Abstract
The human resources of every organization play fundamental roles that are supported by both internal and external factors. Various leadership styles and their influences regarding the personnel's contentment with their positions lead to any organization's success or failure. The existing literature of leadership requires empirical verification about which leadership styles are more linked to job satisfaction within one sector where various leading posts are available like universities in developing economies. Thereby, this study aims to substantiate the relationship between different leadership styles (transformational, ethical, servant and transactional) and job satisfaction. The 106 teachers of higher education institutes of Balochistan filled a questionnaire through convenience sample design. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to test the hypotheses. Findings show that ethical leadership is highly correlated with job satisfaction leads to transactional leadership. The servant and transformational leadership was positive related with job satisfaction having low level of beta. It shows that those leaders who utilize ethical, strict disciplines, transparency and authority contributes more in enhancing job satisfaction in Balochistan. The higher education institutes require to inculcate ethical and administrative features among leaders through training programs.
