The Coaching Academic | theory to practice

In this episode, I discuss a study that explores how employees’ proactive personality can influence empowering leadership behaviours in their leaders. In this episode I summarise the key findings which includes how leader-employee trust influences this relationship between proactive personality and empowering leadership and translate how you can utilise the findings from this study into practice. The study I am discussing in this episode is Han, S., Harold, C. M., & Cheong, M. (2019). Examining why employee proactive personality influences empowering leadership: The roles of cognition‐and affect‐based trust. Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology, 92(2), 352-383.
