Understanding supportive leadership in organizations
REFNo: SS3820ES
This study investigates how supportive leadership influences bottom-up knowledge sharing within organizations. Although frontline employees often have valuable insights, their knowledge frequently fails to reach upper management—often due to supervisory barriers such as strict hierarchies, micromanagement, or a lack of psychological safety.
To address this, the research team is conducting a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in collaboration with Centenary Bank Uganda. The intervention involves providing supportive leadership training to supervisors (middle managers) in randomly selected bank branches. Control branches will not receive the training during the study period.
Our main objective therefore is to test and measure the effect of supportive leadership training on bottom-up knowledge sharing and other organizational outcomes in a real-world organizational setting.
