The International Work Addiction Scale (Iwas): A screening tool for clinical and organizational applications validated in 85 cultures from six continents
The value of leaders we trust and leaders who make us stronger: Exploring the distinct contributions of different components of identity leadership to group member outcomes
This study investigates the critical role of social identity in leadership, specifically examining identity leadership (IL) and the unique contributions of its four subdimensions: identity prototypicality, identity advancement, identity entrepreneurship, and identity impresarioship. To date, research has largely focused on the global construct of identity leadership and shown that in organizational contexts, it is a predictor of a range of outcom…
Bureaucrats in Campaigns: Elections Increase Dysfunctional Behaviors Among Civil Servants
Elections are essential for democracy, but the turbulence and uncertainty they bring can disrupt the functioning of public organizations. This study investigates how elections may trigger dysfunctional interpersonal dynamics and behaviors among civil servants. We specifically examine the relationship between elections and both increased interpersonal conflicts within public organizations and heightened counterproductive behaviors among civil serv…
Leaders affect business creation: Evidence from mayoral elections
Positive minds, inclusive minds: PsyCap’s potential in overcoming resistance to DEI initiatives in organizations
Political leaders' identity leadership and civic citizenship behavior: The mediating role of trust in fellow citizens and the moderating role of economic inequality
Identity leadership captures leaders efforts to create and promote a sense of shared group membership (i.e., a sense of “we” and of “us”) among followers. The present research report tests this claim by drawing on data from 26 countries that are part of the Global Identity Leadership Development (GILD) project to examine the relationship between political leaders' identity leadership and civic citizenship behavior (N = 6787). It also examines the…
Political attacks and the undermining of the bureaucracy: The impact on civil servants' well‐being
Countries are facing the deterioration of democratic institutions under a process named democratic backsliding. In this context, political attacks on public organizations become more frequent and intense. While previous studies have examined how civil servants counteract and resist political attacks, their ultimate impact on civil servants' well‐being remains underexplored. To shed light on this phenomenon, we conducted an exploratory sequential …
Innovation across cultures: Connecting leadership, identification, and creative behavior in organizations
Innovation is considered essential for today's organizations to survive and thrive. Researchers have also stressed the importance of leadership as a driver of followers' innovative work behavior (FIB). Yet, despite a large amount of research, three areas remain understudied: (a) The relative importance of different forms of leadership for FIB; (b) the mechanisms through which leadership impacts FIB; and (c) the degree to which relationships betwe…
(Mis)Led by an Outsider: Abusive Supervision, Disengagement, and Silence in Politicized Bureaucracies
Employing loyal external appointees has been identified as a key strategy used by incumbents to gain control over the state bureaucracy. This phenomenon is known as politicization and has been associated with democratic backsliding. Frequently, career civil servants perceive these appointees as illegitimate outsiders, leaders whose main objective is to ensure political compliance rather than advance the organization’s mission. In this study, we e…
Identity Leadership, Employee Burnout and the Mediating Role of Team Identification: Evidence from the Global Identity Leadership Development Project
Do leaders who build a sense of shared social identity in their teams thereby protect them from the adverse effects of workplace stress? This is a question that the present paper explores by testing the hypothesis that identity leadership contributes to stronger team identification among employees and, through this, is associated with reduced burnout. We tested this model with unique datasets from the Global Identity Leadership Development (GILD)…
Global Mindset: A Construct Clarification and Framework
Global mindset has been proposed to be the only unique characteristic of effective global leadership. This article proposes a framework of global mindset that combines cultural intelligence and global business orientation. In addition, relationships are proposed between global mindset and individual outcomes such as trust, leader—member exchange relationship quality, and organizational commitment. Variables such as complexity of global role and l…
Relations between Locus of Control and Sources of Work Motivation amongst Government Workers
This field study tested the relationship between locus of control and sources of work motivation for a sample of 382 government employees, selected as part of a leadership development initiative. Their mean age was 46 yr., 53% were women, and 42% had earned bachelor's degrees. Analysis showed a significant positive relationship between follower's locus of control and self-concept external motivation (r = .11), self-concept internal work motivatio…
