Abstract
This study employs within and between analysis methods to as sess whether leaders' communication styles vary or are consistent across their subordinates. To assess these two perspectives, the av erage and vertical dyad linkage models were employed. An evaluative dimension of communicator style was most consistent with the average or group-level model. A dynamic dimension, however, was consistent only with a special null condition. Both dimensions of communicator style were strongly associated with subordinate satisfaction with supervision.
