Abstract

The present work context has undergone transformations that have substantially changed labor relations and contributed to the emergence of less hierarchical and more collaborative organizational arrangements. This new environment requires a different approach to leadership (Uhl-Bien, Marion, & McKelvey, 2007). The “carrot and stick” approach no longer works as it used to, particularly with the new generation of workers, who are more interconnected and have easy access to information.
