悖论型领导对员工工作投入的影响：有调节的中介模型

通过构建有调节的中介模型,本研究揭示了悖论型领导“如何”影响员工工作投入以及影响“何时”更弱或更强。在3个时点收集了320份员工数据,结果表明：（1）悖论型领导正向影响员工的工作投入;（2）心理授权部分中介了悖论型领导对工作投入的影响;（3）工作复杂性调节了悖论型领导对员工心理授权的影响;（4）工作复杂性调节了心理授权在悖论型领导与工作投入之间的中介作用。以上结论能为管理者促进员工的工作投入提供指导。     

德行领导：探索与反思

领导研究历来是心理学、管理学、社会学、政治学等学科非常重视的课题, 领导对社会、组织、团队的发展也起着非常重要的作用。由于文化的差异, 西方和中国的领导理论有所不同, 在众多学者的不断努力下, 有关领导理论的本土化研究越来越丰富。回顾40多年来中国领导研究中最具自身文化特色的一个-- 德行领导理论, 从研究变迁与概念发展、结构测量、领导有效性等方面对其国内外研究现状进行了梳理和总结, 并在此基础上从存在原因、研究整合、中外比较、时代发展四个角度, 对以往德行领导研究作出反思, 对未来研究提出设想和展望。     

群体潜能对团队创新绩效的影响:转换型领导力的调节作用*

从团队创新内在动力视角出发,考察了群体潜能与团队绩效间的关系,并探索了转换型领导力对该作用过程的影响。研究发现:群体潜能与团队创新绩效有显著的正相关关系,该关系受到转换型领导力的调节,高水平的转换型领导力会增强两者的联系,低水平的转换型领导力会减弱两者的联系。     

国内变革型领导近十年的研究进展*

变革型领导成为我国双转型时期理论界和实践界共同关注的热点。本文在简要说明我国变革型领导发展历程的基础上,运用频数分析法探讨了进入21世纪以来发表在国内17种重要期刊的86篇论文,从变革型领导的结构和测量、变革型领导的影响因素和有效性以及变革型领导有效性的作用机制三个方面梳理了变革型领导近十年的研究成果。最后,我们从以下方面展望了中国变革型领导的未来方向：第一,中国变革型领导的概念：移植和本土化;第二,样本代表性：普遍样本和典型样本;第三,结构：中国的变革型领导结构和变革型领导的中国结构;第四,层次研究：个体、群体、组织、差异化;第五,影响因素和情境研究：嵌入和具体。     

Transparency for the Public Good: When Feeling Powerful Does and Does Not Affect Willingness to Sacrifice for the Environment

In two studies, we tested the hypothesis that the effect of feeling powerful on willingness to sacrifice for the preservation of shared resources depends on whether such willingness is expressed publically or privately. Participants were randomly assigned to either a power priming condition or a control condition and then completed measures assessing their attitudes, future intentions, and willingness to sacrifice for environmental conservation. Consistent with our hypothesis, the psychological experience of power decreased people's environmental attitudes and willingness to sacrifice for the environment, but only when these responses were made privately. These findings suggest that a sense of power, when experienced in private, influences the way individuals feel about and intend to engage in pro-environmental sacrifice. The findings also suggest that this effect may be eliminated when judgments are made transparently, in public view.     

What Does Leaders' Character Add to Transformational Leadership?

The influence of leaders' character (e.g., integrity, humility/forgiveness) has rarely been examined in leadership research. The current investigation focused on the impact of integrity and humility/forgiveness on both followers' perceptions of leaders' worthiness of being followed (WBF) and stress. Results from a scenario experiment (n = 347) and a field study (n = 110) indicated that these aspects incrementally predict WBF above and beyond the impact of transformational leadership. Similar results were found concerning followers' stress with the exception of leader integrity in the field study. According to relative importance analyses, integrity and transformational leadership predict WBF equally well. The results have conceivable implications for human resources (personnel selection and development). Future research should examine additional outcome variables that are affected by certain leader characteristics as well as potential negative effects of the examined character aspects.     

Keeping up day-specific effects of transformational leadership: the role of followers’ emotion regulation

This diary study examines the role of day-specific transformational leadership for followers’ personal initiative. Building on Affective Events Theory, we proposed a direct effect of day-specific transformational leadership on followers’ personal initiative on the same day. Furthermore, we took a closer look at lagged effects of day-specific transformational leadership. More specifically, we hypothesized that positive effects of one day’s transformational leadership can endure until the next day for followers who apply beneficial emotion regulation strategies. We conducted a diary study over five consecutive working days among 97 employees. Two-level hierarchical linear modelling supported our hypotheses. As expected, day-specific transformational leadership positively predicted followers’ personal initiative on the same day. Furthermore, concerning the association between day-specific transformational leadership and followers’ personal initiative on the following day, there was a positive relation for followers applying beneficial emotion regulation strategies in terms of high cognitive reappraisal and low expressive suppression, respectively.     

Linking leader authentic personality to employee voice behaviour: a multilevel mediation model of authentic leadership development

Drawing on self-consistency and self-concept-based theories, this study examined the antecedents and outcomes of authentic leadership. Specifically, the mediating roles that authentic leadership and organization-based self-esteem (OBSE) play in translating leader authentic personality into employee voice behaviour were investigated. The results, from a sample of 408 subordinate–supervisor dyads from Taiwan, provide evidence of a positive relationship for leader authentic personality with direct reports’ ratings of the leaders’ authentic leadership. In addition, authentic leadership was found to influence subordinates’ voice behaviour, as rated by subordinates’ immediate supervisors; notably, this relationship was partially mediated by the subordinates’ perceptions of OBSE. Furthermore, leader authentic personality was indirectly related to subordinates’ voice behaviour through the mediating influence of authentic leadership and, in turn, subordinates’ perceptions of OBSE. The implications of these results for leadership research and practice, as well as directions for future research, are also presented in this paper.     

Leadership transformationnel du superviseur et solitude professionnelle des employés

Based on the multifactor leadership theory (Bass, 1985), the study aims at testing the relationship between dimensions of transformational leadership (charisma, intellectual stimulation, individualized consideration, contingent reward, management-by-exception, laisser-faire) and employees’ loneliness. Participants were 288 adults employed across several organizations. A path analysis with structural equation modeling was performed to test the relationship between dimensions of leadership and loneliness. All relationships were significant except between charisma and loneliness. The results tend to shed light on the importance of transformational leadership in explaining loneliness at work.     

Authentic leadership influences on organisational commitment in a South African state hospital

This study investigated the influence of authentic leadership (AL) on employee organisational commitment (OC) in a South African state hospital. A convenience sample of 222 employees (female = 81%; black = 82%) completed the Authentic Leadership Questionnaire on their perceptions of AL behaviours among their leaders; namely self-awareness, relational transparency, internalised moral perspective, and balanced processing. The employees also completed the Organisational Commitment Questionnaire to self-report on their own OC; namely affective, continuance, and normative commitment. Data were analysed utilising regression analysis to predict employees’ self-reported OC from perceived AL behaviours. Findings suggest AL scores to predict OC scores as well as the OC dimensions of continuance and normative commitment. AL scores did not predict affective commitment. Employees whose leaders apply AL may be able to retain employees through increased OC.
