“…Leaders can also encourage employees to practice self-awareness and self-leadership skills themselves (e.g., training). Self-leadership is an extension of self-awareness because it enables one to utilize experience-based knowledge with different cognitive and behavioral strategies (Manz & Neck 2004) without forgetting the role of emotions (Manz et al 2016). By merging and fostering the shared experience domain, leaders and employees play important roles because they are part of the process of exchange (Hooper & Martin 2008).…”

“…In these processes, leaders and employees must have a certain level of self-awareness, which is a key characteristic of authentic leaders and employees (Gardner et al 2005;Rahimnia & Sharifirad 2015). Expressing emotions is also based on self-leadership and its emotional, cognitive, and behavioral strategies (Manz et al 2016;Manz & Neck 2004). Through self-awareness and self-leadership strategies, leaders and employees know which emotions they express and whether these emotions are beneficial or harmful to themselves or to others.…”

A phenomenological psychology approach in organizational studies has been somewhat overlooked, particularly in research on leadership and employee well-being. This study presents a new way of examining leadership and employee well-being. A novel experience qualities approach was utilized with the aim of revealing the authentic structure of human experiences, particularly experience qualities such as emotions, knowledge, and assumptions. This study investigated the role of leadership in creating employee well-being experiences in a professional organization. The data were collected from 23 in-depth interviews conducted with company leaders and employees in Finland and then analyzed using the phenomenological method. The results indicated affirmative similarities and differences (experience domains) in experience qualities of well-being between leaders and employees. By identifying different experience qualities of well-being, leaders can promote their own and employees’ well-being more precisely and effectively. Practical implications for leaders are discussed.

“…Studies have shown that individuals who receive support from the environment can make changes in their immediate world, behaving in a desirable way, through behaviorfocused strategies (Manz et al, 2016). Many of these changes are simple, but can make a real difference in one's actions.…”

“…Many of these changes are simple, but can make a real difference in one's actions. Therefore, it is coherent to assume that as students manage to develop behavior-focused self-leadership strategies, they will possibly increase their self-awareness and motivation necessary to perform tasks that, although important for the success of an enterprise (in a broad sense), can be considered unpleasant or intrinsically not motivating (Manz et al, 2016). Given these findings, the hypothesis (H2) that support from the environment is positively associated with behaviorfocused strategies (BFS) is postulated.…”

“…Behavior-focused self-leadership strategies identify and expand the quality and quantity of desirable behaviors, while identifying and decreasing the incidence and/ or severity of undesirable behaviors, in order to build, maintain and/or improve individual performance as well as performance levels (Manz et al, 2016). Studies have shown that a natural focus on rewards or on activity aspects is more motivating, as it encourages individuals to develop tasks with more excellence, even those that are less desirable (Rebetez et al, 2016).…”

Academic Procrastination: Relationships with Support from the Environment and Self-Leadership

Procrastination is the behavior related to voluntary delays at the beginning or end of tasks and in decision making. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mediational effect of self-leadership strategies on the relationship between academic procrastination and support from the environment. A cross-sectional correlational study was carried out with the participation of 1,436 students. Three instruments were used: Learning Support Scale, Academic Procrastination Scale - Short Form and Revised Self-Leadership Questionnaire. The findings confirmed the hypotheses by demonstrating that the more students use self-leadership strategies, the less they procrastinate and the lesser the influence of support from the environment. The full mediation model has been confirmed. The study stands out for its understanding of procrastination and the influence of support from the environment and self-leadership. It is suggested that further longitudinal studies be conducted, assessing differences in these behaviors between groups of students, programs, levels of higher education or shifts.

Prior research has examined self‐leadership as a proactive self‐regulatory approach for the management of stress and anxiety in college students. However, little is known about the possible negative effects of self‐regulatory approaches such as self‐leadership. Using the transactional model of stress and coping and the interaction model of stress, anxiety, and coping as theoretical frameworks, this study investigates a parallel multiple mediation model of the relationship between self‐leadership and state anxiety as mediated by adaptive coping behaviours and maladaptive coping behaviours in a sample of 143 undergraduate students. Results suggest that self‐leadership, paradoxically, is positively related to both adaptive coping behaviours and maladaptive coping behaviours in students. Moreover, the magnitude and significance of the indirect effects of self‐leadership on state anxiety through maladaptive coping behaviours are greater than the indirect effects of self‐leadership through adaptive coping behaviours. This study is therefore the first to identify possible detrimental effects of self‐leadership on individual outcomes, that is, destructive self‐leadership. Implications, both theoretical and practical, are discussed along with limitations and directions for future research.
