Abstract Through 335 leader-employee dyads questionnaires, based on the conservation of resources theory, this study constructs and evaluates the resource conservation path and resource investment path of laissez-faire leadership influencing employees’ job crafting, and further estimates the moderating role of career insight from the perspective of individual trait resource differences. The results show that: laissez-faire leadership not only aggravates employees’ role ambiguity and hinders job crafting, but also improves employees’ perceived job autonomy and promotes job crafting; career insight negatively and positively moderates the influence of laissez-faire leadership on role ambiguity and perceived job autonomy respectively; furthermore, the moderating effect of career insight on job autonomy has been verified.
