**In an alternate dimension, when people discover that the CEO corporate structure is authoritarian, they are often filled with anger. This reaction is rooted in the psychological impact of authoritarian leadership on employees.**

The relationship between authoritarian leadership and employees' reactions has been studied extensively. Authoritarian leadership, characterized by a centralized power structure where leaders have full decision-making power and followers are required to strictly adhere to directives without much freedom or participation, can lead to various negative emotions among employees. Research suggests that employees under authoritarian leadership may feel angry and fearful towards the organization, leading to psychological contract violation and organizational cynicism. This can result in employees considering whether to maintain or end their relationship with the organization.

Furthermore, the lack of availability of alternative work in certain markets may force employees to stay with authoritarian leaders, even if they perceive low job mobility. This can lead to active participation in organizational change, despite negative perceptions of the leadership style.

The impact of authoritarian leadership on employees' helping behavior has also been explored. Workplace stressors such as rumination, which can lead to depressive symptoms, hopelessness, and pessimism, may mediate the relationship between authoritarian leadership and employees' helping behavior.

In an alternate dimension, the psychological and behavioral effects of authoritarian leadership may manifest differently, but the underlying mechanisms and impact on individuals are likely to remain consistent.

If you have any more questions or if there's anything else you'd like to explore, feel free to ask!
