新兴领导方式：悖论式领导

Emerging Style of Leadership: Paradoxical Leadership

摘要: 面对日益激烈的竞争环境，矛盾和悖论已经成为组织发展的“新常态”，传统的领导方式已经无法很好地应对错综复杂的环境带来的种种挑战。在这种背景下，基于中国传统阴阳哲学的悖论式领导应运而生。悖论式领导指领导者采用看似竞争却密切关联的行为，旨在同时满足组织和员工的矛盾性需求。这种领导方式能够同时发挥矛盾双方的作用，以便组织更好解决经营管理中出现的矛盾问题。自悖论式领导被提出以来，受到了越来越多学者和管理者的关注。本文将对悖论式领导的起源、概念、研究现状等内容进行梳理，构建出悖论式领导的现有研究框架并指明未来研究方向。为不同文化情境下悖论式领导的有效性研究以及在管理实践中的运用提供参考。

Abstract: In the face of increasingly fierce competition environment, contradiction and paradox have become the “new normal” of organizational development. The traditional leadership style can’t cope well with the challenges brought by the complicated environment. Under this background, the paradoxical leadership based on the traditional Chinese philosophy of Yin and Yang emerges at the historic moment. Paradoxical leadership refers to the use of seemingly competitive but closely related behaviors by leaders aimed at simultaneously satisfying the conflicting needs of the organization and its employees. This leadership style can play the role of both sides of the conflict at the same time, so that the organization can better solve the conflict problems in the operation and management. Since paradoxical leadership was put forward, more and more scholars and managers have paid attention to it. This paper will sort out the origin, concept, measurement, research status and other contents of paradoxical leadership, construct the existing research framework of paradoxical leadership and point out the future research direction. It provides a reference for the research on the effectiveness of paradoxical leadership in different cultural contexts and its application in management practice.
