The purpose of this paper is to examine if personal identification could explicate the black box between participative leadership and employee ambidexterity. Also, the authors aim to explore how and why the top-down effects of higher-level leadership styles affect lower-level outcomes.

The Holy Grail in business can mean different things to different people, but it is always represented as a good thing. It is usually something intangible, just out of reach for most mortal businessmen and women. Perhaps it is a sales target just out of reach, or a new product that will revive the fortunes of a moribund company. For others, it is something that has already been achieved, or that can be emulated in a parallel sector – the Apple iPhone, the Ford Model T or Microsoft’s Windows operating system. For those companies, they created their own Holy Grail, and boy did it deliver untold riches for them.
