“…Quanto aos seguidores, no tocante à humildade nas organizações, os que expressam genuínos comportamentos humildes são considerados mais competentes e confiáveis pelos seus líderes (Yang, Zhang, & Chen, 2019). A confiança dos seguidores em seus líderes tende a diminuir quando os primeiros percebem que seus líderes expressam discursos e comportamentos de humildade desalinhados (Bharanitharan, Chen, Bahmannia, & Lowe, 2019;Swain & Korenman, 2018).…”

Resumo A humildade é uma qualidade pouco estudada no ambiente organizacional. O interesse pelas pesquisas acerca da humildade passou a ganhar alguma representatividade a partir deste século. Contudo, as revisões de literatura sobre a humildade na gestão são raras, tornando-se oportuna a sistematização do conhecimento relevante deste campo. Evidenciar a estrutura intelectual do domínio, as pesquisas atuais e as oportunidades de investigação associadas à humildade nas organizações é o objetivo desta pesquisa. Para tanto, foi realizado um estudo bibliométrico no período 2000-2020, e analisados indicadores de atividade e relacionais - cocitações e acoplamento bibliográfico. Os resultados mostram três grandes linhas temáticas que compõem a estrutura intelectual do campo: (i) conceitos, antecedentes e atributos organizacionais., (ii) métodos e escalas, e (iii) questões comportamentais. As pesquisas atuais estão organizadas em quatro grandes frentes: (i) humildade expressa, (ii) humildade e q, (iii) humildade e equipes, e (iv) humildade e comportamento organizacional. Ao final é apresentada uma agenda de pesquisa futura, com destaque para a análise de como a humildade expressa e os comportamentos humildes podem ser ensinados e internalizados na cultura organizacional.

“…As for followers, regarding humility in organizations, those who express a genuine humble behavior are considered more competent and trustworthy by their leaders (Yang, Zhang, & Chen, 2019). Followers' confidence in their leaders tends to diminish when the first perceive that their leaders' speeches and humble behaviors are misaligned (Bharanitharan, Chen, Bahmannia, & Lowe, 2019;Swain & Korenman, 2018).…”

Humility is a characteristic little studied in the organizational environment. The interest in research on humility started to gain some representativeness this century. However, literature reviews on humility in management are rare, making it necessary to systematize the relevant knowledge in this field. This research highlights the intellectual structure of the domain, the current studies, and research opportunities associated with humility in organizations. A bibliometric study was carried out from 2000 to 2020, and activity and relationship indicators, such as co-citations and bibliographic coupling, were analyzed. Results show three major thematic lines that make up the intellectual structure of the field: (i) concepts, antecedents, and organizational attributes, (i) methods and scales, and (iii) behavioral issues. This research is organized on four major fronts: (i) expressed humility, (ii) humility and CEOs, (iii) humility and teams, and (iv) humility and organizational behavior. Finally, an agenda for future research is presented, emphasizing the analysis of how expressed humility and humble behavior can be taught and internalized in the organizational culture.

“…Examining, in-part, demographic variations in self-reports of humility, Rowatt et 2011) did find that peers reported women to be more humble than men. Moreover, in their study on how humility may impact leadership assessment in the military, Swain and Korenman (2018) found that military men benefitted more from expressing humility than their female counterparts. Swain and Korenman (2018) suggest that because men are less likely to express humility (compared to women), when they do express it they are perceived as more confident and in turn rewarded in terms of how their leadership is assessed.…”

Humility is most frequently discussed as a socially-valuable trait, and being perceived as humble is generally considered beneficial. Although there has been extensive scholarship expounding the concept of humility, previous work has yet to fully examine the role(s) of social status and stratification in regards to the perception of others’ humility and being humble. In this sense, there is an elephant in the room that must be acknowledged in order to advance humility theory. In this paper, we provide brief overviews of humility, social status and stratification, and utilize expectation states theory as a flashlight to explore the potential connections between humility and social status from a more sociological perspective. We then showcase where the “elephant” may be hiding in the humility literature (focusing specifically on race and gender), attempting to shed light on potential next steps for future research
