Despite a growing literature devoted to the study of differences in the quality of leader-member exchange, little empirical evidence is available concerning factors that influence the degree of differentiation among leader-member dyads on the dimension of quality of working relationships. As time-pressure has been suggested as one potential influence, the impact of time-based stress on leader-member exchange was examined with a sample of 138 loan officers representing 24 bank branches. Results indicated that unit-level variability on leader-member exchange was inversely related with time-based stress, while unit-level mean on leader-member exchange was positively related with time-based stress. Additionally, leader-member exchange acted as a mediator of the relation between employee locus of control (a suspected antecedent of dyadic quality) and organizational commitment (a suspected outcome), while employee locus of control correlated with leader-member exchange, and leader-member exchange correlated with employee organizational commitment. The results suggest the usefulness of considering time-based stress in conjunction with current models of leadership.
