Abstract
This study addressed the generalizeablity concerns raised by few in leader-member exchange
(LMX)-outcomes relationships and provided a solution in the form of a new mediator and a new moderator
using cross-fertilization of LMX and social identity theory (SIT). The study aimed at investigating the indirect effects of LMX and job performance (JP) through organizational identification (OI) using social identity
theory. The study also examined conditional indirect effects of supervisors’ organizational embodiment (SOE)
on LMX and JP through OI. The study used data based on a convenience sample from 411 employees in three
time lags. Mediation and moderated mediation tests were performed using PROCESS. Results supported the
mediating role of OI between LMX and Job performance. Analysis also confirmed the conditional effect of
SOE on indirect relationship of LMX and JP through OI. Theoretical and practical implications of results are
also discussed.
