,Do you see what we see? The complex
effects of perceptual distance between
leaders and teams.
Gibson, C. B., Cooper, C. D., & Conger, J. A. (2009)
Definition perceptual distance
• Work teams are complex systems.
o Group of members with independent interaction and mutually shared
responsibilities.
o Efficiency
o Innovation
o Broad access to stakeholders
• Earlier research found that differing viewpoints between leader and team leads to:
o Stalemate (“dood punt”) over how to proceed.
o Customer initiatives failed; team did not made changes necessary to meet
emerging customer preferences.
o As a result, failed to meet targets.
• Leader-team perceptual distance is the differences between leader’s and team’s
perception of same social stimulus à Significant variations in perceptions.
o Important to generate/develop awareness.
o Differences are detrimental because:
1. Hinder team from maximizing collective cognition.
2. Reaching its full potential.
Perceptual distance between a leader and a team
• According to Zaccaro et al. (2001), leaders influence team effectiveness by:
1. Cognitive processes
2. Motivational processes
3. Affective processes
4. Coordination processes
2
, • Humans experience each other individuals phenomenologically because complexity
of social stimuli and limitations of information processing capabilities.
o Perceptual process influenced by:
1. Experience
2. Personality
3. Cognitive complexity
4. Interests
5. Values
6. Mental scripts
o These influencers shape the way people interpret and perceive the world.
o Teams and leaders may be particularly prone (“gevoelig”) to forming
different perceptions.
o Team phenomena as perceived are crucial for explaining team outcomes.
• Focus on leader’s perception vs. team he/she leads.
o There may be differences among team members but that is not within scope.
Other perceptual concepts
• Earlier studies examine conceptual congruence.
o Which is the similarity (so not the difference) of perceptions held by a
supervisor vs. subordinate in terms of:
§ Communication behavior.
§ Activities necessary to fulfill subordinate’s role.
§ Requirements to get a merit raise.
o Result:
§ Differences in perceptions matter at the dyadic level (“interaction
between two things, two individuals”).
o Short coming:
§ Rely on simple statistics
§ Assumption that perceptual differences were an inherently (“van
nature”) dyaic-level phenomenon.
