    Abstract

    Building on similarity-attraction theory and extending research on person-organization value congruence and organizational identification, this study examines the relationship between perceived leader-employee value congruence and leader identification. Using a two-wave design, data was collected twice with a six months’ time lag from a sample of 282 employees. Utilizing cross-lagged analyses, we examined bidirectional effects between perceived leader-employee value congruence and leader identification. The results provided support for the positive relationship of perceived leader-employee value congruence (Time 1) to leader identification (Time 2) but could not exclude the possibility of a bidirectional relationship. Overall, the study highlights the importance of value congruence for identification processes.
