Greetings colleagues,
I have the unique privilege of inviting you all to a thought-provoking symposium featuring some of our community's finest scholars:
Theoretical and Empirical Advances on Destructive Leadership (Session 10938)
📆Monday, July 28 🕣8:30-10:00AM
Bella Center Hall B–B6-m2
Destructive leadership-when leaders engage in volitional behavior that harms or intends to harm others-remains one of the most pressing and costly challenges in organizational life. As such, scholarly attention to this topic within the organizational sciences has grown at an exponential level.
This symposium builds on that momentum, offering a dynamic set of theoretical and empirical papers that examine the antecedents, forms, and consequences of destructive leadership. Drawing on a wide array of theories across Organizational Behavior (OB), Conflict Management (CM), and Social Issues in Management (SIM), these papers shed light on both how destructive leadership unfolds and how it might be mitigated.
