Situational Favorability and Perceived Environmental Uncertainty: An Integrative Approach.

Abstract

Modern organizational and leadership theorists are recognizing that there is no one best way to lead or organize work groups. Instead recent developments indicate that the best organizational form or leadership style is contingent upon its appropriateness to the situation or environment. The paper presents an empirical test of one possible integration of Fiedler's contingency model of leadership effectiveness and Lawrence and Lorsch's contingency organization theory.
