The Relationship Between Visioning Behaviours of Leaders and Follower Burnout

Abstract

This paper investigates whether the perceived visioning behaviours of leaders influence the burnout process experienced by their followers. A structural equation model was used to examine these relationships using a sample of 480 senior managers from an Australian law‐enforcement organization. Differences in the relationships between the two factors of visioning behaviour and aspects of burnout were identified. Inspirational motivation (concept‐based) reduced the central factor of burnout, namely emotional exhaustion (psychological strain). Inspirational motivation (image‐based) had a positive effect on personal accomplishment (self) and reduced depersonalization. The paper discusses the implications for leaders and followers and identifies directions for future research.
