AbstractIn a time-lagged study with independent measures (N=115, paired responses), we examined the interactive effects of perceived organizational politics and overall satisfaction on job stress, interpersonal conflict, job performance, and creativity. The data were collected from a diverse sample of employees from various workplaces in Pakistan. The findings showed that perceived politics had a positive effect on job stress, while overall satisfaction had a negative effect on interpersonal conflict and a positive effect on creative performance. The results also revealed that in the face of high politics, highly satisfied individuals demonstrated higher levels of creativity and job performance. However, in this context of high politics negative effects were also observed, namely that highly satisfied individuals participated in interpersonal conflict and experienced high stress.

Considerable research has viewed Paradoxical leadership as a positive style of leadership in different contextual settings. But little is known how paradoxical behavior of a leader can be detrimental for followers. The present study proposed etic view of paradoxical leadership based on social comparison theory explaining how and why people make comparison with similar and dissimilar others, that might lead to interpersonal conflict which may trigger negative outcomes. We have proposed and tested a sequential mediation model between Paradoxical leadership and employee job stress through interpersonal conflict and job insecurity. The study is based on time lagged data (3 intervals apart by one month each) from 285 service sector employees of Pakistan. All measures used were validated before testing mediation model. Structure equation modeling has been used for model testing that provided a good support to the hypothesized model. Results justified that when employees make comparison among each other on the basis of leader’s behavior with them, and indulge in interpersonal conflicts and feel more job insecurity that ultimately proceeds towards their job stress.

This study investigated the relationships of bases of leader power (coercive, reward, legitimate, expert, and referent) and styles of handling interpersonal conflict (integrating, obliging, dominating, avoiding, and compromising) to subordinates' effectiveness. Data for this study were collected with questionnaires from the United States and Bulgaria and analyzed with hierarchical regression analysis for each country. Results indicated that in the United States referent power base of supervisors and integrating style of handling conflict of subordinates were positively associated with effectiveness. In Bulgaria, legitimate power base of supervisors was positively associated with effectiveness, but the subordinates' conflict styles were not associated with effectiveness.
