Human groups are unusual among primates in that our leaders are often democratically selected. Faces affect hiring decisions and could influence voting behavior. Here, we show that facial appearance has important effects on choice of leader. We show that differences in facial shape alone between candidates can predict who wins or loses in an election (Study 1) and that changing context from war...

Drawing from a relational approach, the authors conceptualize the quality of leader-member exchange as a mediator and procedural justice climate as a contextual moderator for understanding the role of proactive personality in job satisfaction and organizational citizenship behavior. Data from a sample of 200 Chinese employees within 54 work groups were used to examine the hypothesized models. R...

The purpose of this research is to develop a direct and concise perceived leader integrity instrument that is posed from a positive perspective. The integrity construct in this study is developed from the tradition of moral philosophy and virtue ethics. The integrity construct in this study incorporates two aspects of integrity found in the literature, namely value-behavior congruence and a req...

BACKGROUND Effective team leadership in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is well recognized as a crucial factor influencing performance. Generally, leadership training focuses on task requirements for leading as well as non-leading team members. We provided crisis resource management (CRM) training only for designated team leaders of advanced life support (ALS) trained teams. This study asse...

This paper is aimed to detect the malicious behavior of the nodes by first selecting some set of leader nodes. The leader nodes are those set of nodes in a network which monitor the whole network of nodes. The set of leader nodes is referred as the dominating set. A set is dominating if all the nodes of the network are either in the set or neighbors of nodes in the set. The efficiency of a comm...

Socio-cognitive approaches to leadership study remain the frontrunner in research; this study presents a model, which shows the quality of coworker exchange and organizational hope significantly influence workplace empowerment. The mode clearly presents the power of reciprocal behavior from leader influence tactic and statistical significance of coworker exchange quality, which responds as an i...

This article considers the robust cooperative output regulation for a network of parabolic PDE systems. The solution to this problem is obtained by extending internal model principle from finite infinite dimensions. For time-invariant digraph describing communication topology, two-step backstepping approach presented systematically design state feedback regulators. allows solve both leader–foll...
