“…Consistent with the results of Chen’s, Sangperm’s, Lieber’s, and Teoh’s studies that positive traits of self-expectation leadership were positively associated with organizational commitment and HHB ( Chen, 2011 ; Lieber et al, 2014 ; Sangperm, 2017 ; Teoh et al, 2022 ), our study demonstrated the same results in the field of HAI prevention and control. Research from the field of psychology explained the possible reason for the results that medical staff with high positive traits of self-expectation leadership were more active and committed in the organization and displayed creativity and initiative in their work behavior ( DiLiello and Houghton, 2006 ).…”

Hand hygiene behavior (HHB) in healthcare settings remains suboptimal globally. Self-expectation leadership and organizational commitment are emphasized as important factors influencing HHB. However, there are no studies to support any relationship between self-expectation leadership and organizational commitment to HHB. This study will fill the gap by applying implicit leadership theory (ILT) to support the further promote HHB among medical staff. A cross-sectional study of 23,426 medical staff was conducted in all second-level and third-level hospitals in Hubei province, China. Based on ILT, an online self-administered and anonymous questionnaire was designed for measuring the medical staff’s self-expectation leadership, organizational commitment, and HHB based on Offermann’s 8 dimensions scale, Chang’s 3 dimensions scale, and the specification of hand hygiene for healthcare workers, respectively, in which self-expectation leadership was divided into positive traits and negative traits parts. The structural equation model was used to examine the direct, indirect, and mediating effects of the variables. Positive traits of self-expectation leadership had a positive effect on organizational commitment (β = 0.617, p < 0.001) and HHB (β = 0.180, p < 0.001). Negative traits of self-expectation leadership had a negative effect on organizational commitment (β = –0.032, p < 0.001), while a positive effect on HHB (β = 0.048, p < 0.001). The organizational commitment had a positive effect on HHB (β = 0.419, p < 0.001). The mediating effect of the organizational commitment showed positively between positive traits of self-expectation leadership and HHB (β = 0.259, p < 0.001), while negatively between negative traits of self-expectation leadership and HHB (β = –0.013, p < 0.001). Positive traits of self-expectation leadership are important predictors of promoting organizational commitment and HHB, while negative traits of self-expectation leadership have a limited impact on organizational commitment and HHB in the field of healthcare-associated infection prevention and control. These findings suggest the need to focus on positive traits of self-expectation leadership; although negative traits of self-expectation leadership can also promote HHB to a lesser degree among medical staff, it will reduce their organizational commitment.

“…Qingjin et al (2010) also found that a loose, harmonious, free, open and inclusive scientific research environment is conducive to improving the output of innovative achievements. Teoh et al (2022) point out that idealized influence and inspirational motivation, have a significant positive influence on employee performance.…”

Scientific research in colleges and universities is of great significance to national innovation. Based on the evolutionary game theory, this paper constructs a theoretical model of the state, universities, and researchers. This paper also conducts numerical simulation on the model. The results reveal that when the scientific researchers’ success rate reaches a certain threshold, more and more scientific researchers will choose to invest in scientific research. Then, universities and the state will hold a long-term incentive attitude toward scientific research and scientific innovation. The study further found that the greater the success rate of researchers, the faster universities and the state will actively encourage scientific research.

“…Leaders and employees are two categories of "people" in a company. As a result, research on leaders and employees has always been a theoretical topic of great interest in the field of management as it is related to an organization's success or failure (Teoh et al, 2022;Wang, Lin, Osman, Farooq, & Raju, 2021). Employee achievement in the FMCG sector is typically connected with sales performance and employees in this area experience greater marketing influence than those in other industries.…”

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of various leadership styles on employee performance in the Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industry in China. The unexpected global spread of the coronavirus pandemic and its complicated issues have created a substantial amount of uncertainty in consumer demand worldwide which has motivated this research and highlighted the crucial role that the FMCG industry's marketing relationship plays in determining enterprise profit. There is a growing concern among enterprise managers, academics and policymakers about employee performance and its overarching impact on the organization. The study is underpinned by social exchange theory and employs a cross-sectional design. An online survey was conducted with 384 employees from the FMCG industry to measure the impact of three independent variables: authentic leadership style, servant leadership style and ethical leadership style. The findings reveal that authentic, servant and ethical leadership all significantly affect employee performance in the Chinese FMCG industry. Among these, ethical leadership is found to have the extreme effect. The implications of this study are of practical relevance to FMCG companies. FMCG companies can potentially navigate through the uncertainty in global consumer demand more effectively by reconfiguring their leadership styles to enhance employee performance. The study provides insights that can be used by FMCG companies to increase employee performance which is directly linked to enterprise profit.
