Trait Approach
|
-"Some people are just more cut out to be a leader"
-early research, atheoretical
|
Resurgence of Trait approach - leadership emergence
|
-constructs that predict: intelligence, need for dominance, self-monitoring
|
Bono & Judge (2004) Meta-Analysis
|
-traits are weak predictors of leadership behavior
|
Judge, Colbert, & Ilies (2004) Meta-analysis
|
-intelligence is a weak predictor of leadership emergence and effectiveness
|
Judge & Cable (2004) Meta-Analysis
|
-physical height is a weak predictor of leadership emergence
|
Eagly & Karau (1991) Meta Analysis
|
-gender is a moderate predictor of leadership emergence
|
Behavioral Approach
|
"effective leaders enact different behaviors from ineffective leaders"
-strong meta-analytic support/data
|
Ohio State studies
|
-measured many leader behaviors
-found 2 factors of leader behavior:
-initiating structure (task-focused behaviors)
-consideration (person-focused behaviors)
|
Initiating Structure
|
-emphasizes meeting work goals & accomplishing tasks, organizing work, communicating work tasks
|
Consideration
|
-friendly, supportive, caring, asking about where followers live, compassion
|
Meta-analytic data for Ohio State Studies (Judge, Piccolo, Ilies; 2004)
|
-correlation between consideration/initiating structure r=.14
-non-common method effects are small (consideration has larger common method bias)
|
Problems with Ohio State Studies
|
-some behaviors don't fit well in either category
-disagreement about whether factors were independent
-effectiveness of behaviors varies across situations
|
Contingency Approach
|
-"relationship between leader behavior and leader effectiveness depends on situation"
|
Fiedler's Theory
|
1. Leaders have stable and inflexible leadership style (dispositional)
2. Situation favorability determines leader success
-enhance leader success through: selecting a different leader, changing situation
|
Fiedler's Leadership Style
|
-leaders are task oriented v. relationship oriented
-measured via Least Preferred Coworker (LPC) Scale, most difficult person to get along with
-low LPC: task oriented
-high LPC: relationship oriented
-LPC has low construct validity
|
Fiedler's Situational Favorability
|
-Leader-member relations: leader & member get a long well
-task structure: task is structured v. vague
-Position power (of the leader): amount of authority leader has
|
Low LPC leaders success
|
-situational favorability needs to be very good, not too interpersonal
-can be very bad, all is bad but task is very important
|
High LPC Leaders success
|
-most successful under moderate situational favorability
|
Fiedler's empirical support - Low LPC Leaders
|
-perform best in high situational favorability only
-struggle in moderate favorability
|
Fiedler's empirical support: High LPC Leaders
|
-perform above average in very high situational favorability (not predicted by theory)
|
Graen's Leader-Member Exchange (LMX)
|
-focus on quality of relationship between leader and member
-partition followers into 2 groups:
-in: favorites, trusted confidants
-out: non-favorites, keep formal relationship
|
LMX 7
|
Seven item questionnaire that provides a reliable and valid measure of the quality of leader-member exchanges.
Meaures 3 dimensions of leader-member relationships:
trust
respect
obligation
|
Empirical Support for LMX
|
-average correlation between leader and member perceptions of LMX is r=.29
-LMX is correlated with job performance
-some measures have poor discriminant/convergent validity eg. Satisfaction with supervisor
|
Liden & Maslyn's new LMX 4 factor Scale
|
-affect: mutual interpersonal attraction
-loyalty: mutual amount of public support
-contribution: what each member contributes to the goals of the organization
-professional respect: each member's reputation for excellent work
|
Transactional Leadership
|
-engage followers in economic, political, or psychological exchange (money, votes, loyalty)
-rewards/punishments
-gets job done
|
Transformational Leadership
|
-leader articulates vision for better future, reframes issues to align with leader's and follower's values, develops followers by giving active roles in the change effort

1. ID & articulate visioin
2. provide appropriate model

|
Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) 2 factors of transactional
|
-Management by exception (active): leader takes corrective action before follower creates serious difficulties
-Management by exception (passive): corrective action after follower creates problems
|
Meta-Analysis for Transactional-formational leadership
|
-correlation between transactional/formational is r=.68
-correlation between transformation and laissez-faire (non-leadership) is r= -.5
-correlation between transactional and laissez-faire is r= -.38
-not so different
-non-common method effects smaller, common method effect higher fo…
|
Why is transformational leadership related to follower behavior?
|
-mediators: LMX, job characteristic perceptions
|
Servant Leadership
|

-Humanity: puts one's own accomplishments into perspective
-Authenticity: expresses "true self," consistent)
-interpersonal acceptance: does not judge, understand where people are coming from

|

-self-reported performance = .24
|
Ethical Leadership
|
-demonstrating normatively appropriate conduct and promoting this to followers through communication, decision making, and reinforcement
