TL;DR: A theoretical model developed to explore the mediating effect of organizational culture and knowledge sharing on transformational leadership and ERP success suggests that development culture has direct impact on ERPSuccess, while hierarchical culture, group and rational culture are indirectly related with ERPsuccess, mediated by explicit and tacit knowledge sharing.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the empirical literature in leadership and fairness to define the field of leader and fairness, assess the state of the art, and identify a research agenda for future efforts in the field.
Abstract: Research in leadership effectiveness has paid less attention to the role of leader fairness than probably it should have. More recently, this has started to change. To capture this development, we review the empirical literature in leadership and fairness to define the field of leadership and fairness, to assess the state of the art, and to identify a research agenda for future efforts in the field. The review shows that leader distributive, procedural, and especially interactional fairness are positively associated with criteria of leadership effectiveness. More scarce and scattered evidence also suggests that fairness considerations help explain the effectiveness of other aspects of leadership, and that leader fairness and other aspects of leadership, or the leadership context, may interact in predicting leadership effectiveness. We conclude that future research should especially focus on interaction effects of leader fairness and other aspects of leadership, and on the processes mediating these effects.

TL;DR: The authors used discriminant analysis to construct profiles of two types of teachers: those with a low level of job satisfaction and those with an extremely high level of satisfaction, and found that teachers with low levels of satisfaction can be reliably distinguished from teachers with a high level by their occupational perceptions, principals' leadership styles, and a number of their demographic characteristics.

TL;DR: The authors found that project management has distinct modalities of control that they outline in the paper: reputational, calculative, and professional, rather than foreshadowing a future transformational form, instead of a much older design: that of de Tocqueville.
Abstract: For the past decade, project organization has become increasingly central to management and organization studies, particularly as these seek to discern the contours of post-modern organizations. Yet, these contours frequently seem to be sighted without bearings on the current realities of project management. In this paper we take such bearings, using data derived from detailed qualitative, ethnographic enquiry into the experience of project management. From this data we construct the contours of project management more sharply. Rather than being a harbinger of an autonomous and more democratic future, free from extant bureaucratic organization controls, we find that project management has distinct modalities of control that we outline in the paper: reputational, calculative, and professional. Indeed, rather than foreshadowing a future transformational form, we find traces of a much older design: that of de Tocqueville.
