摘要: 政治技能是一种有效的社交能力，指在工作中理解他人并为实现个人或组织目标去有效影响他人的能力。领导者政治技能对于员工和组织的影响及其作用机制是有待探索的重要问题。本文从组织政治视角出发，探讨了领导者政治技能对员工绩效的影响及其内在机制，提出领导者政治技能可以有效提高下属绩效，并且员工对领导的信任和领导–部属交换关系可正向中介领导者政治技能对下属绩效的积极作用。为证明上述假设，在两个时间点收集了来自某大型跨国医药企业179名员工和其领导的配对数据，分析结果印证了上述假设。这一结论对于领导特质的研究和中国管理实践均有重要意义。
Abstract: Political skill is an important social skill and it refers to the ability of understanding others at work and influencing others towards the aimed direction. This study adopts the view of organisation politics and focuses on the influence of leader’s political skill towards employees and the underlying mechanism. The sample of this study is from a large international medicine company 179 leader-subordinate dyads collected at two time points. Results showed that leaders’ political skill can improve subordinates’ performance significantly and subordinate’s trust in leader and their leader-member exchange (LMX) mediates the positive relationship between leader’s political skill and subordinate’s performance. This study enriches the research in the field of political research and has practical implications for Chinese management.
