Abstract. Based on the model of ambidextrous leadership, we investigated impact flexible adaptation leader behavior, that is, opening and closing behaviors, innovative performance in a laboratory experiment. Leader behaviors were manipulated with confederates attending to one participant showing either no sequential, or application behaviors. We hypothesized leads better innovation performance....

The present research investigated the relationship between leader self-definition processes and leader self-serving behaviors. We hypothesized that self-definition as a leader interacts with social reference information (descriptive and injunctive) in predicting leader self-serving actions. Six studies (i.e., two laboratory experiments, two scenario experiments, and two crosssectional surveys) ...

Leader opening and closing behaviors are assumed to foster high levels of employee exploration and exploitation behaviors, hence motivating employee innovative performance. Applying the ambidexterity theory of leadership for innovation, results revealed that leader opening and closing behaviors positively predicted employee exploration and exploitation behaviors, respectively, above and beyond ...

In this paper, real-time implementation of multirobot convoying behavior utilizing neuro-fuzzy control is presented. With only nine rules, the follower convoys the leader closely and smoothly by varying its speed and changing its direction. When the leader stops, the follower stops very close to the specified safe distance (within an inch). The follower backs up quickly when the leader moves ba...

this paper aims to investigate a new and intricate behavior of immediate follower during the lane change of leader vehicle. accordingly, the mentioned situation is a transient state in car following behavior during which the follower vehicle considerably deviates from conventional car following models for a limited time, which is a complex state including lateral and longitudinal movement simul...
