“…Image-based rhetoric is easy to comprehend, which enhances the ability of a follower to elaborate on the vision (cf. Emrich et al 1999, Naidoo andLord 2008). For an overview of rhetoric devices, see Den Hartog and Verburg (1997), Willner (1984), and Burke (1950).…”

“…Empirical research on vision communication has focused on a variety of communication aspects, for instance communication style (Awamleh andGardner 1999, Kirkpatrick andLocke 1996), specific vision themes (Baum et al 1998, Den Hartog and Verburg 1997, Awamleh and Gardner 1999, certain vision attributes (Baum et al 1998, Bligh et al 2004, rhetoric devices (Awamleh and Gardner 1999, Den Hartog and Verburg 1997), image-based rhetoric (Emrich et al 2001, Naidoo andLord 2008), metaphors (Mio et al 2005), and a focus on followers (Den Hartog and Verburg 1997, Sashkin 1988, Stam et al 2010a, Tichy and Devanna 1986. The importance of these variables is evident in the effects they have on leadership evaluations (Emrich et al 2001, Kirkpatrick and Locke 1996, Mio et al 2005, attitudes (Awamleh and Gardner 1999), and performance (Hunt et al 1999, Kirkpatrick and Locke 1996, Stam et al 2010a, as well as venture growth (Baum et al 1998), international involvement (Den Hartog and Verburg 1997), and media responses (Bligh et al 2004).…”

We propose a model of vision communication that emphasizes the mediating role of follower collective possible selves—that is, self-conception in terms of what the collective (team, organization) which one is a member of may become in the future that can be held by individuals but can also be shared by multiple individuals. Our model is the first to provide an integrative account of how vision communication may stimulate the pursuit of the vision by individuals and collectives, and it complements and extends prior research in three important ways. First, in contrast to an earlier emphasis on the role of individual perceptions of the current self, our model puts perceptions of the future self at the forefront. It captures how vision communication can invite social sharedness of these perceptions, thus doing justice to visions’ nature as images of a future for the collective. Second, in contrast to earlier work on vision communication focusing on general indicators of leadership effectiveness, our model puts what is arguably the most important outcome for vision communication center stage: vision pursuit, the followers’ actions aimed at making the vision reality. We argue that the creation of collective possible selves by followers is crucial for vision communication because collective possible selves explain how vision communication relates to vision pursuit. Third, our model also addresses aspects of vision communication that may facilitate the processes through which visions become internalized as possible selves, and it captures the processes through which such possible selves become shared among members of a collective and lead to collective vision pursuit.

“…This is important to building leadership efficacy as we know that leaders can have emotional contagion effects where leaders communicate positive emotions to followers (Bono and Ilies, 2006;Naidoo and Lord, 2008) further increasing the attractiveness of the leader. We suggest that this process can become bidirectional, and self-sustaining because followers also have influence on the affect and self-concepts of leaders (Shamir et al,993).…”

“…A recent study of Naidoo and Lord (2008; for similar findings, see Emrich, Brower, Feldman, & Garland, 2001) yielded evidence for the importance of imagery for visionary leadership. Participants listened to presidential speeches that were rewritten to create low and high imagery versions and then rated the speeches on various leadership measures.…”

DedicationTo my mom and my dad, who fostered my curiosity about life, and who taught me to turn adversity into challenge. STUDY 3-EFFECTS OF AFFILIATION AND POWER VISIONS ON ALPHA-AMYLASE, COOPERATIVE BEHAVIOR IN PRISONER'S DILEMMAS, AND SELF-REPORTED AFFECT 58 Method 61 Results 67 Discussion 796 General discussion 81 Limitations and future directions 85 Conclusion 887 changes in achievement imagery (i.e., hope for success imagery), affective arousal (i.e., tense arousal, energetic arousal, and hedonic tone), and performance (i.e., reaction time and error rate) on a mental concentration task. As predicted, the achievement vision increased hope for success imagery and tense arousal, and reduced reaction times and error rates.Furthermore, the strength of the person's pre-vision hope for success moderated the influence of achievement vision on energetic arousal and reaction time. Study 3 focused on the domains of affiliation and power, thereby contrasting two motive domains that are known to have opposite effects on the following motivation indicators: changes in salivary alphaamylase, affective arousal, and cooperation behavior in a prisoner's dilemma.As predicted, the affiliation vision promoted hedonic tone, especially in participants high in the need for affiliation, whereas the power vision promoted tense arousal and interacted with pre-vision need for power to increase energetic arousal. Moreover, the power vision increased the alphaamylase level and exploitative behavior, particularly in participants high in the need for power. In contrast, the affiliation vision increased cooperation behavior, especially in predominantly affiliation-motivated participants. In sum, the present research provides the first empirical evidence that visions are motivationally effective by arousing implicit motives.
