领导者对领导力的自我评价与领导者的下属、同事和上级的评价之间的一致性（即，自我与他人的一致性（self-other agreement）对于理解领导力至关重要，但关于领导者在多大程度上意识到自己的行为仍存在问题。本研究旨在探讨观察者类型和领导类型是否会影响领导者与观察者之间的一致性。首先，我们检查了收敛性（即，相关性）在沿着领导的几个维度的领导者评级和非领导者评级之间（例如，启动结构，考虑，或有报酬和变革型领导）。我们的研究结果表明，领导者-观察者的相关性一般是温和的，类似的规模为任务和关系为导向的行为（除了一个强相关的权宜奖励）。接下来，我们比较了领导者和观察者的平均水平评级（即，科恩的d），并发现领导者通常报告较低或类似水平的任务导向行为，但较高水平的关系导向行为。最后，几个变量（例如，抽样方法和研究目的）调节领导者-观察者收敛。这些研究结果的影响，理论和实践进行了讨论。
The agreement between a leader's self-rating of leadership and ratings from the leader's subordinates, peers, and superiors (i.e., self-other agreement) is critical to understanding leadership, but questions remain regarding the extent to which leaders are aware of their behaviors. This meta-analysis investigates whether leader-observer agreement is influenced by type of observer and type of leadership. First, we examined the convergence (i.e., correlation) between leader- and observer-ratings along several dimensions of leadership (e.g., initiating structure, consideration, contingent reward, and transformational leadership). Our results indicated that leader-observer correlations were generally moderate and of similar magnitudes for task- and relation-oriented behaviors (with the exception of a strong correlation for contingent reward). Next, we compared leaders' and observers' mean-level ratings (i.e., Cohen's d), and found that leaders generally reported lower or similar levels of task-oriented behaviors but higher levels of relation-oriented behaviors. Last, several variables (e.g., sampling method and study purpose) moderated leader-observer convergence. Implications of these findings for research, theory, and practice are discussed.
