Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to assess the impact of authentic leadership on compensating and developing employees by their superiors. The article presents the results of a survey conducted in 2022, using the CAWI method, on a sample of Polish managers (N = 83). Multiple regression was used in the analysis of the results. The results of the research confirmed the existence of a positive relationship between authentic leadership and the use by managers of practices in the field of employee compensation and development. The frequency of using compensation practices increases with the level of the managerial position in the organizational structure. Actions aimed at developing subordinates are undertaken more intensively by managers in large organizations. Their intensity decreases with seniority at managerial position. The article complements the knowledge on the relationship between authentic leadership and managers’ practices in the field of human capital management in the areas of compensation and employee development.
