Résumé
Plusieurs chercheurs et praticiens s’efforcent d’améliorer la prédiction de comportements de leadership. Suivant cette perspective, la présente étude se concentre sur le modèle des « Great Eight » (Bartram, 2005) et vise à vérifier les liens théoriques proposés entre les composites de personnalité et les comportements de leadership transformationnel et de récompense contingente. Menée auprès de 113 gestionnaires, elle appuie faiblement la valeur ajoutée du modèle, mais indique la présence de relations personnalité-leadership. La discussion met en perspective ces résultats en fonction des travaux sur le leadership et suggère quelques pistes pour améliorer la prédiction des comportements de leadership.

Abstract
Researchers are constantly trying to improve the prediction of leadership behaviors. Accordingly, the present study focuses on the Great Eight model proposed by Bartram (2005) and aims to verify theoretical hypotheses linking personality composites to transformational leadership and contingent reward behaviors. Conducted with 113 managers, the study provides weak support to the proposed model. However, significant relationships between personality and leadership were found. The discussion puts in perspective those results with literature and suggests ways to improve the prediction of leadership behaviors.
