Our limited knowledge about destructive leadership has created an incomplete understanding of why destructive leaders target certain followers. I use the perpetrator predation paradigm to explain why destructive leaders prey on certain followers based on features of followers’ personality and performance. Then, I use meta-analytic data to empirically examine the extent to which predatory destructive leaders rely on followers’ personality versus performance, as well as the sub-facets of each. The relative weight results demonstrate that destructive leaders rely more on followers’ performance than personality (i.e., 92.11% of the explained variance versus 7.89%). Further, the results demonstrate that followers’ counterproductive work behaviors directed toward individuals and organizations account for the majority (i.e., 74.83%) of the variance explained by 10 sub-facets of followers’ personality and performance (R2 = 0.19). Overall, I theoretically argue why and empirically demonstrate how destructive leaders use followers’ personality and performance as they prey on certain followers.

捕食者为何以及如何采食猎物:追随者的性格和表现是破坏性领导力的预测因素

我们对破坏性领导的了解有限,因此对破坏性领导者为何以某些追随者为目标的理解还不够全面。我使用犯罪者的掠夺范式来解释为什么破坏性领导者会根据追随者的性格和表现来对某些追随者进行捕食。然后,我使用荟萃分析数据来实证研究掠夺性破坏性领导者对追随者的性格与绩效的依赖程度,以及每个追随者的子方面。相对权重结果表明,破坏性领导者更多地关注跟随者的表现,而不是个性(即,解释差异的92.11%与7.89%)。此外,结果表明,追随者针对个人和组织的适得其反的工作行为占了大多数(即74。R 2  = 0.19)。总体而言,我在理论上提出了理由,并从经验上证明了破坏性领导人在追随某些追随者时如何利用追随者的个性和表现。
