Abstract
Abstract only
Although leadership is associated with increased autonomy and control at work, leaders also face unique job demands which contribute to their well-being. Our symposium explores the myriad job demands faced by leaders, with considerable focus on the experiences of middle managers. This symposium includes four papers that address leader well-being: focusing on the boundary-spanning behaviors, vision-translation, performance pressure, and interpersonal requirements faced by leaders. Situating our work on the experiences of middle managers, we also explore outcomes unique to the leader well-being space including protecting follower boundaries, engaging in controlling leader behaviors, and the potential for leaders to self-demote (i.e., step down from their leadership role). The symposium also invites Dr. Jennifer Nahrgang, as discussant to facilitate a conversation on the impact of leader demands.
