communications and actions
that provide direction
Developing a human network

6. The Nature of Leadership
Power and Leadership
– Power is the ability to affect the behavior of others.
• Legitimate power is granted through the organizational hierarchy.
• Reward power is the power to give or withhold rewards.
• Coercive power is the capability to force compliance by means of psychological,
or physical threat.
• Referent power is the personal power that accrues to someone based on identification,
imitation, loyalty, or charisma.
• Expert power is derived from the possession of information or expertise.
7. The Search for Leadership Traits
Traits and Approach to Leadership
–Assumed that a basic set of personal traits that differentiated leaders from
nonleaders could be used to identify leaders and predict who would become
leaders.
–The trait approach was unsuccessful in establishing empirical relationships
between traits and persons regarded as leaders.
8. Leadership Behaviors
Michigan Studies (Rensis Likert)
– Identified two forms of leader behavior
• Job-centered behavior—managers who pay close attention to subordinates’ work, explain
procedures, and are keenly interested in performance.
• Employee-centered behavior—managers who focus on the development of cohesive work
groups and employee satisfaction.
– The two forms of leader behaviors were considered to be at opposite ends of the same
continuum.
9. Leadership Behaviors
Ohio State Studies
– Did not interpret leader behavior as being one-dimensional as did the Michigan State
studies.
– Identified two basic leadership styles that can be exhibited simultaneously:
• Initiating-structure behavior—the leader clearly defines the leader-subordinate role
expectations, formalizes communications, and sets the working agenda.
• Consideration behavior—the leader shows concern for subordinates and attempts to establish
a friendly and supportive climate.

Adequate organization performance is
possible through balancing the necessity
to get out work with maintaining morale
of people at a satisfactory level.
Impoverished Management
Exertion of minimum effort

The Leadership Grid® is a method of
evaluating leadership styles. The Grid® is
used to train managers so that they are
simultaneously more concerned for people
and for production (9,9 style on the Grid®).
11. Situational Approaches to Leadership
Situational Models of Leader Behavior
–Assume that:
• Appropriate leader behavior varies from one situation to another.
• Key situational factors that are interacting to determine
appropriate leader behavior can be identified.
12. Situational Approaches to Leadership
Least-Preferred Coworker Theory (Fiedler)
–Contingency variables determining situational favorableness:
• Leader-member relations—the nature of the relationship between the leader and
the work group.
• Task structure—the degree to which the group’s task is defined.
• Position Power—the power vested in the leader’s position.

14. Situational Approaches to Leadership
Path-Goal Theory (Evans and House)
– The primary functions of a leader is to make valued or desired rewards available in the
workplace and to clarify for the subordinate the kinds of behavior that will lead to goal
accomplishment or rewards.
– Leader Behaviors:
• Directive leader behavior—letting subordinates know what is expected of them, giving
guidance and direction, and scheduling work.
• Supportive leader behavior—being friendly and approachable, having concern for
welfare, and treating subordinates as equals.
15. Situational Approaches to Leadership
Path-Goal Theory (Evans and House)
–Leader Behaviors:
• Participative leader behavior—consulting with subordinates, soliciting suggestions, and
allowing participation in decision making.
• Achievement-oriented leader behavior—setting challenging goals, expecting
subordinates to perform at high levels, encouraging and showing confidence in
subordinates.

17. Situational Approaches to Leadership
Decision Tree Approach (Vroom)
– Attempts to prescribe a leadership style appropriate to a given situation.
– Basic Premises
• The degree to which subordinates should be encouraged to participate in decision making depends on
the characteristics of the situation.
• No one decision-making process
is best for all situations.
– After evaluating the different problem attributes, a leader can choose a decision path on one of
two decision trees that determines the decision style and specifies the amount of employee
participation.
• Decision significance—the degree to which the decision will have an impact on the organization.
Subordinates are involved when decision significance is high.
• Decision Timeliness—the degree of time pressure for making a decision in a timely basis; may preclude
involving subordinates.
18. Situational Approaches to Leadership
Decision Tree Approach (Vroom)
–Decision-Making Styles
• Decide—manager makes decision alone and then announces or “sells” it to the
group.
• Consult (individually)—manager presents program to group members
individually, obtains their suggestions, then makes the decision.
• Consult (group)—manager presents problem to group at a meeting, gets their
suggestions, then makes the decision.
21. Situational Approaches to Leadership
The Leader-Member Exchange (LMX) Approach (Graen
and Dansereau)
–Stresses the importance of variable relationships between supervisors
and each of their subordinates.
–Leaders form unique independent relationships (“vertical dyads”) with
each subordinate in which the subordinate becomes a member of
the leader’s out-group or in-group.
23. Related Perspectives on Leadership

organizational goals
Routineness

people.

of excitement, personal confidence,
and patterns of success.

by empathizing with them, and

obliges that person to return the favor at a future date.
• Coercion—using force to get one’s way.

one’s image in the eyes of others.
29. Political Behavior in Organizations
• Managing Political Behavior

assume that they are.
–Reduce the likelihood of subordinates engaging in political behavior by
providing them with autonomy, responsibility, challenge, and feedback.
–Avoid using power to avoid charges of political motivation.
–Get disagreements and conflicts out in the open so that subordinates have
less opportunity to engage in political behavior.
–Avoid covert behaviors that give the impression of political intent even if
none exists.
