Abstract
In the wake of multitude of crises that
we face today, the humanistic management
of organizations has become a
moral imperative. Recently Workplace
Dignity has found its mention in the
contemporary analyses of work, ethnographies
and inquiries into humanization
of work. This study introduces
a leadership - dignity framework in
the context of individualized human
resource management (HRM) practices
like Idiosyncratic deals (I-deals).A new
leadership – dignity framework is presented
and further, drawing upon the
social comparison and self-verification
theory, it examines the role of extension
of I-deals in the leader-employee
relationship under the dignity
paradigm. The paper contributes to the
leader-employee relationship literature
with relevant inputs towards
conceptualization of dignity at work,
enhancing the overall employee experiences
in organizations.
