Transforming leader reflexivity into follower performance: The vital role of vertical knowledge exchange and participative decision-making
Although the influence of leader cognition on leadership effectiveness has been well established through intrapersonal mechanisms, limited attention has been given to whether and how such cognition translates into enhanced follower productivity. We integrate the cognitive resource theory and the theory of knowledge exchange to propose that leader cognitive reflexivity enhances follower performance through vertical knowledge exchange. This positive relationship is more likely to occur when leaders exhibit high participative decision-making. Utilizing a time-lagged research design, data obtained from 653 leader-member dyads support our proposed model. Our study has significant implications for research in the realm of leader cognition, and offers insights into the leadership practices that foster vertical knowledge exchange, ultimately impacting follower performance.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Business Research aims to publish research that is rigorous, relevant, and potentially impactful. It examines a wide variety of business decision contexts, processes, and activities, developing insights that are meaningful for theory, practice, and/or society at large. The research is intended to generate meaningful debates in academia and practice, that are thought provoking and have the potential to make a difference to conceptual thinking and/or practice. The Journal is published for a broad range of stakeholders, including scholars, researchers, executives, and policy makers. It aids the application of its research to practical situations and theoretical findings to the reality of the business world as well as to society. The Journal is abstracted and indexed in several databases, including Social Sciences Citation Index, ANBAR, Current Contents, Management Contents, Management Literature in Brief, PsycINFO, Information Service, RePEc, Academic Journal Guide, ABI/Inform, INSPEC, etc.
