Leadership Claiming and Granting: Scale Development, Antecedents, and Outcomes

People emerge as leaders both because they claim leadership and because others grant them leadership (DeRue & Ashford, 2010). Although this line of research has been transformative, an established measure and empirical investigation of this process is currently lacking. To illustrate, past work operationalized leadership claiming and granting through other constructs, such as participation and influence. The current symposium seeks to present emerging research examining the empirical process of leadership claiming and granting at various levels of analyses (i.e., dyadic, individual, and team).
