This research aims to examine the effect of organization cynicism on employee’s workplace
deviance behavior and organization citizenship behavior and to assess role of Islamic (servant)
leadership as a moderator. Current study is empirical in nature and study executes cross sectional survey
method to collect data from female flight attendants serving in Pakistan Airline industry. 400
questionnaires were distributed through applying stratified sampling technique and got responses from
280 respondents. Results of the study reveal that organization cynicism has positive significant effect
on workplace deviance behavior, coupled with significant negative effect on organization citizenship
behavior. In addition, Islamic (servant) leadership not only significantly weakens the positive effect of
organization cynicism on workplace deviance behavior but also mitigates the negative effect of
organization cynicism on organization citizenship behavior. Overall, the findings of current study
suggest that organization cynicism is an eminent factor which results in elevating the negative behavior
in employees such as workplace deviance behavior and diminishes positive behavior in employees such
as organization citizenship behavior. However; through employing Islamic (servant) leadership style,
organizations can overcome the employee’s workplace behaviors issues. Study represent significance
through developing and analyzing a model that acquaints the hitherto uninvestigated behavioral issues
resulting from cynical belief along with suggesting Islamic (servant) leadership as a remedy towards
such reactive behavioral problems. Further, the study offers productive insights for practitioners and
researchers and is an addition to the field of organization behavior
