Description
Summary:The study aimed at assessing the relationship between leadership styles and employees' performance at Pertubuhan Peladang Negeri Johor (PPNJ) subsidiaries. The main objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between different leadership styles namely transformational leadership, transactional leadership, and laissez-faire leadership, and employees' performance. A cross section descriptive survey research strategy was adopted in which 41 usable structured questionnaires were collected from 44 questionnaires distributed. Descriptive and inferential statistical techniques were used for data analysis. In inferential statistics, Pearson's correlation and regression analysis were used to assess both relationships and extent of influence as per the hypotheses of the study. The findings showed that transformational leadership is the most exhibited style at PPNJ subsidiaries, followed by transactional leadership and laissez-faire leadership. Besides, it also showed that transformational leadership and transactional leadership have significant relationships with employees' performance, while laissez-faire leadership has no significant relationship with employees' performance. The findings suggested that transformational leadership is the most influential leadership style towards employees' performance at PPNJ subsidiaries.
