Dönüştürücü, Etkileşimci ve Tam Serbesti Tanıyan Liderlik Tarzlarının Örgütsel Sessizlik Üzerindeki Etkisini Belirlemeye Yönelik Bir Araştırma(The Effect of Transformational, Transactional and Laissez-Faire Leadership Styles on Organizational Silence: An Empirical Study)
Abstract
Employees are more efficient and effective in a workplace which they can put forward problems and solutions and they are able to easily discuss their ideas and suggestions. In some organizations, views of employees are ignored and they are blocked to tell their ideas, and so non-participative organizational climate is created in time. In formation of the climate, it is very important which leadership styles are applied and the impact of leaders. In this context, the purpose of this research is to determine the effect of transformational, transactional and laissez-faire leadership styles on organizational silence. According to results of this empirical study, it is founded that employees are not silent in transformational leadership style, but they prefer to remain silent in transactional leadership style and laissez-faire leadership style. Furthermore, theoretical implications for both employees and practitioners are discussed at the end of the study.
