Leadership is hard to define, and selecting an appropriate leadership style is even harder. The leadership approach adopted by a leader plays a vital role in determining and assessing the performance of employees. Suitable methods encourage high performance and professional growth, while a poor choice can stunt both workers’ and organizational potential. Understanding each leadership approach in-depth is necessary for its effective implementation. Previously, many review articles have been published that have compared popular leadership styles, but this review provides a full spectrum of approaches, complete with visual graphics and a balanced breakdown of each form’s impact on workers’ performance. Data is collected from various journals using keywords relevant to every phase of leadership style. The leadership approaches examined in this review consist of transformational, transactional, laissez-faire, autocratic, servant, democratic, charismatic, and situational leadership. By gaining insight into various leadership styles, leaders can refine their skills, and management can choose an efficient leadership style that boosts success and a healthy work environment.
