This study examined the correlation between employee turnover and leadership skills and styles in the Jordanian drugstores sector. The purpose of this study was to discover the relationship between employee turnover and leadership skills and styles, the extent to which ineffective leadership skills contribute to employee turnover, as well as the extent to which the leadership style that is practiced influences employee turnover and makes recommendations for future actions. The study utilized a quantitative nonexperimental descriptive research design, and data was collected through surveys from employees in the drugstores sector. The sample consisted of 153 salespeople and medical representatives, and statistical analyses were conducted using Pearson correlation, Spearman’s rank correlation, and regression analysis. The findings revealed no statistically significant correlation between employee turnover and leadership skills and styles. Specifically, transformational leadership style did not correlate significantly with employee turnover. Similarly, transactional leadership style also did not show a significant correlation with turnover. The study suggested that salespeople and medical representatives in the drugstores sector may not need to prioritize adopting a specific leadership style to reduce turnover and enhance organizational performance. The study concluded with recommended future studies to explore the impact of different leadership training programs on reducing employee turnover in the drugstores sector. In addition, studies should be conducted to explore the impact of other factors, such as job satisfaction and organizational culture, on employee turnover. Overall, the findings of this study contribute to the ongoing discourse on employee turnover and leadership in the drugstores’ sector and provide insights for organizations to improve their practices and reduce employee turnover.
