摘要：This study (n = 217) examined the moderating effect of altruism on the relationship
between political skills and leader success and effectiveness. Multilevel data analysis
was conducted using hierarchical linear modeling. Significant relationships were found
between altruism and social astuteness in predicting effectiveness; altruism and
networking in predicting success and effectiveness; altruism interacting with social
astuteness to positively impact effectiveness; and altruism interacting with networking to
negatively impact success. Results indicate that altruism is an important component of
leadership effectiveness but that altruistic leaders will not seek promotion opportunities
as frequently. Networking strategies result in both leadership success and
effectiveness.
