Personal Attributes as Predictors of Superiors' and Subordinates' Perceptions of Military Academy Leadership
研究了军校领导者的个人属性(如特质、思维风格)如何预测他人对其变革型和交易型领导力的评价,发现预测因素因评价者(上级或下级)的不同而有所差异。
Relationships between military academy leaders' personal attributes (e.g., traits, thinking styles) and others' ratings of transformational and transactional leadership were assessed in this study. Regression analyses indicated that personal attributes significantly predicted leadership ratings. Consistent with implicit leadership theories, however, the relevant predictors differed as a function of the positions of the individuals who rated leadership (i.e., superiors vs. subordinates of focal leaders). For example, leader intelligence and athletic experience were related to subordinate ratings of leadership while the leader's degree of conformity was associated with superiors' ratings of leadership. Implications for organizations and for understanding the leadership rating process are discussed.
