Abstract

Abstract:

Prohibitive voice is the different view proposed from subordinates to superiors There are many antecedent variables to influence prohibitive voice Based on leadership theory, the influence of three leadership styles on the willingness of prohibitive voice is empirically examined Firstly, prohibitive voice will indeed have a positive impact on business performance More negative or modified opinions can improve the prescientific decisionmaking It is also found that transactional and transformational leadership styles are conducive to encouraging subordinates to make prohibitive voice, and the effect of the former is larger However, the paternalistic leadership style is not conducive to encouraging subordinates to make prohibitive voice Conclusion shows that the lack of prohibitive voice will bring a fake prosperity, and the decline in business performance will ultimately affect individual’s interests Therefore, rational leaders should abandon the leadership logic of “focus on formality, surface harmony”, and should construct the leadership model of “management system comes first, supplemented by interpersonal relationship” Rational subordinates should also respect the superiors, and continue to make the prohibitive voice In this way, performance improvement will be the positive feedback to promote transactional and transformational leadership styles

Key words: leadership style, prohibitive voice, corporate performance
