| Summary: | A study involving twenty-six construction firms, which practice project management in Texas, examined whether thirteen leadership behaviors could be associated with effective project managers. The data indicated that supervisors and subordinates share very close perceptions' of the comparative effectiveness of the project managers who were rated. Results indicated that "Problem Solving", "Monitoring", and "Networking" were the leadership behaviors which could be strongly associated with effective project managers. Mid-range correlations were also obtained for "Supporting", "Consulting & Delegating", "Recognizing & Rewarding", "Planning", and "Clarifying". Conflicting correlations were obtained for "Harmonizing" and "Informing". Low correlations were obtained for "Motivating" and "Developing". |
