Conceptualizing Leadership Behaviors and Its Relationship With Competitive Advantage

Abstract

This study aimed at outlining a conceptual model to measure relationship with leadership behaviors and competitive advantage. To conceptualize the model we tried to answer does leadership behaviors relate to competitive advantage. We structurally and systematically reviewed works of literature to identify what leadership behaviors link to competitive advantage. We found three types of leadership behaviors: task, people and change-oriented ones relate to achieving competitive advantage. We also hypothesized our conceptual model that may be tested empirically in organisational settings.
