Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between various leadership styles and employees' productivity in the banking industry of Pakistan. The study employed partial least squares (PLS) to a set of data collected through questionnaire from the employees of banks operating in Peshawar, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Pakistan. The findings revealed a significant positive association between transformational leadership and employees' productivity. The authoritarian leadership was found insignificantly negative while a transactional leadership style accounted for an insignificant positive association with employees' productivity. Also, the findings confirmed that organizational culture has a significantly positive role in enhancing employees' productivity in the banking industry of Pakistan. The findings are useful for managers, regulators, policymakers, and employees of the banking industry in Pakistan. Also, the findings enrich the previous limited and incongruent literature in the area.
