Abstract
This study clarifies on the outcomes of
authenticity. The study investigated the
association among authenticity, self-monitoring,
in-role job performance, and employee
income. The authors have used the
sequential explanatory research approach
to test the hypothesis and explain the results.
In the first phase of the study, quantitative
data for this study was collected
from 162 respondents working in different
organizations using established scales to
measure the research constructs. Subsequently,
qualitative data from seventeen
respondents (from the same sample pool)
was collected to explain the findings. The
study reveals a negative association between
authenticity and self-monitoring. The
findings suggest that authenticity is positively
associated with in-role job performance
and income. It may be worthwhile
for organizations to design and implement
socialization strategies or intervention efforts
that promote authenticity.
