Abstract
The present study examined the impact of impression management motives on organizational citizenship behavior. Further, it focused on the dimensional (ingratiation, exemplification, self-promotion) impact on organizational citizenship behavior. This is a deductive and quantitative study. The study was conducted as a cross-sectional study using a sample of 100 executives and managerial level employees in Alumex PLC in Sri Lanka. Data were collected via a standard questionnaire. Regression analysis was used to test the hypothesis. The findings of the study showed that impression management and ingratiation have a negative impact on organizational citizenship behavior. Further, it revealed that there is no impact of exemplification and self-promotion on organizational citizenship behavior.
