Abstract

This study explores the intricate relationship between leadership styles and their impact on organizational dynamics, focusing on leaders within companies in Pune. Through a cross-sectional survey involving 400 top-level management professionals, we investigate the correlation between leaders' opinions about different leadership styles and their perceived influence on team dynamics and organizational outcomes. Our findings reveal a significant positive relationship between leadership styles and their perceived impact, underscoring the pivotal role of leadership in shaping work environments. Additionally, we establish a strong association between leaders' opinions about specific leadership styles and their decision-making approaches, highlighting the interplay between personal preferences and strategic choices. The study also examines demographic characteristics such as gender, age, and educational backgrounds, providing insights into the diversity of leadership participation. Implications include guidance for organizations seeking to foster effective leadership practices and optimize performance. Although limited to the Pune region and relying on self-reported perceptions, this research paves the way for future studies expanding the geographical scope, utilizing qualitative approaches, and delving into the nuances of leadership development programs and demographic influences.
