新生代员工参与需求对领导风格偏好的影响

Influence of Need for Employee Involvement on New Generation Employees' Leadership Preference

通过问卷调查对594位新生代员工进行分析,并从下属中心视角探讨新生代员工参与需求对其领导风格偏好的影响机制。研究发现,新生代员工参与需求对指令式和授权式领导风格偏好产生显著消极影响,对参与式和教练式领导风格偏好产生显著积极影响,主管信任和员工参与感知在新生代员工参与需求与指令式和授权式领导风格偏好的关系中起显著调节作用。

By surveying 594 new-generation employees, this research demonstrates that, for employees born in the 1980s and 1990s, their need for involvement positively relates to the preference for participative and coaching leadership styles, and negatively relates to the preference for directive and delegating leadership styles, which is moderated by perception of employee involvement and trust in leader. These findings suggest that companies should pay more attention to the compatibility between the leader and his/her followers and encourage a leader to adjust his/her style accordingly.
