dc.description.abstractThe current study aimed to extend existing literature on leadership theories by empirically examining the main effects of transactional, transformational and laissez-faire leadership on the employee’s job satisfaction from an emotional intelligence angle and cultural-based employee perspective. Furthermore, the objective of this study was to extend the empirical usage of the CVSCALE and to provide newly acquired knowledge on the possible moderating effects of emotional intelligence and individual-level collectivism in order to facilitate academics and managers with more knowledge regarding job satisfaction through an effective manager-employee relationship. Overall, the study provided support for the positive impact of transformational leadership on the job satisfaction of employees. No support was found for the impact of the transactional and laissez-faire type of leadership on job satisfaction. Furthermore, the study found no support for the moderating effects of both emotional intelligence and collectivism. Thus, indicating that the relationship between the leadership style and job satisfaction are independent of the employee’s emotional intelligence and collectivistic tendencies warranting further research regarding these concepts.en_US
