ABSTRACT

Leadership management is an age old phenomenal concept that explains the well-being of a people or groups. It is associated with functions of management, (Daft, 2005; Ponder, 2005), which resonates aspects of and the need for achieving and consistently delivering goals and objectives of the followers, effectively and efficiently. With diverse leadership management agenda that are not always known to any but the leadership managers themselves (Ponder, 2005) are executed on Obagi and Ogba people in Niger Delta, Nigeria. In this paper, Laish or the impoverished (Ahiamadu, 2016) is used to represent Obagi, Ogba or the suffering and unsuspecting people. Thus, this paper goes several steps further to examine how leadership managers and followership attitude, behavior and cultural mind-set have contributed to present day sufferings of the “peaceful and unsuspecting”. Applying several perspectives from diverse scholars and other sources, this paper therefore, used methodological theory of frustration-aggression, motivational and Ohio State theories to investigate a complex and multi-dimensional cultural attitude and behavior analysis contexts. Also, dissatisfaction, oppression, human rights deprivation and sufferings are tied to the leadership-followership attitude, behavior, cultural mind-set and incompetence themes. Serious human rights breaches have stripped these peaceful and unsuspecting people their God-given rights and almost decimated them through subtle execution of gradual genocidal series. As in many comments from public opinion forum world-wide, the interest in Nigeria and especially in the Niger Delta was motivated by the latifundia-like (ownership of extensive land) attitude and behavior of both the leadership and followership. Its findings depict phenomenal leadership and followership attitudes, behaviors and cultural mind-set that have led to genocide and serious leadership incompetency. The implications encompass security threats, serious human right issues and impoverishment of the peaceful and unsuspecting people of Obagi and Ogba.

Six (6) firms were selected using purposeful sampling technique. The Taro Yamene formula was applied to determine the sample size. An aggregate of one hundred and ninety six (196) respondents was obtained. Using the Spearman rank order correlation coefficient application from Software Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 27, we found that significant relationship exists between psychological empowerment and organizational identification.

ABSTRACT

 

Descriptive statistics were calculated to describe the demographic characteristics of the respondents and research design and methodology is quasi-experimental and correlational analysis at 0.05 alpha or significance level. Interval data to detect core cultural behavior and attitude influence was collected using Likert five scale type and structured questionnaire. A simple convenience method was adopted to obtain a sample size of 172 drawn from a population of 200 male and 100 female professionals from diverse backgrounds (culturally and academically), ages from 18 through 70. Taro Yamane (1967) formula was used to determine the sample size of 172 at e = 0.05. But, only 70 out of the 172 questionnaire were completely filled.  Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software tool, Spearman rank correlation procedure and a two-tailed test were employed. Regardless of the direction of the relationship, the hypothesis tested for the possibility of the relationship on both directions between the predictor (leadership core cultural behavior) and the criterion variable (performance outcomes) of independent and dependent variables. All hypotheses were subjected to a two tailed test at a 95 per cent confidence level (a level of significance, α= 0.05).  The reliability of the instrument and data, Cronbach alpha at 0.8 was used. The results under study was presented in form of percentages.  The findings depicted significant relationship between leadership cultural behavior and performance outcomes.
