8 Path-Goal Theory Leaders Influence Satisfaction and Performance Increase Subordinate Outcomes By: Clarifying Path to Goals Reducing Roadblocks to Goals Increase JS on the Way Links to VIE Inclusion of Task Characteristics and Subordinate Characteristics 4 Types of Leaders Supportive (Boring) Directive (Unstructured) Participative (Complex) Achievement-Oriented (High nACH Employees) Mixed Results

9 Causal Model for Supportive Leader on Subordinate Effort Reduce boredom Make more tolerable Increase confidence And lower anxiety Increase intrinsic Value of work Increase effort-performance expectation Supportive leadership Increase effort *Yukl (1998). Leadership in organizations (4 th Edition). Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall.

10 Causal Model for Directive Leadership on Subordinate Effort Reduce role ambiguity Increase incentives Strengthen reward contingencies Increase effort-perform expectation Increase valence for task success Increase perform-reward expectation Directive leadership Increased effort *Yukl (1998). Leadership in organizations (4th Edition). Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall.

11 Situational Leadership Hersey & Blanchard (1977) Leadership Depends of “Maturity” of Followers Job Maturity (KSAs) Psychological Maturity (Self-Efficacy) Minimal to Moderate Maturity = Supportive Moderate to Maximum Maturity = Directive Developmental Interventions Simple vs. Contingency Contracting

12 Hersey & Blanchard’s Model Supportive Directive M1M2M3M4 Follower Maturity Little Much Amount of Behavior *Yukl (1998). Leadership in organizations (4th Edition). Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall.

15 Fiedler’s Contingency Theory Fiedler (1964, 1967) Situation Moderates Leader Effectiveness and Subordinate Traits Based on “Least Preferred Coworker” (LPC) Indicates Leader’s Motive Hierarchy (nAFF) High LPC is Considerate Low LPC is Directive Based on Situational Favorability Leader-Member Relations, Position Power, Task Structure
