Zusammenfassung

Der vorliegende Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit Abusive Supervision. Gemeint ist Vorgesetztenverhalten, welches als anhaltend feindselig wahrgenommen wird. In Abgrenzung zur bislang üblichen Konzeption als (dysfunktionaler) Führungsstil versteht dieser Beitrag das Phänomen als stabiles konfliktäres Beziehungsmuster. Im Mittelpunkt der Überlegungen steht die Frage, woraus ein solches Muster seine Stabilität bezieht, besitzt es doch nachweislich negative Wirkungen auf adressierte Mitarbeiter sowie die Organisation. Die Antwort wird in (Sensemaking-)Prozessen der individuellen Erwartungsgeneralisierung und Realitätskonstruktion gesehen, die auf beiden Seiten der Interaktion stattfinden und sich wechselseitig beeinflussen und stabilisieren. Ist Abusive Supervision einmal etabliert, reguliert es über die stabilisierte Beziehungsstruktur den Fortgang des Führungsgeschehens. Konsequenzen dieser Überlegungen werden schließlich für die zukünftige Abusive Supervision Forschung ebenso diskutiert, wie für den praktischen Umgang.

Abstract

This article analyzes the concept of Abusive Supervision, which refers to followers’ sustained perceptions of hostile leader behavior. Current understandings of Abusive Supervision are often one-sided, positing the concept simply as a dysfunctional leadership style. In contrast, this article conceptualizes Abusive Supervision as a sustained relationship conflict, acknowledging that both leader and follower influence their shared reality. The supposition of Abusive Supervision as an interpersonal conflict will be discussed in the light of individual (sensemaking) processes and the interdependent generalization of expectations. This paper argues that once Abusive Supervision is established, it governs the ongoing leadership interaction. Theoretical and practical implications will be considered.
