  • Title: How leaders cultivate social capital and nurture employee vigor: implications for job performance.
    Author: Carmeli A, Ben-Hador B, Waldman DA, Rupp DE.
    Journal: J Appl Psychol; 2009 Nov; 94(6):1553-61. PubMed ID: 19916662.
    Abstract:
    This study examined how leader relational behaviors (i.e., relational leadership) cultivate bonding social capital among organizational members and the way bonding social capital augments feelings of vigor at work. In addition, the authors examined how vigor enhances employee job performance. Using a sample of 209 participants in Israeli community centers, the results of structural equation modeling indicate a 2-stage mediation model in which leader relational behaviors are positively related to bonding social capital; this, in turn, results in feelings of vigor, which are positively associated with manager ratings of employee job performance.
