          Abstract

          ABSTRACT Research has found that employees high in cooperative and persistent personality traits tend to engage in more contextual performance at work—extra-role behaviors that support and maintain organizational structure. In a between-subjects experiment, we examined whether descriptions of employees engaged in contextual performance affected inferences about their personality traits and leadership potential. We also examined whether the effects of interpersonal facilitation on perceptions of agreeableness, and perceptions of agreeableness on leadership emergence, were moderated by target employee gender. As predicted, the positive relationship between interpersonal facilitation and leadership emergence was explained by increased perceptions of extraversion and agreeableness, though no effects of target gender emerged. By engaging in interpersonal facilitation, employees may be able to increase others' confidence in their leadership potential through personality inferences.

          RESUMEN La investigación ha encontrado que los empleados que puntúan alto en los rasgos de personalidad de cooperación y persistencia tienden a implicarse en más desempeño contextual en el trabajo -conductas extra rol que apoyan y mantienen la estructura organizacional. En un experimento entre sujetos, examinamos si las descripciones de empleados implicados en desempeño contextual afectaban a las inferencias sobre sus rasgos de personalidad y su potencial de liderazgo. También examinamos si el género del empleado moderaba los efectos de la facilitación interpersonal sobre las percepciones de amigabilidad y las percepciones de amigabilidad sobre la emergencia del liderazgo. Como predijimos, la relación positiva entre la facilitación interpersonal y la emergencia del liderazgo fue explicada por un incremento de las percepciones de extraversión y amigabilidad, aunque no emergieron los efectos debidos al género. Al implicarse en facilitación interpersonal, los empleados pueden ser capaces de aumentar la confianza de los demás en su potencial de liderazgo a través de inferencias de personalidad.

            Role congruity theory of prejudice toward female leaders.

            A role congruity theory of prejudice toward female leaders proposes that perceived incongruity between the female gender role and leadership roles leads to 2 forms of prejudice: (a) perceiving women less favorably than men as potential occupants of leadership roles and (b) evaluating behavior that fulfills the prescriptions of a leader role less favorably when it is enacted by a woman. One consequence is that attitudes are less positive toward female than male leaders and potential leaders. Other consequences are that it is more difficult for women to become leaders and to achieve success in leadership roles. Evidence from varied research paradigms substantiates that these consequences occur, especially in situations that heighten perceptions of incongruity between the female gender role and leadership roles.
