Abstract: This research examined the mediating role of affective trust along with the moderating role of supervisor–subordinate guanxi on the relationship between innovative work behavior and participatory management. Utilizing data gathered from information workforce consisting of 333 employees in addition to 38 leaders of six firms operating in China, the research affirms that trust mediated the relationship between innovative work behavior and participatory management. This study concludes that a strong relation between participatory management and innovative work behavior exists provided high-quality supervisor–subordinate guanxi is present among employees. The findings and implications for this research are discussed at the end.
