“…Personality tests allow management to understand an individuals' inner character (Zhang et al. , 2021), and feedback allows to understand an individual's concern for others at the workplace (Saadullah et al. , 2020).…”

“…This can be achieved through various personality tests and 360-degree feedback of those who are to be promoted as leaders/supervisors. Personality tests allow management to understand an individuals' inner character (Zhang et al, 2021), and feedback allows to understand an individual's concern for others at the workplace (Saadullah et al, 2020). Moreover, leader training programs that focus on fostering a more accurate sense of one's interdependence with other people should also be strongly encouraged to prevent leaders' extremely self-interested behaviors (Guo et al, 2021).…”

PurposeHealthcare workers are considered to be the most vulnerable to face mental health. Therefore, this paper aims to examine how negative leadership (despotic leadership) affects employees' psychological distress. Specifically, the authors investigated bullying behavior as mediating mechanism and hostile attribution bias as boundary condition that trigger psychological distress.Design/methodology/approachThe authors collected data from 252 nurses and their immediate supervisors (as a coping strategy for common method bias) through “Google Forms” from various public and private hospitals.FindingsThe authors applied structural equation modeling and noted that despotic leadership positively affects employees' psychological distress through bullying behavior. In addition, hostile attribution bias is identified as an important factor in amplifying the effect of bullying behavior on psychological distress.Research limitations/implicationsThe authors collected data from high-power distance culture where negative leadership is more prevalent as compared to low-power distance culture. Their findings suggest management to discourage self-centered leaders (despotic) and employees with negative personality traits (hostile attribution bias) as these affect their mental health.Originality/valueDrawing upon conservation of resources theory, this study is the first of its kind that has investigated how and when despotic leadership affects employees' psychological distress. In addition, the authors also highlighted the importance of negative personality traits (hostile attribution bias) that can amplify the association between bullying behavior and psychological distress.

“…Emosi positif yang dihasilkan dari interaksi tersebut dapat meningkatkan kinerja auditor dan tim yang bersangkutan (Dewi & Dewi, 2018). Supervisor yang extrovert juga tidak teridentifikasi dengan tingkat supervisi kasar, tetapi berhubungan positif dengan pemberian feedback kepada auditor junior atas kinerja mereka baik positif maupun negatif (Saadullah, Bailey, & Awadallah, 2020). Sikap ini menjadikan staf audit mudah beradaptasi dengan tugas yang diberikan dan menjaga stabilitas emosionalnya.…”

“…Supervisor yang berkepribadian conscientiousness akan memberikan umpan balik mengenai kinerja anggota, baik secara positif maupun negatif (Saadullah, Bailey, & Awadallah, 2020). Sikap supervisor yang sangat teliti, berorientasi pada tujuan, dan berusaha menciptakan lingkungan kerja yang adil bagi karyawan menyebabkan tidak adanya hubungan conscientiousness dengan stres kerja.…”

“…Seseorang dengan kepribadian ini memiliki ketertarikan terhadap hal-hal baru, rasa ingin tahu yang tinggi, kreatif, imajinatif, berpikiran terbuka, dan intelektual (Camps, Stouten, & Euwema, 2016;Ivanchevich, Konopaske, & Matteson, 2007;McCrea & Costa, 1999;Soto & Jackson, 2013). Kepribadian openness to experience tidak memiliki hubungan dengan pemberian dukungan dari supervisor kepada staf auditor (Saadullah, Bailey, & Awadallah, 2020).…”

Research on supervisor personality and auditor resilience is still limited so it is an interesting topic to study. Audit staff is one of the professions susceptible to stress due to environmental pressure. This stressful condition can lead to dysfunctional act. This study aims to determine the effect of work stress on the decline in the audit quality moderated by the supervisor's personality and auditor resilience. The respondents of this study were audit staff in public accounting firms in Malang. Moderated Regression Analysis was used to test the six hypotheses. Based on the results of the study, work stress has a positive effect on the act of decreasing audit quality. Extroversion supervisor personality can mitigate the effect of work stress on audit quality decline, while agreeableness personality can strengthen this impact. The personality, conscientiousness and neuroticism of the supervisor, as well as audit staff resilience had no influence. This suggests that the supervisor's personality plays a role in reducing the possibility of audit staff lowering the quality of the audit.AbstrakPenelitian tentang kepribadian supervisor dan resiliensi auditor masih terbatas sehingga merupakan topik yang menarik untuk diteliti.
