Abstract
While the association between proactive personality and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) has been recognized, the individual level mechanism underlying this relationship and its boundary conditions remained poorly understood. This research has conceptualized the quality of organizational commitment (OC) and Leader–Member Exchange (LMX) at individual level as a mediator to recognize the role of proactive personality and OCB among the employees of the Federal Government of Pakistan. Adopting a purposive sampling technique, data was collected from 292 employees serving in seven public sector institutions to inspect the hypothesized models. Results inferred that proactive personality was positively correlated with OCB, OC and LMX. Furthermore, the mediating role of OC and LMX in the context of proactive personality and OCB was also confirmed.
