“…As a result, employees find out that their goal are in line with organizational goals and therefore dedicate themselves to achievement of these goals. This also ensures management effectiveness and organizational success in achieving predefined goals (Smith et al 1977).…”

“…It is obvious that a proper leadership style enhances employees' job satisfaction and the perception that their goals are parallel with organizational goals, which in turn stimulate them to achieve goals of organization and manager. Finally, this guarantees management effectiveness and organizational success in reaching their intended goals (Smith et al 1977). Bushra (2011) believes that successful management of employees is largely dependent on the quality of leadership in organizations (Bushra et al 2011).…”

Purpose -The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between transformational leadership and internal marketing which is underscored by the centrality of human resources in satisfying employee's needs and how internal marketing, as a moderator and mediator, can facilitate the effects of transformational leadership on social capital and employee loyalty.Design/methodology/approach -This study develops a model and a number of propositions, based on preceding literature on transformational leadership and internal marketing on social capital and employee loyalty Findings -The model proposes that transformational leadership can play a vital role in codification of human resources variables such as internal marketing, which is founded upon the principle of paying greater attention to employees. Moreover, despite the research gap on the relationship between social capital and employee loyalty, it can be concluded that social capital can increase the level of employee loyalty to organization. Research limitations/implications -The proposed model has a number of academic and managerial contributions. This study contributes the knowledge by examining the relationship between transformational leadership and internal marketing. Managerially, this study helps managers to emphasize the centrality of human resources in satisfying employees and increase their loyalty towards the company. In addition, guarantees management effectiveness and organizational success in reaching their intended goals.Originality/value -Despite the growing acknowledgment the importance of transformational leadership as a process in which leaders and followers upgrade each other's level of ethic and motivation. However, there are few studies on the role and importance of transformational leadership on developing and reinforcing the internal marketing.

“…A series of 12 singleitem measures of behaviors (Smith, Smoll, & Barnett, 1995;Smith, Smoll, & Curtis, 1979;Smoll, Smith, Barnett, & Everett, 1993) assessed reactive and spontaneous behaviors corresponding to the Coaching Behavior Assessment System (CBAS; Smith, Smoll, & Hunt, 1977): reinforcement, nonreinforcement, encouragement after mistakes, mistake-contingent technical instruction, punishment, punitive technical instruction, ignoring mistakes, keeping control, general technical instruction, general encouragement, organization, and general communication. Participants rated the frequency with which their coach demonstrated the behavior described in each item on a scale ranging from 1 (never) to 7 (almost always).…”

OBJECTIVES-Autonomy support is a component of the motivational climate in youth sport that may promote youth's internalization of behaviors and attitudes. This study examined the psychometric properties of the Autonomy-Supportive Coaching Questionnaire (ASCQ), a measure of two forms of autonomy-supportive coaching perceived by young athletes. DESIGN-The study design was non-experimental.METHODS-Over a six-week season, youth (N = 165) participating in a recreational summer swim league completed measures of perceived coaching behavior (weeks 1 and 5), autonomy-supportive coaching (week 5) and psychological need satisfaction (weeks 1 and 6). RESULTS-Responsesto the ASCQ could be reduced to two correlated factors representing an "interest in athlete's input" and "praise for autonomous behavior." These factors exhibited slightly different relations with perceived coaching behaviors and positively predicted coaching-associated contrasts in the satisfaction of all three basic psychological needs.

“…This core conceptualization of the action-context relationship is also apparent in the Mediational Model of Adult Leadership Behaviours in Sport (Smoll & Smith, 1984), developed shortly after the MDML (see Figure 3). The Mediational model is primarily grounded in observations of concrete coaching practice, utilizing the twelve operationally defined categories embedded in the Coach Behavior Assessment System (CBAS) devised by Smith, Smoll and Hunt (1977). While this provides for a richer "taxonomy" of sport-specific situational factors than may have been apparent in the MDML, the basic valence of the theoretical apparatus remains the same.…”
