The Impact of Leader Style on Job Performance- Take Psychological Contract as the Moderator

Abstract
Due to personal experience, I¡¦m interested in the impact of the leading style on the
employees. When I was reading related research, I found that the leading style didn¡¦t
show positive correlation on job performance when using the relation-oriented and
job-oriented as the independent variable. Modern research support transactional
leadership and transformational leadership.
Therefore I took leading style as the independent variable, job performance as the
dependent variable and the moderating variable is psychological contract. Descriptive
statistics, reliability, factor-analysis, Pearson correlation and regression were chosen
for data analysis and hypothesis testing. The result is shown as the following:
1. Transactional leadership and transformational leadership have positive impact on
job performance.
1.1 Transactional leadership and transformational leadership have positive
correlation impact and significant impact on task performance.
1.2 Transformational leadership has positive correlation impact and significant
impact on contextual performance.
2. Psychological contract has different impact on job performance.
2.1 On task performance
2.1.1 Balanced contract has positive correlation impact and significant impact
on task performance.
2.1.2 Relational contract has positive correlation impact and no significant
impact on task performance.
2.1.3 Transactional contract has negative correlation impact and no
significant impact on task performance.
2.2 On contextual impact
2.2.1 Balanced contract has positive correlation impact and significant impact
on task performance.
2.2.2 Relational contract has positive correlation impact and no significant
impact on task performance.
2.2.3 Transactional contract has negative correlation impact and no
significant impact on task performance.
3.Psychological contract has positive correlation with leading style and job
performance.
3.1Relational contract has negative moderating effect between transformational
leadership and task performance.
3.2 Relational contract has negative moderating effect between transformational
leadership and contextual performance.
