    RESEARCH ON TOXIC LEADERSHIP IN RELATION TO LEADERSHIP STYLES
    (2024) Haidin, Oleksandr
    The purpose of this study is to comprehensively assess the landscape of toxic leadership both holistically and within specific industries. Additionally, it aims to scrutinize the interplay between established leadership styles and toxic leadership, thereby identifying requisite adaptations and practices susceptible to diminishing relevance in the dynamic business environment. The study's data were derived from survey results obtained from professionals across diverse industries. This research embarks on an extensive exploration of toxic leadership through a three-chapter framework. Chapter 1 conducts a comprehensive literature review using bibliometric and content analyses. Chapter 2 delineates empirical methodologies, providing detailed descriptions of scales such as Schmidt and MLQ. Chapter 3 unveils the outcomes of a study on leadership styles across industries and the relationships between toxic, transactional, and transformational leadership. Notably, the investigation reveals that Management by Exception exhibits associations with toxic traits, hinting at a potential dark side. This observation, coupled with the negative correlation between authoritarian traits and transformational leadership, underscores the significance of leaders striking a balance between decision-making capabilities and collaborative, open, and supportive practices. The study offers valuable insights into the evolving preferences of employees, emphasizing collaboration, understanding toxic dynamics, and fostering healthier workplace environments, particularly in the context of a shift toward servant leadership.
