Abstract

This article conducts a theoretical analysis and empirical study on the complex relations among five elements (leadership, followership, leader-member exchange, leadership situation, and leadership performance) based on a two-stage least square method (TSLS). Results show that in China leadership and followership are positively correlated with performance; LMX (Leader–Member eXchange) is negatively correlated with performance; LMX show significant positive correlations with leadership and followership; circle and face are positive correlated with leadership and followership, but favor is negatively correlated with leadership, followership, and LMX. Moreover, a SLRFP (Situation, Leadership, Relationship, Followership, Performance) five-force relational leadership model was constructed, revealing the core contents of relational leadership. These elements mainly include relational structure, dynamics and process, and provide a theoretical framework for establishing a unified theory of leadership based on the integration of traditional theories. The present study has high academic and favorable reference value.
