Abstract

The scholarship of both organizational change and leadership is extensive. However, there have been few attempts to systematically integrate these fields of research in terms of theory or empirical examination. As a result, our understanding of the role and impact of leadership on organizational change outcomes is incomplete. This symposium is designed to generate a dialogue about what constitutes effective change leadership. It is comprised of four papers (two empirical and two theoretical), which explore factors that influence the effectiveness of change leadership in terms of strategic choices, behaviors, and the demands and resources related to the change leader role. Authors of the two most comprehensive reviews of change leadership scholarship – Jeffrey Ford and Shaul Oreg – will introduce and conclude the symposium. In introductory comments, Dr. Ford will comment on the state of change leadership research to date and remaining questions. Shaul Oreg will offer discussant comments that integrate the insights from the papers and propose directions for further research.
