Ethical leader behavior and leader effectiveness: the role of prototypicality and trust (2009, background): “Many published studies on prototypicality thus test relationships in this manner (e.g., Lipponen et al., 2005; Pierro et al., 2005; Tyler & De Cremer, 2005).”
Leadership predictors of innovation and task performance: Subordinates' self‐esteem and self‐presentation as moderators (2009, background): “(e.g. Bunce & West, 1995; Epitropaki & Martin, 2005; Pierce et al., 1993; Pierro et al., 2005; Podsakoff et al., 1996; Scott & Bruce, 1994), although longitudinal research is certainly desirable to demonstrate causality and patterns of leadership-subordinate interactions over time.”
Charismatic leadership and organizational outcomes: The mediating role of employees' work‐group identification (2007, background): “Pierro, Cicero, Bonaiuto, Van Knippenberg, & Kruglanski, 2005 ) of five items derived by Mael and Ashforth ( 1992 ; see Van Knippenberg & Van Shie, 2000 ; eg, “When someone criticises my work team, it feels like a personal insult”; “I'm very interested in what others think about my work team”).”
An Identity Perspective on Ethical Leadership to Explain Organizational Citizenship Behavior: The Interplay of Follower Moral Identity and Leader Group Prototypicality (2019, result): “In line with these theoretical propositions, recent studies have shown that group prototypical leaders are indeed more effective at guiding and motivating followers than non-group prototypical leaders (Pierro et al. 2005; van Knippenberg 2011).”
How Relational and Organizational Identification Converge: Processes and Conditions (2008, background): “Prototypicality is discerned through behaviors that align with the organization’s identity, including its goals, values, beliefs, and norms (Pierro et al. 2005).”
The social identity theory of leadership: Theoretical origins, research findings, and conceptual developments (2012, background): “Pierro et al. (2005; N 1⁄4 242) focused on dispositional differences in need for closure, and found that leader prototypicality was more strongly related to a series of indicators of perceived leadership effectiveness for followers higher in need for closure (see Figure 5). Pierro et al. (2007) qual”
Advancing the social identity theory of leadership: A meta-analytic review of leader group prototypicality (2020, background): “…that some relationships for which theory and evidence exist cannot be studied due to the limited number of effect sizes available for meta-analytic integration (e.g., as with research identifying motives that render followers more sensitive to leader group prototypicality; Pierro et al., 2005).”
License to fail? How leader group prototypicality moderates the effects of leader performance on perceptions of leadership effectiveness (2008, background): “…influence their followers, are perceived as more effective leaders (Hains et al., 1997; Hogg, Hains, & Mason, 1998; Platow & van Knippenberg, 2001; Pierro et al., 2005; Platow, van Knippenberg, Haslam, van Knippenberg, & Spears, 2006), are trustedmore and seen as more charismatic (Platow et al.,…”
