Relationships are central to understanding what occurs in the workplace. The leader-member exchange (LMX) approach dominates the literature on relational dynamics of leadership. Research supports LMX as a mediator between leadership and outcomes, and this reflects the centrality of relationships at work. However, LMX is not a leadership theory. We critically review the literature on LMX, with discussion of the requirements for “good” theory and how LMX falls short. We acknowledge some attempts through the years to develop theory to guide LMX research. The concept of “exchange” was not original to LMX. Our review of social exchange theory reveals that, contrary to the common approach, LMX is not consonant with exchange theory. Other attempts at theory offer partial explanations that do not capture leader-member relational dynamics. Some promising approaches to studying leader-member relationships have emerged in recent years. We offer suggestions for future theory and research and advocate for a return to role theory and the development of emotional sociocognitive approaches.

领导的关系动力:问题与前景

关系是理解工作场所发生的事情的核心。领导-成员交换 (LMX) 方法主导了有关领导关系动态的文献。研究支持 LMX 作为领导力和成果之间的中介,这反映了工作关系的中心地位。然而,LMX 并不是一种领导理论。我们批判性地回顾了有关 LMX 的文献,讨论了“好”理论的要求以及 LMX 如何不足。我们承认这些年来一些试图发展理论来指导 LMX 研究的尝试。“交换”的概念并非 LMX 独创。我们对社会交换理论的回顾表明,与通常的方法相反,LMX 与交换理论不一致。其他的理论尝试提供了部分解释,没有捕捉到领导者-成员的关系动态。近年来出现了一些有前景的研究领导-成员关系的方法。我们为未来的理论和研究提供建议,并倡导回归角色理论和发展情感社会认知方法。
