The purpose of the quantitative study was to apply Bass' (1985) theory of transformational leadership to 372 U.S. county leaders, with an emphasis on determining whether or not their leadership behaviors are directly and/or indirectly related to the effectiveness of U.S. county governments. The major thesis was that leadership behaviors of county government leaders may have both a direct and indirect relationship to the effectiveness of county governments. In this study, transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire leadership behaviors served as the independent variables. Three follower attitudes and behaviors (i.e. follower job satisfaction, follower organizational commitment, and follower organizational citizenship behaviors) served as the intervening variables. Organizational performance was the dependant variable. The target population of leaders was the U.S. appointed county chief administrators, elected chief county administrators, and commission chairs. The target population of followers was county government employees who report directly to the leaders identified in the study. Two forms of survey were used to gather data for the proposed study. The leader survey asked participants to respond to questions regarding their own leadership behaviors and the performance of their organization. The follower survey asked respondents to respond to questions regarding their leaders' leadership behaviors. In addition, the follower survey asked respondents to rate their own levels of job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and organizational citizenship behaviors. Overall, 1,377 US county government employees (leaders and followers) served as participants in this study,representing a total of 416 county government organizations across the county. However, the results were based on a final sample of 372 leader-follower pairs. Hypotheses and research questions described in this study were tested using several statistical analyses; specifically, correlational analyses, regression analyses, and Barron and Kenny's procedure for testing significance of indirect effects. The results of the study revealed that the leadership behaviors of county government leaders were directly related to the performance of US county governments. The results also revealed that followers' levels of job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and organizational citizenship behaviors mediated the relationship between leadership behaviors and organizational performance.

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationships between leadership style, span of control and outcomes using a conceptual model linking concepts from three theories: transformational leadership theory, span of control, theory and contingency theory. The study findings provided support for the theoretical relationships between leadership style, span of control and outcomes. Results of the study supported the argument that transformational leadership matters---the higher the nurses rated their manager as having a transformational leadership style, the higher the nurses' job satisfaction and the lower the unit turnover rate. Transactional leadership style had a similar effect on nurses' job satisfaction as that of transformational leadership style although to a lesser extent. Management-by-exception leadership style, on the other hand, decreased nurses' job satisfaction. Recommendations for theory and research include: further testing of the proposed relationships in the study's theoretical model; and continued examination of how various organizational factors affect leaders, staff, work groups and organizations. The sample consisted of 717 nurses, 41 nurse managers and 51 patient care units drawn from four types of units (medical, surgical, obstetrics and day surgery) and seven hospitals. Hierarchical linear modelling and multiple regressions were used to test the study hypotheses. Recommendations for practice include designing and implementing management programs that focus on a transformational style of leadership and the development of guidelines regarding the number of staff a nurse manager can effectively supervise and lead. As well, the study findings provided support for the argument that span of control matters---the wider the span of control, the higher the unit turnover rate and the lower the unit labour stability rate. A very important and interesting finding is the significant moderating influence of span of control on the effects of leadership on nurses' job satisfaction. The interaction between span of control and leadership decreased the positive effects of transformational and transactional leadership styles on nurses' job satisfaction, and increased the negative effects of management-by-exception and laissez-faire leadership styles on nurses' job satisfaction. These findings demonstrated that no leadership style can overcome a wide span of control.
