Several factors can affect and define the working relationship between academic department heads and faculty members. Faculty perception of trustworthiness in chairpersons can move the relationship towards positive goals. Conversely, detachment and selfishness in department leaders can adversely affect the relationship. Other affective factors, either positive or negative, are performance evaluations, recognition, support, professional interference, social interaction and communication.
