“…When followers are influenced by a humble leader who is engaged in a team reflection process, they offer a source of competitive advantages for the sustainable development of the team or organization ( Schippers et al, 2015 ). As an important factor to indicate team sustainability, team innovation, which addresses the challenges and shocks that teams encounter ( Hirst et al, 2009 ), can be prompted by the processes of team reflexivity ( Schippers et al, 2015 ; Wang et al, 2020 ). Indeed, Carter and West (1998) emphasize that task reflexivity is positively related to participation in decision-making, flexible strategies and objectives, and positive relational energy among followers, thus promoting a team’s effectiveness and innovation.…”

The current study proposes a moderated mediation model to explain the relationship between humble leadership and team innovation. Our hypothesis integrates social information processing (SIP) theory with the existing literature on humble leadership. As a result, we theorize that when a humble individual leads a team, the team members are more likely to reconsider strategies, review events with self-awareness, share diverse information, and adapt to new ideas, which in turn promotes innovative team activities. Moreover, consistent with the research that emphasizes the inclusion of team culture in exploring leader–innovation relationships, we investigate the moderating role of a team’s expertise diversity in the above positive, indirect relationship. We test our model by using both archival and survey data collected from 135 teams within 18 medium-to-large internet technology firms in China. The findings largely support our theoretical assertions, suggesting that humble leadership has important implications for team processes and innovation.

“…The results conveyed that the information-seeking attitude of the leader positively relates to team innovation and team performance via team reflexivity. Further, the outcomes of cooperative interdependence moderates the link between leader information seeking and team reflexivity, such that the relationship is stronger when cooperative outcomes interdependence high and weaker when it is low (Wang et al, 2020). Moreover, Kuenzi et al (2019) drew their research on SIPT and social learning theory to conceptualize that employees exhibit less UB (behavior is not rewarded) because of ethical climate (social information).…”

“…From this graphical representation, values have been extracted in Table 3, representing path coefficients with critical ratio (CR = Estimate/SE) and p-values. Suppose an estimate is represented by a negative value, the exogenous and endogenous estimates have a negative direction between them, and if the estimate has no sign, then by default, it represents the positive sign, which means exogenous and endogenous estimates have a positive direction between them (Caputo et al, 2019;Chang et al, 2020;Zhang et al, 2020).…”

Humor of the Leader: A Source of Creativity of Employees Through Psychological Empowerment or Unethical Behavior Through Perceived Power? The Role of Self-Deprecating Behavior

et al. 2021

Although we use humor in our daily communication, there still needs to cognize its effects on the attitudes and behavior of the employees. Based on benign violation theory (BVT), the study proposes that leader's humor (LH) conveys social information about counter norms. The BVT has been amalgamated with social information processing theory (SIPT) to develop hypotheses assuming the consequences of LH on the attitude and behavior of the employees. This study hypothesizes that even though LH is linked positively with employee creativity via leader-member exchange and psychological empowerment in sequence (blessing path), it may also send information to the employees about the acceptability of norm violation. This perception ultimately leads to power perception and, causes unethical behavior in the series (curse path). Moreover, this study also postulates that leader's self-deprecating humor (LSDH) moderates these indirect effects by enhancing the blessing and reducing the curse, which emerged from LH. Quantitative data of 630 software engineers from software houses based in Pakistan provided support to test the hypotheses. The results demonstrate that LH is a double-edge sword that enhances blessing (creativity) as well as curse (employee unethical behavior), whereas LSDH augments the blessing and throttles back the curse. Theoretical and managerial implications have also been discussed.

“…These known factors include leadership behavior, boundary management, social interaction, and conflict resolution (Savelsbergh et al, 2010). This group of factors translates into information sharing (Mesmer-Magnus & DeChurch, 2009), task and relationship conflict (Kanadlı et al, 2020), team cohesion (Muthiane et al, 2015), leadership (Morgeson et al, 2010), collaboration knowledge and absorptive capacity (Zhang et al, 2011), team mental model (Lim & Klein, 2006), team composition (Zarzu et al, n.d.), trust in the leader (Wang et al, 2020), team diversity (Yeager & Nafukho, 2012), role diversity (Batenburg et al, 2013), cognitive ability (Salas et al, 2008), and relationship orientation (Saemundsson et al, 2022).…”
