Leader-member exchange (LMX) is the foremost dyadic theory in the
leadership literature. Whereas contemporary leadership theories
such as transformational, servant, or authentic leadership theories
focus on the effects of leader behaviors on employee attitudes,
motivation, and team outcomes, relational leadership theory views
the dyadic relationship quality between leaders and members as the
key to understanding leader effects on members, teams, and
organizations. This approach views trust- and respect-based
relationships as the cornerstone of leadership. LMX has grown from
a new theory in the 1970s to a mature area of research in 2015.
Interest in this theory has increased rapidly over the past four
decades, and the pace of research in this area continues to
accelerate dramatically. The Oxford Handbook of Leader-Member
Exchange takes stock of the literature to examine its roots, what
is currently known, what research gaps may exist, and what areas
are in need of the most urgent research.
