It is found that leader political skill has positive effects on group performance, work performance and human interaction. The research is based on the definitions of political skill, which were made by previous scholars, to examine the relation between political skill and trust. Secondly, between leader political skill and subordinate trust, the research also explores leader reputation and the communication frequency between superintendents and subordinates.
The subjects of the research are the 145 units of Kaohsiung City Government. Questionnaires are sent to 750 supervisors and 2,250 subordinates. 214 supervisors and 566 subordinates have responded. The matched samples are 110. The ratios of response are 29% and 25% in superintendents and subordinates respectively. First, the result of the research shows that leader political skill has positive effects on leader reputation, but no effects on subordinate cognition-based trust, subordinate affection-based trust and the communication frequency between supervisors and subordinates. Second, leader reputation doesn’t have positive effects on subordinate cognition-based trust, whereas the communication frequency has positive effect on subordinate cognitive-based and affect-based trust.
