14 T RUST IN L EADERSHIP AND T EAM P ERFORMANCE Trust can be defined as an expectation or belief that one can rely on another person’s actions and words and/or that the person has good intentions Trust in leadership is meaningful because the leader typically has the most formal power on the team, causing others to be vulnerable to him or her Trust in leadership is important in that it allows the team to be willing to accept the leader’s activities, goals, and decisions and work hard to achieve them

15 T RUST IN L EADERSHIP Hypothesis 1: Trust in leadership has a positive effect on team performance Hypothesis 2 : Trust in leadership mediates the relationship between past team performance and future team performance

16 L EADERSHIP, M ORAL D EVELOPMENT, AND C ITIZENSHIP B EHAVIOR The role that leaders play in inspiring or motivating the behavior of followers has received special attention Organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) is critical in studying the moral development of leadership

17 T HREE V ARIETIES OF P ARTICIPANT C ONTRIBUTION Dependable task accomplishment – concerns individual task performance Work group collaboration – focuses on interpersonal cooperation in the workplace Civic virtue – constructive participation in organizational governance Each type of contribution builds on the previous one, and conflicts are conceivable between civic virtue and the other forms of contribution

18 T HREE L EVELS OF M ORAL R EASONING Level 1 – Preconventional morality – morality is defined solely in terms of what an unquestioned authority figure declares to be right and wrong Level 2 – Conventional morality – focus of moral concern broadens from protection of personal interests to performance of social duties Level 3 – Post-conventional morality – moves from external definitions of morality to independently arrived at principled beliefs that are used creatively in the analysis and resolution of moral dilemmas
