Description
In this presentation, we will re-visit Dr. Shamir’s 1995 work on social distance and charisma that suggested that charisma exists most easily when there is social distance between a leader and his or her followers. These arguments will be extended thanks, in part, to recent studies of psychological distance (e.g. Liberman & Trope, 2008). Dr. Shamir will discuss how and why psychological distance is created between leader and followers. Distance is not only a contextual moderator of leader-follower relationship, but also something that leaders and followers create. Some implications will also be suggested, along with challenges and dilemmas that distance poses for leaders and followers.
