We examined the effect of leader narcissism on the change-oriented organizational citizenship behavior of subordinates and the mediating role of leader–member exchange (LMX) in this relationship. We further proposed that perceived overall justice would moderate the relationship
between leader narcissism and LMX. We used data from 158 pairs of squadron leaders and subordinates in 4 battalions of the Korean Army. Hierarchical regression analysis results confirmed the proposed effects and further revealed a stronger positive relationship between leader narcissism and
LMX when perceived overall justice was high versus low. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
