Abstract:
Prior research has shown the importance of transformational leadership. It is related to a variety of employees’ attitudes and behavior including supervisory trust and job performance. However, much of this research has not examined individual aspects of transformational leadership behavior. This study involving a sample of 369 salespeople found that some of the four transformational leadership behaviors are related to supervisory trust and performance. Theoretical and managerial implications are discussed.
Keywords: transformational leadership, supervisory trust, job performance
