We discussed rule-based vs consequence-based decision making w our MBA students. Leaders are role models and, in uncertain times, research shows that clear guidance & rules can increase collaboration + voice. #no10party is an example of what not to do.
Uncertainty but still want to work together & think creatively? Any leader will do well to set some ground rules. Sounds boring? View it as kindness, but don’t micro-manage. A @JIBSupdates #openaccess study across countries https://t.co/fX7liunzla @SH

@HelenOatey @ronald_fischer @AWHarzing @ReicherStephen It is complicated because it is layered - national values drive normative behaviours (as per jibs article https://t.co/fX7liunzla ). But any leader hoping for a solid solution may not have patience for
In organisations too, the art of communicating rules can help a sense of belonging (citizenship) so that people work together for each other in uncertain environments. Read our open access @JIBSupdates paper here https://t.co/tYg8d8O2oQ
