Understanding transversal leadership in public organizations: conceptualization and development of a measurement scale
针对公共部门中跨组织边界协作的领导力概念缺失,本文提出横向领导力并开发了有效、可靠的测量量表,帮助研究者评估领导者如何引导员工参与跨组织合作。
Public value creation often relies on collective efforts across organizational jurisdictions with leadership playing a central role. However, concepts and measures for understanding whether and how public leaders can influence their own employees to engage in behaviours that support work across organizational boundaries are lacking. As response, the authors propose transversal leadership, which refers to a leader’s attempts to direct, align, and commit staff towards collective efforts with actors outside their own managerial jurisdiction, and develop a useful, valid, and reliable measurement scale that discriminates from existing leadership measures and correlates with expected outcomes.
