Leading Independent Contractors A Parallel Power Model
Patricia Bush
| Abstract |
Costs associated with turnover in an important group of workers, independent contractors, are identified in order to show the impact of a lack of leadership training for the “point-of-contact” between a firm and its contractors. A new model of leadership utilizing components of Path-Goal Theory, Transformational Leadership, and Creative Leadership is proposed to remedy this situation.
