Resumo: In order to continuously develop and prosper, organizations should promote and welcome change. Innovation can come from work-related ideas, suggestions or concerns formulated by employees who are at the centre of operations. Before speaking up, employees weigh the costs and benefits of performing voice behaviour. They assess the supervisor’s receptiveness to voice based on several characteristics that will be examined in this research. This study investigated whether and how leader self-efficacy mediated the relationship between supervisor age and employee voice behaviour. Empirical assessment of 124 supervisoremployee dyads finds no support for the hypotheses. However, the study and its findings still provide some valuable implications for managers and organizations. Additionally, theoretical contributions for future research are discussed.
