企业公仆型领导与下属反生产行为关系的实证研究

自从公仆型领导(servant leadership)由Greenleaf(1977)提出后,逐渐成为领导学研究中的前沿研究领域,为研究领导有效性问题提供全新视角,但国内学术界有关公仆型领导的研究文献却凤毛麟角,特别是实证研究极其少见。本研究探讨公仆型领导对下属反生产行为的作用机制,并引入领导-下属关系质量作为二者的中介变量,下属工作丰富度作为调节变量,研究课题具有一定的前瞻性。通过对长沙、深圳、北京、广州这四个城市的一些企业进行调查,收集273份有效问卷,使用SPSS 17.0和AMOS 7.0统计软件,通过基本描述性统计、信度分析、相关分析、回归分析结构方程模型等,主要研究结论有:(1)公仆型领导与下属反生产行为显著负相关,公仆型领导对下属反生产行为有显著预测作用;(2)领导-下属关系质量在公仆型领导与下属反生产行为之间存在着中介作用。(3)下属工作丰富度在公仆型领导与下属反生产行为之间并不存在着调节作用。     

创业中的变革型领导对组织公民行为的影响:组织承诺的中介作用

现有研究发现,变革型领导方式能有效促进组织公民行为的发生,但对两者间影响机制和中介变量的研究还未有定论.基于此,本文以创业企业为研究对象,研究创业中的变革型领导与组织公民行为之间的关系,尤其关注员工组织承诺在其中的中介作用.通过结构方程模型研究发现:创业中的变革型领导方式与组织公民行为是正相关关系,而且员工组织承诺在两者间起部分中介作用.研究告诉创业者,除了自身通过变革型领导方式来直接唤起组织公民行为的发生,还需通过更多的互动和交换来编织员工与组织间的心理纽带,提升员工组织承诺的强度,由此促使员工外化为具体的工作投入,即组织公民行为.研究的理论贡献在于,挖掘了领导方式-员工心理活动-员工工作活动之间的互动关系.

Leadership,Creative Problem‐Solving Capacity,and Creative Performance: The Importance of Knowledge Sharing

This article presents two studies that examine whether leader supportive behaviors facilitate knowledge sharing and employee creative problem‐solving capacity, thereby enhancing creative performance. The findings from both studies indicate that leader supportive behaviors are directly and indirectly related, through both internal and external knowledge sharing, to employee creative problem‐solving capacity. In addition, creative problem solving was related to the two dimensions of creative performance—fluency and originality. However, a test of the mediation model indicated that creative problem solving only mediated the relationship between internal knowledge sharing creative performance and originality. These findings highlight the complex process by which leaders facilitate both internal and external knowledge sharing and employee creative problem‐solving capacity, thereby improving employee creative performance.     

The impact of participative leadership on job performance and organizational citizenship behavior: distinguishing between the mediating effects of affective and cognitive trust

This study examines the mediating effects of cognitive trust and affective trust on the relationship between supervisors' participative leadership behavior and subordinate work outcomes, using data obtained from 247 dyads in a manufacturing organization located in mainland China. Structural equation modeling revealed that while affective trust fully mediated the relationships between participative leadership of supervisor and subordinate job performance and organizational citizenship behavior, cognitive trust had non-significant effects. These findings underscore the importance of interpersonal interactions between the supervisor and subordinate for engendering subordinate work outcomes. They also lend support to the exchange (relationship)-based explanation as to how trust enhances the response of subordinates to the participative leadership behavior of their immediate supervisor, given that affective trust involves a process of social exchange between both parties over an extended period of time.     

Linking transformational leadership and employee creativity in the hospitality industry: The influences of creative role identity,creative self-efficacy,and job complexity

Integrating transformational leadership, creativity and social cognitive theories, we explore the relationships among transformational leadership, creative role identity, creative self-efficacy, job complexity and creativity. Structural equation modeling (SEM) with bootstrapping estimation was conducted using data from 395 supervisor–employee dyads from international tourist hotels in Taiwan. The results show that supervisors' transformational leadership positively influenced employee creative self-efficacy and creativity. Moreover, creative role identity was found to mediate the relationship between transformational leadership and employee creative self-efficacy, while both creative role identity and creative self-efficacy were found to mediate the relationship between transformational leadership and employee creativity. Specifically, job complexity was found to moderate the relationship between transformational leadership and employee creative role identity, the relationship between employee creative role identity and creative self-efficacy, and the relationship between employee creative self-efficacy and creativity. We discuss the implications of these results for research and practice in hospitality context.     

The Effects of Leader Succession and Prior Leader Experience on Postsuccession Organizational Performance

In this article we strive to reconcile equivocal findings about the effects of top leader succession and prior leadership experience on postsuccession organizational performance. In doing so, we draw on insights from theories of human capital, learning, and asymmetric information to better understand the conditions under which leaders increase or decrease postsuccession performance. Employing a sample of 119 newly appointed leaders in the English Premier League (1996–2010), we find the following results. First, relating to the succession event, outside leaders that directly move between leadership positions are associated with higher postsuccession performance while the departure of a prior leader to a leadership position in another organization has a negative effect on postsuccession performance. Second, relating to prior leadership experience, leaders with domestic top leader experience are associated with lower postsuccession performance, while leaders with foreign top leader experience are associated with higher postsuccession performance. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
