On the element of academic idea, the following example is illustrative:


"Leadership theories abound in the literature. One management principle is that managers should coach their subordinates as well as assess them (Wong and Li, 2015). Given guidance, the leadership styles of managers can greatly influence employees’ behavior (Lin et al., 2010; Li and Sun, 2015). Two dimensions of leadership are recognized by the Ohio School of Management Leadership, which are leader consideration and leader initiating structure. Leader initiating structure is bound up with how a supervisor coaches service staff. Leader consideration refers to the degree to which supervisors create an atmosphere of support and show their concern for the subordinates’ well-being (Bass and Stogdill, 1981; Judge et al., 2004; Kerr et al., 1974; Lin et al., 2014)"; [Lishan Xie, Yaoqi Li, Sheng-Hsiang Chen, Tzung-Cheng Huan, (2016) "Triad theory of hotel managerial leadership, employee brand-building behavior, and guest images of luxury-hotel brands", International Journal of Contemporary Hospitality Management, Vol. 28 Issue: 9, pp.1826-1847, https://doi.org/10.1108/IJCHM-01-2015-0004.]



Key words: leader consideration and initiating structure

Research tasks: To learn perception of how existing managerial leadership quality in terms of leader consideration and initiating structure affect employees' and organizational performance by unstructured interview and questionnaire survey on company staff.



In this example, "leader consideration and initiating structure" is an academic idea. [Note: Research tasks are not included in theoretical framework level 1a].
