Abstract

Leadership behavior is one of the factors constituting a leader's capacity. Leaders need to have effective leadership behaviors to lead, empower, inspire, and help employees develop and elevate themselves, as well as improve employee satisfaction with the organization. The necessary conditions of leadership competence cover leadership quality, knowledge, and application of leadership skills. Sufficient conditions require leadership behaviors based on that quality and knowledge. To become excellent leaders, besides qualities and knowledge, they should have effective leadership behaviors to help employees develop themselves and create employee satisfaction with organizations. The more satisfied employees are, the better their working performance and the lower their absence as well as job change will be. Then, organizations and businesses will achieve their expectations of business performance. This study aimed to test the impact of leadership behavior on employee satisfaction in Vietnamese small and medium enterprises. Based on the survey sample of 491 questionnaires for employees in small and medium enterprises, the results of quantitative research demonstrated that people-oriented leadership behavior had a positive impact on employee satisfaction in small and medium enterprises, including engagement, conciliation, patience, and persuasion. As a result, the study provided recommendations for developing leadership behaviors, which would bring about a good influence on employee satisfaction.

INTRODUCTION

Leadership theories have gradually contributed to solving two big questions in leadership studies: What is a leader? And what is effective leadership? There appears to be a clear trend of shifting the research focus and expanding the research scope from individual leaders to their relationship with employees, specific context, and situational factors affecting leadership effectiveness. Four basic approaches in leadership research concentrate on detecting and testing regular problems in leadership effectiveness. These approaches have numerous theories, showing the shifting research process in terms of approaching personal qualities and characteristics, behavior, situation, and interactive influence.

Kerstin Keen (2000) emphasized the relationship between leadership knowledge and leadership behavior. Leadership behavior would be formed through the application of knowledge acquired and specific leadership activities. Therefore, it can be understood that knowledge would be an input and behavior would be an output in each individual’s leadership capacity. Leadership behavior affects several factors of the organization, namely corporate culture, work environment, and employee satisfaction (Graves et al., 2013; Ahmad & Yekta, 2014; Majidipour et al., 2021). A leader with good leadership behavior should make employees respect, trust, admire, and become loyal to them, thereby creating excitement at work and bringing satisfaction to employees. Moreover, leadership behavior could influence employees’ productivity, engagement, commitment to the organization, or intention to quit. Kovach (1995) indicated clearly that: "The biggest problem of leaders is to accurately perceive the factors that make employees satisfied." As long as employees were satisfied with their work, the work efficiency would be better, and the rate of absenteeism and job transfer would be lower. Consequently, organizations and enterprises might also achieve their desired results (Graves et al., 2013; Ahmad & Yekta, 2014).

Deriving from the role of leadership behavior in the organization, several studies on leadership behavior have been conducted, including a study on leadership behavior by Stogdill (1963). His study, which was considered the most complete version describing the leader's behavior, proposed 12 groups of behaviors that leaders had demonstrated. Also, its findings have been applied to the analysis of leadership behavior until today (Schriesheim & Kerr, 1974). As a result, suggestions should be shared to help leaders strengthen effective, people-oriented leadership behaviors to improve employee satisfaction, thereby enhancing enterprise competitiveness in the current context.

 

Theoretical Foundations and Research Methods

 

Theoretical Foundations

Leadership theory has been an important topic in the social sciences for many researchers for decades. Jolson et al. (1993) described leadership as the ability to influence followers performance and inspire them to accomplish a certain goal with spontaneous activities and attitude. Doyle and Smith (1999) divided leadership theory into four generations in terms of approach: personal qualities and characteristics, behavior, situation, and interactive influence.

There have been numerous studies using the leadership behavior approach. To be specific, the first study was conducted at the Ohio State University in the late 1940s, based on the findings of Stogdill (1948). At around the same time, another group of researchers at Michigan State University explored how leadership works in small groups. A third line of research was begun by Blake and Mouton in the early 1960s, which discovered how leaders use task behavior and relationship behavior in organizations. Researchers of Ohio State University, Hemphill (1949), and colleagues started a series of extensive and systematic studies to identify leadership behaviors related to groups’ or an organization’s performance. Factor analysis indicated that the questions focused on two groups of leadership behaviors: considerate leadership and structural leadership.

Researchers from the University of Michigan (1948) pointed out that leader behaviors should include people-oriented behavior and task-oriented behavior. However, differences in the assumptions remain. Researchers at the University of Michigan suggested that task-oriented and person-oriented behaviors would be opposite ends of a single continuum of leadership behavior. Meanwhile, those at the Ohio State University believed that task-oriented behavior and people-oriented behavior should be independent styles. Therefore, leaders might be good at being both people-oriented and task-oriented, or weak in both, or they might be good at one only.

According to Stogdill's research, effective leadership behavior should include 12 behaviors divided into 2 groups, namely people-oriented behavior and task-oriented behavior. It can be said that these approaches were based on the authors' approach (Blake et al., 1964). In specific, people-oriented leadership behavior should demonstrate respect, mutual trust, enthusiasm, and concern of the leader toward his/her subordinates. Additionally, the leader would facilitate interaction, calm, and minimize employee conflicts. People-oriented leadership behavior should include the following behaviors: representation, demand reconciliation, tolerance of uncertainty, persuasiveness, consideration, and integration.

In recent years, employee satisfaction has been a popular topic attracting many researchers (Aydogdu & Asikgil, 2011; Belias et al., 2015). If employees feel satisfied, they will contribute more to the organization, which might be the key to enhancing labor productivity and loyalty to the organization. Locke (1976) explained that "employee satisfaction is a positive emotional state resulting from the appraisal of one's job or job experiences”. In 1980, Francis and Milbourn defined employee satisfaction as the result of employees' perceptions of all aspects of their jobs. Based on the theory of Smith et al. (1969) and Weiss, Dawis, England, and Lofquist (1967), Koustelios and Mpagiati (1997) also provided criteria to measure satisfaction through a questionnaire called ESI (Employee Satisfaction Inventory). Within the scope of research, the thesis measures employee satisfaction through 3 criteria: salary, the nature of work, and promotion opportunities.

Leadership behavior and job satisfaction have always been major research areas of organizations. Several studies have examined the relationship between these two variables and concluded that leadership behavior remarkably influences a wide range of job outcomes, including employee satisfaction (Boehnke et al., 2003; Griffith, 2004; Chang & Lee, 2007). Besides, there has been plenty of research supporting the existence of a relationship between people-oriented leadership behavior and employee satisfaction, which all came to the conclusion that people-oriented leadership behavior has to affect employee satisfaction (Halpin, 1954; Patchen, 1962; Nealy & Blood, 1968; Greene & Schriesheim, 1977; Katerberg & Horn, 1981; Wycoff & Skogan, 1994). This is also the foundation for the authors to propose a research model on the impacts of people-oriented leadership behavior on employee satisfaction in small and medium enterprises in Vietnam.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Inheriting previous studies and through practical evaluation, the authors propose a research model with the expectation that people-oriented leadership behavior positively influences employee satisfaction in SMEs. The research model is presented in Figure 1.

 

Figure 1. Proposed Research Model People-Oriented Leadership Behavior

Source: Recommended by the authors

The research model consists of independent variables: the authors referred to the research on the leadership behavior of Stogdill, 1963; however, to match that research with this study context and resources, the authors chose 06 people-oriented behaviors, including representation, demand reconciliation, tolerance of uncertainty, persuasiveness, consideration, and integration. Dependent variable: Employee satisfaction—Using the ESI—Employee Satisfaction Inventory (Koustelios, 1991; Koustelios & Bagiatis, 1997) with adjustments to measure employee satisfaction.

The Proposed Hypotheses Include

Hypothesis H1: Representation (DD) would positively impact employee satisfaction (HLNV).

Hypothesis H2: Demand Reconciliation (HG) would positively impact employee satisfaction (HLNV).

Hypothesis H3: Tolerance of uncertainty would positively impact employee satisfaction (HLNV).

Hypothesis H4: Persuasiveness (TP) would positively impact employee satisfaction (HLNV).

Hypothesis H5: Consideration would positively impact employee satisfaction (HLNV).

Hypothesis H6: Integration (GK) would positively impact employee satisfaction (HLNV).

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Cronbach's Alpha for Reliability Testing

The research team carried out the quantitative analysis and deployed non-probability sampling with a questionnaire (containing the 5-level Likert scale) sent to employees working at small and medium enterprises. Participants included 715 male and female employees who had worked in small and medium enterprises for 1 year or more, had diplomas from college or higher degrees, and were aged between 23-59. Out of 550 responses collected, 59 responses were ineligible, and 491 responses were processed by SPSS software. The process used these methods, respectively, as follows: Cronbach's alpha reliability test, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), and multiple linear regression.

30 observations and 6 latent variables were taken into account. Latent variables would be considered qualifying if their Cronbach's alpha fell between 0.807 and 0.923. The authors eliminated one variable, including HG2, with an item-total correlation less than 0.4 and retained 29 of the 30 observed variables with an item-total correlation greater than 0.4. Table 1 displays the Cronbach's Alpha for each of the independent variables.

Employee satisfaction included 4 observed variables. The analysis results of Cronbach’s alpha equal 0.835, which is > 0.7, which was qualified. In these 4 observed variables, all had the item-total correlation being higher than 0.4, so the authors kept these 4 observed variables unchanged. The Cronbach’s Alpha of these variables is shown in Table 2.

Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA)

The study carried out EFA for 06 independent variables and 29 scales. After deploying EFA three times, the results showed that Bartlett's test had Sig = 0.000 < 0.05, and the KMO coefficient = 0.942 > 0.5, which ensures reliability (Jongjai et al., 2021). The Eigenvalue coefficient of the fifth factor was 1,015; it is confirmed that there are 05 factors drawn from the analysis, and the total variance extracted from the five factors was 72,953. This illustrated that the variation of the factors given from the analysis can explain 72.95% of the variation of the original survey data. The above-observed variables had the factor loading being >0.5, so there are no variables in the analysis. Five groups of factors were identified to be used in the analysis model, including representation (DD), tolerance of uncertainty (KN), persuasiveness (TP), consideration (NV), and integration (GK). The exploratory factor analysis of these variables is shown in Tables 3 and 4.

Similarly, the study carried out the EFA for dependent variables with 4 scales. After only one deployment, Bartlett's test produced Sig = 0.000 < 0.05, and the KMO coefficient = 0.878 > 0.5, which ensured reliability. The above-observed variables had factor loading being >0.5, so it is unnecessary to remove any variable in the analysis (Marhana et al., 2021; Nakagawa & Yamashita, 2022).

 

Regression Analysis

The authors evaluated the relationship between independent variables and dependent variables through a linear regression model:

Model: Assessing the impact of people-oriented leadership behaviors on employee satisfaction (HLNV)

Through the authors' calculations, the adjusted R2 coefficient = 0.436 showed that the linear regression model is consistent with the data set at 43.6%. ANOVA analysis of the regression model is 76.809, Sig = 0.000<0.05, which illustrates the overall suitability of the regression model. The analysis results are shown in Table 5.

The regression analysis demonstrated that at the 5% significance level, only integration, consideration, tolerance of uncertainty, and persuasiveness affected employee satisfaction in SMEs. Based on the normalized beta, it was found that integration had the strongest impact (β = 0,307), followed by consideration (β = 0,199), tolerance of uncertainty (β = 0,157), and Persuasiveness (β = 0.097). Representation did not affect employee satisfaction.

Therefore, people-oriented leadership has a positive impact on employee satisfaction. The results are similar to findings by Halpin (1954), Patchen (1962), Hodge (1976), Katerberg and Horne (1981), Kylie Bartolo and Brett Furlonger, University of Melbourne, Australia (2000). Moreover, this study's authors were able to discover the impact levels of each behavior in the group of human-oriented behaviors on employee satisfaction.

CONCLUSION

Based on an overview of related works, the study developed an appropriate model and tested the human-oriented behaviors of leaders affecting employee satisfaction in enterprises in Vietnam. Research results showed that integration, consideration, tolerance of uncertainty, and persuasiveness would affect employee satisfaction in small and medium enterprises in Vietnam. Based on these findings, the authors offered some recommendations to improve the effectiveness of management to promote employee satisfaction through the human-oriented behavior of leaders:

Firstly, regarding integration, in small and medium-sized enterprises, leaders should demonstrate integration through the following activities, including engaging seniors and newbies via the mentoring program. The leader is the one who must inspire each group so that the members can be more motivated, as well as organize collective competitions. Leaders are pioneers that lead all the movements of enterprises. Leaders must create a family atmosphere in the organization that is friendly, open, and trusting so that employees can comfortably share their problems and conflicts, which creates solidarity with the organization.

Secondly, in terms of consideration, leaders and employees should participate in group training sessions and extracurricular activities, as these activities will increase understanding and affection between leaders and employees. Leaders must take actions such as listening to employees and regularly talking to employees. In leadership, leaders must take actions that show fairness. In contrast, with incompetent employees, leaders must also have thorough discipline. Through these behaviors, employees will feel satisfied with the business and devote themselves to the enterprise.

Thirdly, regarding tolerance of uncertainty, when problems occur in enterprises, leaders must patiently find solutions and discover causes to avoid such incidents and issues in the future. Leaders, instead of spending time and energy looking for people to take responsibility, should be more concerned with using failure as an opportunity to learn and develop. Once leadership behavior is motivated by emotions, it is easy to lead to bad decisions. In times of loss of temper lack of patience, leaders should think about the consequences if they do not control and master their emotions.

Fourthly, in terms of persuasiveness, in small and medium-sized enterprises, it is necessary to have behaviors that show beliefs or encourage everyone, including employees and leaders, to believe in themselves and each other. Leaders must build teams of trust. Building a culture of trust in the organization is also a way that leaders can use to inspire all employees, which will increase trust, loyalty, and satisfaction among the staff. Therefore, any words of encouragement and praise from the leaders, especially in front of all members of the organization, will make employees feel proud. They will be more open to sharing and supporting each other in work as well as in life. It is also a leverage that motivates other employees to try and develop their abilities. This is a popular measure used by many leaders in small and medium-sized businesses because of its effectiveness.

The research findings also open up new research directions for other researchers to approach the next groups of leadership behaviors, such as task-oriented behaviors, to develop an effective set of leadership behaviors, and future studies can be carried out in enterprises on a larger scale.
