Abstract Text | This research investigates mechanisms and boundary conditions for the performance effects of transformational leadership (TFL) climate at the organizational level of analysis. In a study with 158 organizations, a total of 18,094 respondents provided data on their organizations' TFL climate, positive affective tone, and internal trust, and on employees' collective job performance within the respective organizations. We received empirical support for the hypothesized conceptual scheme, yielding a pattern of moderated mediation: Organizations' TFL climate indirectly enhances employees' collective task performance by fostering positive affective tone under conditions of high internal trust, but not under conditions of low internal trust. Furthermore, organizations' TFL climate indirectly enhances employees' collective contextual performance by fostering positive affective tone independent of the level of internal trust. These findings contribute to a better understanding of TFL climate at the organizational level. They also corroborate the inherently affective nature of TFL prior research has emphasized and demonstrate that the performance consequences of such leadership may hinge on specific contextual factors. |
