Document Summary
Leaderships: types of leaders: pearce & sims (2002) Aversive: rely on punishment and intimation in order to get results from subordinates. Transactional: focus on leadership as an exchange with subordinate (you do these tasks and in turn you will receive these rewards, also try to make sure those rewards are equitable) motivates by clarifying performance-reward relationship. Roots in equity theory and social exchange theory. Transformational: focus on leader"s charisma, inspirational visual for their workers. Empowering: focus on leading others to lead themselves , model good leadership behaviour so people can take that roll on themselves, team-work participative decision making/goal setting, encourage self reward. Some argue that leadership style/ having of a leader doesn"t have much effect on organizational outcome (ie. productivity/pro t). E. g. , effect of leaders on unexpected positive outcomes is romanticized (meindl & colleagues, 1985, 1987) Thompson & pozner (2007) - evidence that leadership *style* matters.
