This book was released on 2021-04-14 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is hard to overstate the importance of the leader-member exchange relationship. Employees who share a high-quality relationship with their leader are more likely to earn a higher salary, climb the ranks more quickly, and report higher life satisfaction levels than their peers who have a less copasetic leader-member relationship. While Leader-Member Exchange Theory (LMX) research addresses the impact that the leader-member relationship has on the individual employee experience, much of this scholarship overlooks or obscures the vital role that communication plays in the development and maintenance of workgroup relationships. Much of extant literature also glosses over the role that communication plays in workgroup collaboration. Using a communicative lens, this text illustrates the complex theoretical underpinnings of LMX theory, such as the importance of social interaction and relationship building and maintenance necessary to achieve organizational goals. We explore how an employee’s relationship with their leader also shapes their peer relationships and their overall standing within their workgroup. Further, the text examines the potential dark side of LMX theory, such as the tendency towards demographic and trait and state similarity. Employing a communicative perspective emphasizes the extent of position and personal power both leaders and members have in engineering the quality of the relationship they desire. Integrating and applying once disparate lines of academic literature, this book offers employees, students, and teacher-scholars pragmatic yet research-based insights into developing and maintaining successful, healthy workplace relationships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leader-member exchange (LMX) is the foremost dyadic theory in the leadership literature. Whereas contemporary leadership theories such as transformational, servant, or authentic leadership theories focus on the effects of leader behaviors on employee attitudes, motivation, and team outcomes, relational leadership theory views the dyadic relationship quality between leaders and members as the key to understanding leader effects on members, teams, and organizations. This approach views trust- and respect-based relationships as the cornerstone of leadership. LMX has grown from a new theory in the 1970s to a mature area of research in 2015. Interest in this theory has increased rapidly over the past four decades, and the pace of research in this area continues to accelerate dramatically. The Oxford Handbook of Leader-Member Exchange takes stock of the literature to examine its roots, what is currently known, what research gaps may exist, and what areas are in need of the most urgent research.

Download or read book Affect and Emotion written by Ronald H. Humphrey and published by IAP. This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Affect and Emotion includes a variety of chapters by some of the most prominent scholars in the area of emotions and leadership, as well as chapters by rising stars. These chapters chart the direction of future research in affect and leadership in four main areas. First, several of these chapters make a convincing argument that leaders use emotional labor and other forms of emotional displays to influence followers and team members. Leaders may use emotional labor to manage relational identities, or to create favorable impressions on followers and to create trust. Leaders' active emotional displays increase vision related performance and perception of transformational leadership. Second, one chapter reveals how emotions play an important role in leadership at every level, from within-person to organization-wide leadership. Leader's emotional labor plays an important role in several of these levels, with the exact method of performing emotional labor varying by level. A second chapter also examines levels of leadership, with a particular examination of the effects of leader emotional labor on close and distant leadership. Third, several of the chapters examine emotions from the authentic leadership and positive leadership perspectives, and two of these chapters focus on how psychological capital and authentic leadership skills help leaders be resilient and overcome obstacles. Fourth, two of the chapters show the role of affect and friendship ties to leadership research. One of these chapters examines the need to develop psychometrically sound measures of affect and friendship, whereas the other develops a model of how affect influences social network ties and informal leadership emergence. Taken together, these chapters illustrate four important research trends in emotions and leadership that are likely to grow in importance in the coming years.

This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effective leadership is essential for an organization‘s success; hence, the ability to identify and define effective leadership is crucial. Technical expertise, superior performance, and established experience are no longer only criterion of effective leadership. Today effective leaders are defined by inspiring and motivating others, promoting a positive work environment, understanding and managing emotions, building bonds, communications, and influence, and so forth. Emotional Intelligence (EI) has an emerging track record of being linked to leadership performance. Emotional intelligence connects a leader‘s cognitive abilities with their emotional state. The ability for leaders to recognize the impact of their own emotions on their decision making is paramount if a leader is to make sound decisions based on the best interests of the organization. A leader must be able to read emotions in his/her peers and employees in order to be as effective as possible. Stodgily originated this notion with linkages of leader personality and control over emotions to employee perception of leader effectiveness. Due to the complexity of organizational change and the role emotions play in changes such as global expansion, job eliminations, leadership changes, as well as stressors of day to day responsibilities, the EI of managers and how they manage their associates is an element that leadership needs to consider while moving their organizations forward. Organizations everywhere need now to realize the benefits of primal leadership by cultivating leaders who generate the emotional resonance that lets people flourish.

Download or read book Sharing Network Leadership written by George B. Graen and published by IAP. This book was released on 2009-03-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, we elaborate on the dynamic process of leadership sharing in creative project networks by pointing out that the boundaries and relationships of the networks change over time. As the project requirements evolve, new leaders emerge, make their contribution, and move into support positions. This leadership sharing dynamic is a necessary condition for mature LMX and member-member exchange (MMX). This insight about the sharing of leadership within networks directs us to the process of microbehavior being transformed to meso-options and being converted to macrostrategies. This sequence of micro to macro directs us to a marriage of the formal with the informal organization. At this stage we are post Simon, March, and Weick. This book is about putting authentic people back into the social creations we call productive organizations—warts and all. The design of these organizations is as old as human civilization. It helped construct ancient Greece, Egypt, and China. It was improved in the West by the Romans and in the East by the Chinese. During more recent times it was improved by the British Empire whose command and control models gradually gave way to the knowledge models of today. This book is about how we can discover the alternative processes by which fallible humans use sense making to continuously improve organizations at the macrostrategy level.

Download or read book Emotional Intelligence As a leadership Strategy to Make Leaders Great written by Dr. Whitney Stevens and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2011-12-16 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2010 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, University of Phoenix, language: English, abstract: Twenty successful leaders in the United States participated in the study to explore the extent to which emotional intelligence supports leadership potential and success. Competent managers with strong leadership skills are scarce (Cafolla, 2008). According to Goleman (2001), EQ might predict up to 90% of the variance in leadership effectiveness by uncovering strong positive effects of leadership commitment and effectiveness that support strong influences on leadership effectiveness. This modified Delphi study extended research on the emotional intelligence competencies to explore future possibilities of improving leadership success at mid- to high-level management tiers. The results of this study provide evidence to support emotional intelligence and leadership potential, validating the need for EQ as a leadership strategy. The Delphi study results recommended training to increase EQ in leaders and asserted that leaders with high levels of EQ are likely to improve overall organizational results, reduce turnover, reduce fraud and low performance, improve moral, and make organizations a better place to work.

Download or read book Emotional Intelligence Leader member Exchange and Behavioral Engagement Considering Mediation and Reciprocity Effects written by Dana L. Joseph and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leader-member exchange (LMX) is a dyadic concept that describes the content and quality of a relationship between leader and follower. In order to better understand LMX as a dyadic construct, I investigate both leader and follower contributions to the leader-member exchange relationship. The current study proposes to make four contributions to LMX research: (a) evaluating ability-based emotional intelligence (EI) as a common antecedent of follower LMX, job satisfaction, and behavioral engagement (i.e., a composite of job performance, citizenship, and withdrawal), (b) proposing LMX as a relational construct that mediates the effects of EI on job satisfaction and behavior at work, (c) evaluating the role of LMX reciprocity (i.e., the extent to which leader contributions to the LMX relationship are matched by follower LMX contributions and vice versa) in predicting follower job satisfaction and behavioral engagement, and (d) providing initial evidence for the interrelationships among both leader and follower EI, LMX perceptions, job satisfaction and behavioral engagement, within the framework of Kenny, Kashy, and Cook0́9s (2006) Actor-Partner Interdependence Model (APIM). Results from two studies suggest: (a) follower ability-based EI is a robust predictor of self-reported job satisfaction and behavioral engagement (even after controlling for cognitive ability and Big Five personality traits), (b) LMX is not an important mediator of EI effects, although it strongly and independently predicts both job satisfaction and behavioral engagement, (c) LMX reciprocity effects are inconsistent, and (d) pilot data on the APIM imply strong actor effects of LMX on behavioral engagement but more modest partner effects of LMX provisions on one0́9s partner0́9s satisfaction and behavior. Implications for incorporating both EI and LMX as independent antecedents of job satisfaction, job performance, organizational citizenship behavior, and withdrawal are discussed.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aimed to develop a model that explained the relationships between emotional intelligence (as a model of individual differences), the quality of hierarchical relationships (utilising leader-member exchange theory), and a selection of employee outcomes, of which stress was of particular interest. This model was tested using a sample of hospital staff within one national health board in Scotland. A cross sectional survey design was chosen. The sample consisted of 122 dyads from five hospitals. Each study variable was measured using previously validated measures. The key independent variables were emotional intelligence, measured using the ECI-2 (Boyatzis, Goleman, & Rhee, 1999) and leader-member exchange, using the LMX-7 (Graen & Uhl-Bien, 1995). Both were rated by supervisors and employees. The main dependent variables were stress, performance, organisational commitment, and job satisfaction. LMX was also tested for its hypothesised mediating effects on the relationship between emotional intelligence and stress, as was social support. Perceived organisational support, relationship tenure, and liking were control variables, to isolate the effects the key independent variables. Dyadic responses were matched and paired to analyse unique leader-member exchanges. Data were analysed using stepwise regresson analysis, and for the tests of mediation, 6 hierarchical regression analysis was employed. There were several main findings. Emotional intelligence (EI) was found to positively relate to the quality of leader-member exchange, suggesting that emotional intelligence may inform the development and management of hierarchical relationships. Emotional intelligence did not have a direct relationship with stress. EI also predicted performance, but not job satisfaction or organisational commitment. Percieved organisational support explained more variance in these outcomes that emotional intelligence of leader-member exchange quality. Leader-member exchange did influence the way in which stress was experienced, particularly the frequency with which employees felt job pressure. This relationship was non-linear. However, stress severity had a negative linear relationship with LMX, describing that LMX was related to lower stress intensity. LMX was positively related to performance. Finally, a hypothesised interaction between EI and LMX was not supported, suggesting that individual differences did not moderate the extent to which LMX impacted stress outcomes. It is considered that an interaction effect was not found because of the limited range in ratings of emotional intelligence and leader-member exchange. This study responds to an identified gap in the organisational behaviour literature, contributing to the exploration of how leader-member relationships are influenced by notions of individual differences such as emotional intelligence, and how outcomes at individual and organisational levels can be affected, particularly in large public sector organisations.
