Journal of Business & Leadership: Research, Practice, and Teaching (2005-2012)

This study used meta-analysis to investigate the relationship between leadership style and job performance in sales settings. Specifically, the research investigates whether transformational or transactional leadership is more appropriate in creating a high performing sales environment. Results indicate that transformational leadership is positively and significantly related to salesperson’s job performance, whereas the relationship between transactional leadership and job performance is mixed. Also, results suggest that the relationship between transformational leadership and job performance is stronger when subjective, rather than objective, measures of job performance are used.

Intellectual Property Asset Management: A New Dimension For Business Leadership, Francine Segars, Karen Moustafa

Journal of Business & Leadership: Research, Practice, and Teaching (2005-2012)

As we move rapidly toward a knowledge society, intellectual property (used interchangeably hereinafter with "IP") is becoming the primary differentiating factor between companies (Drucker, 199 2). In the knowledge society, the means for production becomes intellectual property which is held within each individual employee within a company, along with a well thought out strategy for managing a company's IP. Leadership is required to ensure that this IP intellectual property is fully utilized by the company through an effective strategy. Leadership has been defined as the ability of an individual to use influence to produce an outcome (Bennis & Nanus, 1985; …

An Exploratory Investigation Into The Moderating Effect Of Emotional Intelligence On The Emotional Labor And Burnout Relationship, Wesley Scroggins, Suzanne Ray, Elizabeth Rozell

Journal of Business & Leadership: Research, Practice, and Teaching (2005-2012)

Emotional intelligence has received increased attention in recent years. Much of this attention is due to research that supports a direct relationship between emotional intelligence and positive organizational behaviors. However, little research has investigated the moderating effects of emotional intelligence. This paper addresses this gap in the literature by investigating the moderating effect of emotional intelligence tilt the emotional labor and burnout relationship. Results support significant direct relationships of both emotional labor and emotional intelligence on burnout. The self-awareness dimension of emotional intelligence also moderated the emotional labor and burnout relationship. Implications f or research and practice are discussed.

Leader Development And Emotional Competence: Authentic Leadership, Self-Awareness, And Personal Integrity, Nathan Keller, James Quick, Marilyn Macik-Frey, David Gray, David Mack, Cary Cooper

Journal of Business & Leadership: Research, Practice, and Teaching (2005-2012)

Can leadership be taught? (Doh, 2003) The dramatic growth of leadership academies, institutes, and programs from political science to business and psychology to reserve officer training corps for U.S. military services makes this a compelling question. We say "yes" and then: How can it be taught? And how are leaders developed? Ours is a developmental theory for teaching leaders and suggests that emotional competence is at the heart of developing authentic leaders with personal integrity.

Evolution Of The Cash Flow Statement Through 2003, Rita Jones, Keith Atkinson Jan 2005

Evolution Of The Cash Flow Statement Through 2003, Rita Jones, Keith Atkinson

Journal of Business & Leadership: Research, Practice, and Teaching (2005-2012)

Cash flows of a business are the most fundamental events upon which accounting measurements are based and upon which investors and creditors are assumed to base their decisions. Then why did the FASB wait until November 1987 to issue a standard "requiring" businesses to provide a Statement of Cash Flows, and what subsequent changes have been made to the standard? Possibilities of the delay include: (1) fear of regressing from accrual accounting emphasis to a cash emphasis: (2) the area of cash flows was not perceived to be "urgent " enough to warrant the attention of the standard-setting bodies forced …

Measure For Measure: Modeling Entrepreneurial Self-Efficacy Onto Instrumental Tasks Within The New Venture Creation Process, Jill Kickul, Robert S. D'Intino Jan 2005

Measure For Measure: Modeling Entrepreneurial Self-Efficacy Onto Instrumental Tasks Within The New Venture Creation Process, Jill Kickul, Robert S. D'Intino

New England Journal of Entrepreneurship

We examine the various components of entrepreneurial self-efficacy within the entrepreneurship literature from a measurement perspective. Two published entrepreneurial self-efficacy instruments are tested and compared. Additionally, we study how self-efficacy relates with many of the tasks and roles identified within the entrepreneurial new venture life-cycle. Our study suggests relationships between self-efficacy, perceived skills, and abilities to manage a new venture, and entrepreneurial intentions to start a new venture. We discuss relationships between entrepreneurship research and university teaching and make specific suggestions on how further work on improving measurement in entrepreneurship will benefit both research and teaching effectiveness.

Creating A New Program In Entrepreneurship Education: A Case Study In Colombia, Kirk C. Heriot, Noel D. Campbell

New England Journal of Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship has been widely recognized as having greatly influenced the United States. Its influence has especially been documented over the past 20 years. Paralleling our societal interest in entrepreneurship has been increasing interest in entrepreneurship education. While our interest in entrepreneurship education has grown considerably over the past two decades, this field of study continues to have critics both within and outside of schools and colleges of business (Kuratko 2004). In spite of these criticisms, some researchers suggest that the United States is still far ahead of other regions of the world in terms of entrepreneurial education (Solomon et al. …
