. As hypothesized, narcissistic supervision had a negative effect on employees’ thriving at work, and in turn employees’ low level of SWB. In addition, employees’ core self-evaluations moderated those relationships such that when employees were in high core self-evaluations, they would not experience a low degree of thriving at work and were not likely to be well-being.
