Autocratic, consultative, democratic, laissez-faire, convincing, transformational, and authoritative are types of leadership and each styles have different effects on the subordinates resulting into different outcomes. Management is responsible for making an organization's resources effectively, while the value of the organizational structure and culture in place cannot be ignored, hence this study also describes the factor which influences while selection of the specific leadership style. There is no one management style that fits every organization; instead, each organization must adopt a style that guarantees its accomplishment of organizational goals. When determining on a style of leadership, the magnitude & structure of the organization should be factored into the equation. Employee commitment to organization has indeed been studied, with focus on communication, job stress, and employee motivation. Lastly, theories of leadership, external factors that influence leadership, and the correlation between leadership and organizational performance were examined. In this thesis, a total of five case studies have been used to evaluate social occurrences using a descriptive approach, and the results have been drawn accordingly.
