Where is EQ found in the brain

laissez-faire (Iowa studies)

- gave complete freedom to the group... the leader essentially provided no leadership - provided the greatest number of aggressive acts from the group

what were the results of the path goal theory?

- leader directiveness good for unclear tasks and bad for clear tasks - supportive leadership had positive effect on satisfaction for associates who work on stressful, frustrating, or disatissfying tasks - in non repetitive ego-involving tasks, employees were more satisfied under participative leaders than under non participative leaders - for unclear, nonreptitive tasks ppl wanted acheivement-oriented leaders

the 3 dimensions on which situational favorableness is described by

- leader-member relationship: the most critical variable in determining the situation's favorableness - degree of task-structure: 2nd most important - leader's position power: 3rd most important (obtained thru formal authority)

leader-member exchange (LMX) theory

- leaders treat individual followers differently - leaders and their associates develop a dyadic (2-person) relationship that effect the behavior of both of them - associates who are committed / expend a lot of effort for the unit are rewarded with more of the leader's positional resources (confidence, concern, info)

group approach

- leadership is viewed more in terms of the leader's behavior and how such behavior affects and is affected by the group of followers - one of the only times the followers are considered when examining what constitutes leadership

Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ)

- measures each of the components of the full range of leadership - get personal score then give it to the people that work for you

in-group / out-group (LMX theory)

- over time the leader will develop an "in-group" and an "out-group" of associates and treat them accordingly - research shows the in-group associates report fewer difficulties in dealing with the leader and perceive the leader to be more responsive to their needs than out group associates do - leaders spend more time "leading" members of the in group and tend to "supervise" those in the out group - members of the in group assume greater job responsibility, contribute more to their units, and are rated as higher performers than those reporting a low-quality relationship - leader has to figure out a way to balance the relationship with the in-group so they don't take the leader over

Ohio State Leadership Studies

- passed out leadership behavior questionnaire (LBDQ) to many different people (mostly people involved in WW2) - recognized that too often leadership = good leadership - determined 2 factors of leadership are consideration and initiating structure (separate and distinct from each other) - studies show only how leaders carry out their leadership function

how is social skill the culmination of the other dimensions of EQ?

- people tend to be very effective at managing relationships when they can control their own emotions and empathize with the feelings of others - motivated people are optimistic which leads to having a "glow" cast upon conversations which makes it easier to be well liked -

what are the 2 situational factors involved in the path-goal theory

- personal characteristics of associates: leader behavior will be acceptable to subordinates to the extent that subordinates see such behavior as either an immediate source of satisfaction or as instrumental to future satisfaction - environmental pressures and demands facing associates: leader behavior will be motivational to the extent that (1) it makes satisfaction of subordinate needs contingent on performance and (2) it complements the environment of subordinates by providing the coaching, guidance, and rewards which are necessary for effective performance and may otherwise be lacking in subordinates and in their environment

early Michigan leadership studies

- picked 12 high-low productivity pairs of groups at Prudential Insurance Company and conducted non-directive interviews - supervisors of high producing sections were significantly more likely to be general rather than close in their supervisory styles and be employee centered (have a genuine concern for their people) - supervisors of low producing sections has essentially the opposite characteristics and techniques: they were found to be close, production-centered supervisors - employee satisfaction was NOT directly related to productivity, the type of supervision was key to the performance

zeitgeist

- situational approach where the leader is viewed as a product of the times and the situation - says the person with the particular qualities or traits that a situation requires will emerge as the leader - goes along with Fielder's classic contingency theory (suggests that leadership styles must fit or match the situation in order to be effective)

when is a situation favorable according to fiedler's contingency model of leadership effectiveness

- situations are favorable if all 3 dimensions are high - if the leader is generally accepted and respected by followers (high first dimension), if the task is very structures and everything is "spelled out" (high 2nd dimension), and if a great deal of authority and power are formally attributed to the leader's position (high 3rd dimension) the situation is favorable

nature vs nurture in leadership

- studies found 1/3 comes from genetics but the majority comes from development (affected by both nature and nurture)

followers impact on leaders

- studies seem to indicate that followers effect leaders ad their behaviors as much as leaders and their behaviors effect followers - managers shouldn't ignore followership because its an important and necessary skill to have in the workplace - followers must be okay will following the leader

authoritarian leadership (Iowa studies)

- very directive, allowed no participation, gave individual attention when praising/criticizing - researchers found that boys reacted either very aggressively or apathetically - deemed to be reactions to the frustrations caused - apathetic groups exhibited outbursts of aggression when the autocratic leader left the room or when a transition was made to a freer-leadership atmosphere

why was fiedler's contingency theory important?

- was the first highly visible leadership theory to present hte contingency approach which gave widespread attention to the important role that the situation or context plays in leadership - emphasized the importance of the interaction between the situyation and the leader's characteristics in determining leader effectivenes - stimulated a great deal of research, including tests of its predictions and attempts to improve the model which inspired the formulkation of alternative contingency theories
