本研究在探讨权变奖励和例外管理交易型领导与员工创新行为的关系的基础上,考察了在影响员工创新方面,变革型领导对交易型领导的增量效果,并分别探讨了员工创新自我效能感在变革型领导与员工创新、权变奖励交易型领导与员工创新之间的调节作用。本研究选取某大型企业的员工及其直接领导为研究对象,共调查了349对上下级配对数据,分布在86个团队。多层线性分析(HLM)的结果显示:第一,交易型领导的两个维度权变奖励和例外管理对员工创新具有相反的预测作用。第二,在控制了权变奖励和例外管理交易型领导后,变革型领导对员工创新仍具有正向预测作用。第三,员工的创新自我效能感调节变革型领导和员工创新、以及权变奖励领导和员工创新之间的关系。
The study uses a sample of 349 leader-follower dyads from a large enterprise in mainland China. We find that contingent-re- ward leadership and management-by-exception transactional leadership have contrary influence on employee creativity; (2)after control- ling for the influence of transactional contingent-reward and management-by-exception leadership, transformational leader behavior is still positively related to employee creativity; and (3)creative self-efficiency, a self-concept, moderates the relationship both between trans- formational leadership and creativity, and between contingent-reward leadership and creativity. We discuss implications of these results for research and practice.
