Leader credibility issues cannot be neglected because they relate to important employee outcomes such as trust and confidence (Swanson & Kent, 2014) and behavior compliance (Pornpitakpan, 2004). The degree to which an employee will be persuaded to accept ideas and information depends on the credibility of the leaders. Furthermore, source credibility influences the intention of recipients (i.e., intention of employees) to use suggestions made by the source (i.e., leader) regarding the improve performance (Bannister, 1986).
