Abstract
This research has the following objectives: a) to study the dominant
values of CEOs and how these values influence the relationship between leader
and members in medium and large firms in South Sumatra, Indonesia. b) to
study the influence of LMX toward leadership effectiveness of CEOs in .South
Sumatra, Indonesia, and c) to examine the mediating effect of LMX between
values and leadership effectiveness, which is indicated by the members' Job
satisfaction, members' commitment, and attitude to change. A research
framework relating values to LMX and leadership effectiveness was developed.
Three major hypotheses were formed: a) Leaders' values influence the leadermember
exchange; b) Leader-member exchange influences leadership
effectiveness; and c) Leader-member exchange~medlates-=-thecd"elationship
between leaders' values and leadership effectiveness. Data was collected from
126 companies (CEOs) and 613 members (subordinates). Two sets of
questionnaires were used to collect the data. The analysis of data was done
using correlation analysis and regression analysis. The results showed that
self-direction, self-enhancement (power and achievement), self-transcendence
(universalism and benevolence) and conservation (security and conformity) are
the dominant values. Hypothesis (a) was supported, but only conservation
values had influence on LMX. Hypothesis (b) was supported, where LMX had
influence on the leadership effectiveness, intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction,
affective and normative commitment, and attitude to change. Hypothesis (c)
was supported, conservation values were fully mediated by LMX toward the
leadership effectiveness. From the above it maybe concluded that leaders'
values have an important role in leadership effectiveness and also the quality of
relationship between leader and members (LMX) contribute towards leadership
effectiveness.
