Any company, organization, or any other union of people cannot exist without a good leader able to organize separate individuals into a united team which is successful at work, poses new goals and shows a progressive development.

Having analyzed a variety of scientific studies related to the influence a leader may cause on employee performance and development, it is possible to assume that leadership behaviors especially transformational leadership style may enhance subordinate’s task performance as well as their organizational citizenship behaviors (OCB).
