The topic of employee work engagement in the public sector has attracted broad attention because it is critical to the efficiency and effectiveness of public services. Based on the Job Characteristics Model (JCM) and the Integrative Theory of Employee Engagement (ITEE), the present research adopts a multilevel design to examine a moderated mediation model in which task characteristics (i.e., task autonomy and task significance as level-1 predictors) and social context (i.e., transformational leadership as a level-2 moderator) jointly impact employee work engagement via individual perception of meaningfulness in work. A total of 349 grassroots police officers from 35 police substations were invited to anonymously complete a survey via mobile app. After performing the cross-sectional analysis, the results indicated that in contrast to task significance, the conditional effect of task autonomy on work engagement via perceived meaningfulness was more positive at a lower level of transformational leadership. Implications, limitations, and future research directions are discussed.

This study explored the relationships between neurotic leadership styles, transformational leadership, the emotional intelligence of supervisors, employee job satisfaction, and employee perceptions of leadership effectiveness. The primary objective of this exploratory investigation consisted of determining the extent to which scales measuring neurotic leadership are correlated with extant organizational processes such as leadership and job satisfaction. The study, utilizing a survey was conducted in five law enforcement agencies located in Southeast Michigan. The sample size is 143 police officers. Results of the study reveal significant correlations between the neurotic leadership scales and the other primary factors within the study. It further revealed that the type and strength of the relationships varied across the law enforcement agencies. This latter finding provides strong support for the need to develop empirical studies that integrate psychodynamic and organizational levels analyses.
