Clarifying inspirational motivation and its relationship to extra effort

Abstract

This study investigated the validity of inspirational motivation as measured by the multifactor leadership questionnaire (MLQ). Two new factors were identified, namely image‐based and concept‐based inspirational motivation, and their relationships with the leadership outcome of extra effort were investigated. Implications for research and practice are presented.
