Managers' and employees' experiences of how managers' wellbeing impacts their leadership behaviours in Swedish small businesses
CONCLUSION: This study shows that the wellbeing of managers in small businesses has perceptible consequences for their leadership behaviours. The study also shows that sustained leadership behaviours may coexist with temporary variations of these behaviours on a constructive-destructive continuum depending on the leader's wellbeing. Overall, the findings contribute to a more nuanced and dynamic understanding of how the interaction between managers' wellbeing and their behaviours unfolds in the particular context of small companies.PMID:36591688 | DOI:10.3233/WOR-220159 (Source: Work)
