    Abstract

    Drawing from the too-much-of-a-good thing effect and conservation of resource theory, this study aims to investigate the direct and indirect curvilinear effects of spiritual leadership on employees’ role-based performance during the COVID-19 led crisis situation. The study tests a mediated model that elucidates the curvilinear indirect effects of spiritual leadership on employees’ role-based performance through psychological resilience. Our findings of experiment (N=200 working adults) and time-lagged survey (N=216 employees) confirmed that spiritual leadership has an inverted U-shaped effect on employee role-based performance directly, and indirectly through employee psychological resilience.
