Leadership plays a crucial role in shaping employee behavior, motivation, and productivity within organizations. In a rapidly changing business environment, organizations require effective leadership styles to maintain competitiveness and employee engagement. This study examines the influence of different leadership styles—transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire—on employee productivity. Using a quantitative research approach, data were collected from employees working in medium and large-scale organizations. Statistical analysis reveals that transformational leadership has the strongest positive impact on employee productivity, followed by transactional leadership, while laissez-faire leadership shows minimal influence. The study highlights the importance of adaptive leadership practices and provides practical implications for managers seeking to enhance organizational performance.
