From empathic leader to empathic leadership practice: An extension to relational leadership theory
Does empathy merely take place in leaders’ minds? How does it help us better understand and practice leadership? In the past, entitative relational leadership studies have mainly drawn on a mind-based understanding of empathy and focused on the association between individual empathy traits and leader emergence and effectiveness. Such an approach overlooks leadership practice of empathy as a constructive process. By integrating emerging research f…
Transforming the Present Moment through Conversation and Narrative: Toward a Hermeneutic Leadership Theory
Despite its recent development, research in the discursive leadership paradigm remains fragmentary and needs integrative theories that systematically account for the communicative constitution of leadership. This paper addresses this need by presenting a hermeneutic leadership theory. By extending Ricoeur’s philosophical explication of time, the theory uniquely anchors itself in the present moment of leadership communication. By integrating Ricoe…
Articulating circumstance, identity and practice: Toward a discursive framework of organizational changing
The literature on organizational change abounds with models that map the trajectory of change with ordered stages or episodes. However, limited progress has been made in understanding the dynamic process of changing or becoming from one stage or episode to another. To enhance our knowledge of changing, this study intends to offer a discursive framework grounded in a process-oriented perspective of organization. The framework highlights key discur…
Structural Pluralism and the Community Context: How and When Does the Environment Matter
Several long-standing theories intersect in discussing the impact of community characteristics and of the mass media. The structural pluralism model popularized by Tichenor and his colleagues says that social structure influences how mass media operate in communities because they respond to how power is distributed in the social system, whereas the linear model says that the increasing size of a community's population leads to more social differe…
The Impact of Third Places on Community Quality of Life
Omega is a Four-Letter Word”: Toward a Tension-Centered Model of Resistance to Information and Communication Technologies
The adoption of enterprise-wide information and communication technologies (ICTs) has become a growing trend in a wide range of industries. Resistance has been identified as one of the most common reasons for unsuccessful implementations. Assuming technologies as fixed objects, many existing theories tend to reduce resistance to psychological mechanisms or structural misalignment. The purpose of this study is to retheorize resistance to ICTs by i…
