Mediating Effects of Creative Leadership Role Identity on the Relationship between Issue Leadership and Leadership Effectiveness

The purpose of the present study was to empirically investigate the mediating effects of subordinates creative role identity on the relationships between three dimensions of issue leadership and leadership effectiveness: issue creating, audience involving, and issue implementing. In order to test the mediating effects, a survey was conducted with 172 respondents who work for private companies, banks, public organizations, and other organizations. Results of the analyses revealed that each of the three dimensions of issue leadership had significant and strong impact on leadership effectiveness and that, as hypothesized, the effects of issue creating and audience involving on leadership effectiveness were partially mediated by subordinates creative role identity, However, the issue implementing dimension was fully mediated by subordinates creative role identity in influencing leadership effectiveness. Study results provide several implications, that is, each of the three dimensions of issue leadership should follow a different path of mediation in influencing leadership effectiveness. Moreover, the mediating effects need to be tested with other dependent variables such as performance, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and organizational citizenship behavior. In addition leader behavior may engender a cascading effect on subordinates identity formation.
