Description

Background: Authentic Leadership has been linked to sustainable organizational outcomes. Yet its most common measure, the ALQ, provides a factor-level diagnosis that does not always translate into precise development targets. This study introduces PICE as a competency-based extension of Authentic Leadership that disaggregates the four factors into 50 competencies and ethical values to support actionable development. Methods: A three-phase mixed-method design was used: an exploratory review to frame the model, an ALQ field study, and a multi-source (leaders and followers) convergent validation of PICE against ALQ. Internal consistency was examined using Cronbachs alpha.Convergent validity was assessed via factor-level correlations and simple linear regressions.
