Description
Organizational success or failure depends on the efficiency and effectiveness of various internal factors, which includes its leadership style. Organizational leadership style enables it to establish effective practices, strategies and most importantly influence the leaders and followers to work effectively towards achieving the organizational goals. Every organization adopts a different leadership style depending on the context and the values, beliefs and attitudes of the top management. It is essential for the organization to adopt an effective leadership approach since it directly influences the performance and motivational levels of the employees.
