This research explores the unique relationship between covert action and leader survivability, in particular, how leadership styles and personality traits influence this relationship.

Additionally, the employees’ perception of manager goodwill can strengthen or attenuate the positive effect of core concerns accommodativeness on outcome variables especially for male managers. Thus, moderate accommodation is recommended for male managers. For female managers, the results show …
