Weber and the neo-charismatic leadership paradigm
基于韦伯的魅力型权威理论，通过385名管理者的实验研究，发现工作保障和问责制调节了变革型领导者和自恋型领导者的冒险意图，但两者在所有情境下都倾向于使用魅力修辞。
Transformational and narcissist leaders are both typified as charismatic, yet little is known about how contextual factors moderate their workplace behavior. Drawing on Weber's classic theory of charismatic authority, this experimental study (n = 385 managers) used scenarios to investigate how job security and accountability moderated transformational leadership and narcissism of leaders in the prediction of intended charismatic rhetoric and risk-taking. In support of Weber's theory, transformational leaders intended to take risks in low job security and low accountability. In contrast, narcissist leaders intended to take risks in high job security and high accountability. Both transformational and narcissist leaders intended to engage in charismatic rhetoric across all contexts. It is concluded that intentions to engage in risk-taking in different contexts will differentiate the transformational leader from the narcissist leader. Selection implications are discussed.
