Abstract
We present two studies of remote transformational leadership. In the first, 175 students read a vignette depicting either a laissez‐faire, management by exception, contingent reward, or transformational leadership style communicated by electronic mail (e‐mail). Results showed that students could distinguish between the various leadership styles, and both interpersonal justice and supervision satisfaction were perceived to be higher when a transformational style was presented. In the second study, 105 undergraduates completed individual and group problem solving tasks after reading an e‐mail containing either an intellectually stimulating or charismatic message in a 2×2 design. Participants properly identified the leadership style intended by the e‐mail. Motivation was higher, and both individual and group performance greater, in the leadership conditions.

Abstract
Purpose
The collaborative assessment and management of suicide (CAMS) is an evidenced-based therapeutic framework designed to facilitate a co-authored and collaborative approach to addressing suicidality (Jobes, 2009). The collaborative nature of this approach is fundamental to its success in delivering suicide specific and recovery-oriented mental health care to thousands of suicidal people to date. The purpose of this paper is to outline the CAMS model and propose it as a recovery-oriented approach to addressing suicidality in mental health care.
Design/methodology/approach
The CAMS model and its philosophy are reviewed in light of recovery principles.
Findings
It is proposed that the CAMS model is consistent with a recovery-oriented approach to mental health care for suicidal people.
Originality/value
As yet there are no specifically identified recovery-oriented approaches to addressing suicidality.
