The purpose of this particular study was to examine the indirect effects of executive’s stakeholder and economic values on firm performance through their followers ' perceptions of leadership and follower’s extra effort. Different executives from more than 17 countries showed emphasis on economic values that was parallel to autocratic leadership perceptions of the people that were being led. When it comes to stakeholder values however, perceptions are parallel to visionary leadership. These findings were interesting because they show how followers have certain perceptions about certain leaders. For example, economic driven leaders have the reputation for being hard driving while stakeholder driven leaders have the reputation for being purposeful in whatever they do.

Everyone knows that leaders are perceived to have an effect on their follower’s attitude and behavior. In this study, the authors reversed this order and investigate the degree to which the evaluation of leadership is a result of followers ' perceptions and attributions. In order to corroborate and extend previous experimental research, a field study was conducted to analyze the influence of follower’s personality and perceived leader personality on followers ' perception of leadership within an organizational setting. When the study was finished, the results showed that the perception of the leaders personality had a big impact on whether or not the follower look at them as a favorable leader.
