Does Leadership Style Affect the Academic Performance of Undergraduate Business Students? An Empirical Study

This study intends to analyzes the various types of leadership styles (transactional, transformational, and passive-avoidant) used while collaboratively working in teams to generate a business plan for a course project assignment. The influence of leadership styles are believed to influence the dynamics of the teaming environment as students work together on a classroom project assignment. Leadership constructs and its dimensionality was examined using the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire short form available from Mind Garden, Inc. a standard instrument for assessing transformational and transactional leadership behavior (Avolio & Bass, 2004) to study student responses regarding leadership behavior on teaming assignments and the correlations, if any, between leaders’ behaviors and the team dynamics of conflict and cohesion.
