This conceptual article develops a proposed multilevel contingency model in which leadership effectiveness depends partly on the alignment between enacted leader behavior, culturally embedded norms, and the adaptive demands confronting the organization.

This separation makes it difficult to explain why apparently supportive human resource practices can coexist with overload, why relationally rich workplaces can remain exhausting, or why recovery initiatives may fail when leaders communicate competing priorities. This article develops an integrative theoretical framework that treats empl
