Abstract
This paper describes two dimensions of organizational performance termed intraand interdepartmental stress. Specifically, the authors examine some relations between the perceptions of the leadership role held by hospital supervisors and the amount of stress within their departments and with other units of the organization. Significant relations were found, and, in general, the original hypotheses were confirmed. However, some situational differences point up the role of several organizational variables in effective supervisory-subordinate relationships. Harold Oaklander is assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. Edwin A. Fleishman is director of 'the American Institute for Research, Washington Offices, as well as its Institute for Research on Organizational Behavior.'
