Abstract

Leading virtually is already a reality. Virtual teams are connected through technologies that are separated by waters. A good positive leadership style is required for leading in the virtual world. Previous researches suggest that transformational leadership (TFL) style fits best in any type of a team. Luthans et al. coined the term psychological capital (PsyCap) that is comprised of hope, efficacy, resiliency and optimism. However, PsyCap concept has not been studied in VTs. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to examine the relationship between PsyCap, leadership styles and leader outcome (LO) in virtual and face to face (FTF) teams. The study utilises the responses from 387 working professionals that belonged to virtual, FTF and hybrid teams. Out of 387, 179 working professionals belonged to virtual and FTF teams. The correlation analysis revealed positive relationships between PsyCap, TFL style and LO in virtual and FTF teams.

虚拟团队与面对面团队中心理资本、领导风格与领导成果的关系

虚拟领导已经成为现实。虚拟团队通过隔海相望的技术连接在一起。在虚拟世界中领导需要一种良好的积极的领导风格。以往的研究表明，变革型领导风格最适合任何类型的团队。Luthans等人创造了心理资本(PsyCap)这个词，它由希望、效力、弹性和乐观组成。然而，心理cap概念尚未在VTs中得到研究。因此，本文的目的是研究虚拟和面对面(FTF)团队中心理cap、领导风格和领导结果(LO)之间的关系。这项研究利用了387名在职专业人士的回答，他们分别属于虚拟团队、FTF团队和混合型团队。在387名工作人员中，179名工作人员属于虚拟和FTF团队。相关分析显示PsyCap、TFL风格和虚拟团队和FTF团队的LO之间存在正相关关系。
