Psychology followership leadership implicit followership theories implicit leadership theories IFTs ILTs leadership potential social categorization Although supervisors are increasingly being asked to rate the leadership potential of their subordinates for use in various talent management practices, it is unclear what these ratings are based upon. Based on social categorization theory and leadership identity construction theory, it was proposed that supervisors will tend to use implicit followership theories (IFTs) in addition to implicit leadership theories (ILTs) to evaluate the leadership potential of their subordinates. Additionally, it was proposed that subordinates’ traits influence their perceived match to IFTs and ILTs. Results demonstrated that the degree to which supervisors perceive a match to IFTs predictsratings of leadership potential, even when accounting for matches to ILTs and liking. However, the direction of this relationship was opposite of that anticipated. Additionally, both proactive personality and Machiavellianism were found to influence the social categorization process. These results may help inform future theory regarding IFTs andhigh potential practices. 2013-05-13 English text University of Akron / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1365547287 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1365547287 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
