The Relationship Among Transformational Leadership, Supervisory Trust, Performance and Turnover Intentions

Abstract

Prior research has shown the importance of
transformational leadership. It is related to a variety of
employees’ attitudes and behavior including
supervisory trust and job performance. However,
much of this research has not examined individual
aspects of transformational leadership behavior. This
study involving a sample of 369 salespeople found that
some of the four transformational leadership behaviors
are related to supervisory trust and performance.
Theoretical and managerial implications are discussed.
