PARENT-ROCHELEAU, Xavier  y  TREMBLAY, Michel. Energy crossover from leader to followers: a time-lagged dtudy of the effects of energy discrepancy and leader-member exchange. Rev. psicol. trab. organ. [online]. 2020, vol.36, n.2, pp.135-145.  Epub 28-Sep-2020. ISSN 2174-0534.  https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/jwop2020a13.

This study investigates the effects of the difference between leaders' and followers' level of subjective energy on the change in subordinates' energy one year later, and on customer-oriented citizenship behaviors. Building mainly on the crossover model, our time-lagged model also examines the moderating role of leader-member exchange. Results of polynomial regression and response surface analyses performed with a sample of 277 dyads in the retail sector indicate that the effect of the energy gap is asymmetrical, such that followers paired with a more energetic leader gain energy one year later, whereas those matched with less energetic leaders experience energy depletion. As expected, a high-quality relationship buffers the de-energizing effect of leaders with lower energy and augments the gain of energy triggered by more energetic leaders.
