This study assessed the relationship between leadership trust and work engagement with the ultimate goal of developing a model that would specify which dimension of leadership trust would best predict work engagement.
A cross-sectional survey was conducted on a convenience sample (N = 244) representing a response rate of 48.8% from a sample of 500 university employees.
The results indicated only reliance-based trust to be a significant predictor of work engagement, but it was not possible to suggest a model for prediction of work engagement from leadership trust.
Study limitations were, however, identified and recommendations for institution-specific and future research were made regarding these constructs. / MBA, North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2014
