领导政治技能会抑制员工的沉默行为吗？——领导信任和权力距离的作用

本研究探讨了领导政治技能对员工沉默行为的作用机制以及权力距离的调节作用。通过三个时间点对68个团队255名员工进行配对问卷调查,结果表明：领导政治技能与员工沉默行为在团队水平上显著负相关,但在个体水平上不显著;在团队和个体水平,领导政治技能与员工的领导信任显著正相关,领导信任与员工的沉默行为显著负相关,并且领导信任中介了领导政治技能与员工沉默行为之间的关系;在个体水平,下属权力距离调节作用不显著。     

领导人际情绪管理和员工建言的关系：有调节的中介效应分析

近年来,领导人际情绪管理（LIEM）作为一种管理和调节下属消极情绪的领导行为正逐渐受到学界关注。本研究通过问卷调查,搜集了314份员工和领导的配对数据。研究结果显示：领导人际情绪管理积极影响员工建言行为;下属信任在领导人际情绪管理和员工建言行为间起到部分中介作用;权力距离对下属信任的中介效应起到调节作用。     

员工为何沉默:领导权力距离倾向与员工调控焦点的跨层次交互作用

基于跨层次的调节-中介模型,检验了员工沉默的影响因素、中介变量及作用边界。来自82个团队447名员工的数据表明:(1)领导权力距离倾向与员工沉默行为显著正相关。在这一关系中,建言有用感起完全中介作用,心理安全感起部分中介作用,且控制建言有用感后,心理安全感的中介效应不再显著;(2)员工的促进焦点会增强"权力距离倾向→建言有用感→沉默行为"间接效应,防御焦点会减弱"权力距离倾向→心理安全感→沉默行为"间接效应。结论有助于揭示员工沉默的产生机制。     

仁慈领导对员工亲环境行为的影响：上下属关系与权力距离的作用

旨在基于社会交换理论考察仁慈领导是否能够促进工作场所中的员工亲环境行为,以及上下属关系和员工权力距离导向在该影响过程中的作用机制。采用“领导-员工对偶”问卷调查法,通过对244名企业员工及其直接上司的调查,结果发现：仁慈领导对员工亲环境行为具有显著的正向预测作用;上下属关系在仁慈领导与亲环境行为之间起完全中介作用;员工权力距离导向对仁慈领导与上下属关系之间的关系存在显著的调节效应;具体而言,当下属权力距离感较弱时,仁慈领导对上下属关系的激发作用越强,反之亦然。     

主管威权领导与下属前瞻行为：一个被中介的调节模型构建与检验

采用214份主管-下属配对调查数据, 考察了威权领导这一华人企业组织中特有的领导方式对下属前瞻行为的影响, 尤其是检验了下属对领导者信任的中介作用与权威主义和集体主义这两种传统价值取向的调节作用。层次回归分析结果表明：(1)威权领导与下属的前瞻行为呈显著负相关; (2)对领导者的信任在威权领导与下属前瞻行为之间起完全中介作用; (3)下属权威主义取向对威权领导与下属对领导者信任和前瞻行为之间的负向关系均具有显著的弱化效应, 并且下属对领导者的信任完全中介了威权领导与下属权威主义取向之间的交互作用对前瞻行为的影响; (4)下属集体主义取向对威权领导与下属对领导者的信任之间的负向关系具有显著的增强效应。

研究以333名国企员工为研究对象,采用问卷调查法,研究探索了仁慈领导对员工沉默行为的影响以及组织内自尊的中介作用和员工面子的调节作用。研究结果发现：仁慈领导负向预测员工沉默行为,组织内自尊在此过程中起中介作用;面子正向调节组织内自尊和员工沉默之间的关系,即面子意识越高,两者之间的负向关系越弱,不光如此,面子意识还调节组织内自尊对“仁慈领导—员工沉默行为”之间关系的中介作用。

The Effect of Employee Trust of the Supervisor on Enterprising Behavior: A Cross-Cultural Comparison

This study examines the effects of an employee’s affect-based and cognition-based trust of the supervisor on that employee’s enterprising behavior. The extent to which two cultural dimensions, power distance and in-group collectivism, moderate the relationship between the trust measures and enterprising behavior is considered. Trust ratings were provided by 130 U.S. employees, 202 Turkish employees, 101 Polish employees, and 86 Russian employees. Their 519 supervisors then provided ratings of those employees’ enterprising behavior. The results show that both affect-based trust and cognition-based trust have a significant, but modest, effect on the employee’s enterprising behavior. Our findings indicate that both power distance and in-group collectivism do not moderate the proposed trust-behavior relationship although power distance almost reaches the level of significance. We call for further research on other moderating variables to explain the findings.     

Forgotten but not gone: An examination of fit between leader consideration and initiating structure needed and received

We examined the effects of fit between leader consideration and initiating structure needed and received on employees' work-related attitudes (i.e., trust in the supervisor, job satisfaction, and affective commitment to the organization). Consistent with predictions that derive from the person-environment fit research tradition, results from Study 1 suggested that deficient amounts of both leadership behaviors were associated with unfavorable attitudinal outcomes. However, while excess levels of consideration were associated with favorable attitudinal outcomes, excess levels of initiating structure were associated with unfavorable attitudes, and for both forms of leadership, higher levels of absolute fit were associated with more favorable outcomes. Results from Study 2 suggested that attitudes generated by the fit between leadership needed and received influence employees' organizational citizenship behavior as reported by their supervisors. The relationship between consideration needed and received and subordinates' organizational citizenship behavior relating to individuals (OCBI) and organizational citizenship behavior relating to the organization itself (OCBO) was partially mediated by employees' trust in the supervisor, while the relationship between initiating structure needed and received and OCBI was fully mediated by trust in the supervisor, and for OCBO was partially mediated.

Cognition-based and affect-based trust as mediators of leader behavior influences on team performance

We develop a model in which cognitive and affective trust in the leader mediate the relationship between leader behavior and team psychological states that, in turn, drive team performance. The model is tested on a sample of 191 financial services teams in Hong Kong and the U.S. Servant leadership influenced team performance through affect-based trust and team psychological safety. Transformational leadership influenced team performance indirectly through cognition-based trust. Cognition-based trust directly influenced team potency and indirectly (through affect-based trust) influenced team psychological safety. The effects of leader behavior on team performance were fully mediated through the trust in leader variables and the team psychological states. Servant leadership explained an additional 10% of the variance in team performance beyond the effect of transformational leadership. We discuss implications of these results for research on the relationship between leader behavior and team performance, and for efforts to enhance leader development by combining knowledge from different leadership theories.     

Authoritarian–benevolent Leadership and its Effect on Graduate Student Creativity: The Mediating Role of Intrinsic Motivation

Despite numerous studies demonstrating that authoritarian leadership and benevolent leadership exert incompatible influence on an individual’s creativity, the combined effects of authoritarian leadership and benevolent leadership on an individual’s creativity and the related mechanisms have yet to be explained. This study tests a model that considers the combined effects of authoritarian and benevolent leadership on graduate student creativity in the universities in China, while also examining the mediating role of the intrinsic motivation of graduate students. Multisource data were collected from 297 graduate students in 60 university scientific research teams in China. The results show that when authoritarian leadership and benevolent leadership are in congruence, the intrinsic motivation of graduate students and their creativity increase as supervisor authoritarianism and benevolence increases. When authoritarian leadership and benevolent leadership are in discrepancy, the intrinsic motivation of graduate students is higher when low supervisor authoritarianism is combined with high benevolence; however, the findings also show that low authoritarian leadership combined with high benevolent leadership would not increase graduate student creativity. The relationship between authoritarian–benevolent leadership and graduate student creativity is partially mediated by intrinsic motivation. The theoretical and practical implications of the results are discussed.     

Does paternalistic leadership promote innovative behavior? The interaction between authoritarianism and benevolence

We theorize about the separate and interactive effects of the two primary elements of paternalistic leadership: authoritarianism and benevolence. Accordingly, we test a mediating mechanism through which these components of paternalistic leadership stimulate employee innovative and knowledge‐sharing behaviors. A multi‐source and multi‐level study involving 302 employee‐supervisor‐peer triads in 60 Chinese technology‐based organizations supported the association between the interaction of benevolent and authoritarian leadership and employee affective trust, innovative behavior, and knowledge sharing. Moreover, affective trust mediated the interaction of benevolence and authoritarianism on employee innovative behavior and knowledge sharing. We suggest that, the two constructs underlying paternalistic leadership might promote employee breakthrough behaviors across cultures. That is, their demanding and yet selfless stance turns authoritarian‐benevolent leaders into prototypes of the followers' aspirational social identity.
