From the author: Recently much interest has focused on ingratiation as an upward influence tactic and its effects on targets. Yet few studies have investigated indirect effects - how coworkers respond to peers' use of ingratiation when interacting with the supervisor. A laboratory experiment was conducted to examine how one subordinate's use of ingratiation directed at the supervisor affects attitudes and perceptions of other coworkers who witness the ingratiation attempts. Subjects consisted of 112 undergraduate students. Interestingly, the results of this study suggest that the witnessing of subordinate ingratiation increases coworker satisfaction with the supervisor and perceptions of fairness. Suggestions for future research and implications for managerial action are presented. Citation Details Title: Coworker responses to others' ingratiation attempts. Author: Sandy J.
