The Effect of Leadership Style on Performance Improvement on a Manufacturing Task

The Journal of Business, 1999, vol. 72, issue 3, 407-22

Abstract: A three-factor, repeated-measures experiment tests the effect of leadership style (charismatic, structuring, and considerate) on performance improvement on a manufacturing task over four trials. Findings from a repeated-measures multivariate analysis of variance indicates that individuals exposed to considerate leadership have superior initial performance but that this difference fades over time. Further analysis indicates that self-efficacy fully mediates the relationship between leadership style and performance. Copyright 1999 by University of Chicago Press.
