How do leaders promote cooperation? The effects of charisma and procedural fairness.
通过情景实验、横截面调查和实验室实验,发现领导者的魅力和程序公平都能促进合作,但两者同时存在时效果反而减弱,且这种交互作用通过群体归属感的中介实现。
The present research examined the effect of leaders' procedural fairness and perceived charisma on an important organizational process: cooperation. Both charisma and procedural fairness were predicted to have a positive effect on cooperation, and procedural fairness and charisma were predicted to interact such that their effects are stronger alone than in conjunction. Results from a scenario experiment, a cross-sectional survey, and a laboratory experiment supported these predictions. Results from the laboratory study also showed that the interactive effect of leader charisma and procedural fairness on cooperation was mediated by their interactive effect on the sense of group belongingness. It is concluded that leader charisma and procedural fairness may engender cooperation because they appeal to relational concerns.
