摘要
The present study is part of Ph.D. research (Leadership Behavior and Employee Job Satisfaction: A Study of Path Goal Theory in Telecom Sector). The study was designed to test the path-goal theory of leadership in Pakistan telecom (mobile) industry. The relationship between leadership behaviors (directive, supportive, participative and achievement-oriented) of middle managers and job satisfaction of subordinates was investigated. The analysis suggests that Leader behavior affects satisfaction directly and performance indirectly. Further subordinate satisfaction has a direct effect on subordinate's performance and performance is influenced by the type of task demand. Somehow, there was no difference between male and female respondents regarding any dependent measure. Similarly, the moderating variables influence preference for a particular type of leadership behavior and leader behavior has an impact on subordinate satisfaction.
