| Abstract: | The interaction of supervising officer leadership (downward influence) and the influencing behaviour of subordinate police officers (upward influence) was investigated. Fifty-three subordinate police officers returned one of four randomly distributed scenarios depicting either a male-female transformational or male-female transactional leader (supervising officer) within a law enforcement setting. The subordinate officers then completed a test indicating the extent to which they would use rational, soft and hard approaches to influence their supervising officer as illustrated in the scenario. Contrary to prediction, transformational leadership was more closely related to subordinate rational influencing behaviour than the other. |
