Resumo(s)
Leaders are crucial to ensuring the well-being of their subordinates. This study aims to
understand the effects of two leadership styles (empowering vs. directive) on subordinates’ well-being
in an emergency situation (i.e., rural fire). A simulation study was conducted with two experimental
conditions (empowering vs. directive leadership), and the subordinates’ stress levels were measured
before and after the simulated episode. Contrary to expectations, empowering leadership had no
significant effect on subordinates’ stress levels, while directive leadership contributed to reducing
them. As expected, this effect was stronger for the subordinates with higher levels of stress prior to
the simulated episode.
