Abstract: The arrival of new workforce generation would necessitate a leadership type transcending traditional boundaries. Organisations must strive to develop a supportive work climate which inspires, strengthens and connects employees to perform their tasks vigorously. This paper primarily seeks to investigate the relationship between engaging leadership and work engagement. With reference to empirical studies and existing research on leadership and work engagement, a positive association between engaging leadership and work engagement mediated by engaging job and engaging environment is confirmed. More importantly, this study deals with the paucity of the structured literature regarding work engagement determinants, and offers a holistic model providing a logical ground for identifying empirical indicators and hypotheses to verify the theory. Apart from extending engaging leadership dimensions, certain paradigms are proposed for jobs and work environment to facilitate work engagement.
