Role Of Leadership in Employee Retention
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study explores the relationship between leadership styles and employee retention using secondary data from journals, company reports, and research studies. The main aim is to understand how different types of leadership influence employees' decision to stay or leave an organisation. It also suggests ways in which leadership can be improved to increase employee satisfaction and loyalty. The research follows a descriptive and analytical method, where earlier studies have been reviewed and analysed to find patterns and key ideas. Findings show that leadership styles like transformational, democratic, and servant leadership have a positive effect on employee retention. When leaders communicate well, show respect, and support their team, employees feel more motivated and committed to the organisation. On the other hand, poor leadership often leads to low morale and high employee turnover. This study is useful for business leaders, HR managers, and organisations who want to reduce employee loss and build a strong, loyal team.
