Penelitian ini menjelaskan tentang peran Virtue terhadap Kepemimpinan yang Otentik dengan Adversity Quotient sebagai Mediator terhadap 125 milenial yang dianggap memiliki posisi pemimpin, seperti C-level startup, ketua organisasi, dan penerima beasiswa kepemimpinan. Pengukuran yang digunakan adalah Anchor Personality Inventory (Riyono, 2012) untuk mengukur frekuensi Virtue, Adversity Response Profile (Stoltz, 1997) untuk mengukur Adversity Quotient, dan self-rating Authentic Leadership Questionnaire (Walumbwa, Avolio, Gardner, Wernsing, dan Peterson, 2008) untuk mengukur kepemimpinan yang otentik. Hipotesis dalam penelitian ini adalah, virtue, adversity quotient, dan kepemimpinan yang otentik memiliki korelasi yang signifikan, serta adversity quotient dapat memediasi hubungan antara virtue dan kepemimpinan otentik. Hasil dari penelitian ini sesuai dengan hipotesis. Namun, untuk penelitian selanjutnya, perlu diadakan pengukuran kepemimpinan otentik melalui self-assessment, follower-assessment agar hasilnya lebih komprehensif.

This study examines the role of virtue towards authentic leadership with adversity quotient as the mediator among 125 millenials who have assumed leadership positions, such as chief in their startups, leader of organizations, and awardee of leadership scholarships. The measurement used Riyono (2012) Anchor Personality Inventory to measure the frequency of virtue, Stoltz (1997) Adversity Response Profile to measure Adversity Quotient, and self-rating of Authentic Leadership Questionnaire (Walumbwa, Avolio, Gardner, Wernsing, and Peterson, 2008) to measure authentic leadership. It is hypothesized that virtue, adversity quotient, and authentic leadership have significant correlation and adversity quotient can mediates the relationships among virtue and authentic leadership. The result corresponds with the hypothesis. However, for the future research, it will be more comprehensive if the measurement of authentic leadership was using both self-assessment and followers-assessment
