The achievement of favorable work-outcomes by employees is emerging as a critical organizational issue, especially as organizations struggle to respond to what is a continuously changing environment. The role of effective Leadership has been widely examined for its influence on employee behavior and feelings. The purpose of this study is to contribute to Leadership and Organization Behavior literature by examining a very well-defined Leader behavior, the act of Self-Criticism, and its influence on three employee work outcomes – Creativity, Voice and Engagement. The study also aims to contribute on research that explores the relationship among Leadership, context, and work outcomes, as it uses employee perception of organizational politics as the mediator variable to explain the aforementioned relationship. To address my objectives, I conducted an online survey (N= 152) using Prolific Academic - an online labor marketplace. I demonstrated that Leader Self-Criticism has a positive direct effect on employee Creativity, Voice, Engagement and Organizational Politics Perceptions and that the later, indeed, acts as a mediator variable. The theoretical and managerial implications of the findings are discussed in relation to Organizational Change, Leadership and the Positive Psychology movement.
