Abstract :
Focusing on the “passion at work” specific to leaders, this study examined the relationships among leaders´ passion at work, transformational leadership and leader effectiveness using structural equation modeling. Specifically, we developed and tested the ideas that mediated effects of transformational leadership. Using a sample of managers in China, results supported the direct and indirect effects of leaders´ passion at work on leader effectiveness. Theoretical contributions, managerial implications and limitations are discussed.
