NOTE: THIS ARTICLE WAS PUBLISHED WITH THE INFORMING SCIENCE INSTITUTE. Aim/Purpose................................................................................................................................................................................. The main objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between leadership style, performance, and organizational trust. In addition, it will look into the relationship between four leadership styles and employee performance moderating by organizational trust in the case of Shahid Hashemi Nejad Gas Refinery. Background................................................................................................................................................................................. The leadership is one of the key important functions in the organization. The leader is the one who can control factors and practices in the organization such as: individual rights, working conditions, and policies of the organization, assess progress and assign responsibility. In fact, how the leaders controls these factors and motivate the staff is and index of the extent to which the leader has been effective. For this reason, it is expected that the person who is the leader of an organization does necessarily have an understanding of how to perform all the duties of a manager. However, there has not been a complete research on the effectiveness of organizational trust in the relationship between leadership style (based on Likert’s theory) and the performance of employees in government agencies. Therefore, the main research question is; whether organizational trust has a moderating role in the relationship between leadership style and employee performance. Methodology................................................................................................................................................................................. The present study is applied research.The measurement instruments used in this research is a survey questionnaire. The Validity and reliability of the questionnaires are based on expert opinions. The statistical population of this research is all employees of Shahid Hashemi Nejad Gas Refinery using stratified random sampling. A total of 196 employees were selected as the sample of this study. The structural equation modeling (SEM) was perfumed in order to answer the research questions. Contribution................................................................................................................................................................................. This paper aims to focus on the sanctions, limitations and seriousness of the situation and prioritize steps to use the right leadership style in organizations. Findings...................................................................................................................................................................................... In general, the findings of the research indicate the absence of evidence of a moderating role played by organizational trust (horizontal, vertical, institutional) in the relationship between leadership style and employee performance. Recommendations for Practitioners.......................................................................................................................................... This paper subtly suggests a certain course of action and serious recognition of flaws and deficiencies in the system that are obvious and emerges and which are critical and must be addressed. Recommendation for Researchers............................................................................................................................................. It is suggested that this type of research needs to be conducted in private-ownership organizations; that one measures and analyzes the impact of leadership styles on employee commitment and the effectiveness of management participation. Considering the level of performance of staff in relation to leadership styles, it is suggested that other factors that affect or interact with employee performance in the organization are investigated. For example, investigate factors affecting the establishment of authoritarian rule. Impact on Society.................................................................................................................................................................... All public and private companies can increase their employees’ performance by using and improving their leadership style. Future Research....................................................................................................................................................................... More research needs to be done in private organizations with respect to the impact of leadership styles on employee commitment; and with respect to the effectiveness of management participation versus authoritarian rule. There are other factors affecting or interacting with the performance of employees in the organization that should be investigated. For Example, to investigate the factors affecting the establishment of institutional trust in an organization.

The Impact

Scholarly works have shown that one of the outstanding factors of organizational commitment has been leadership, which relates to the style adopted by the leader and the impact it has on the commitment level of employees for performance. The aim of this research was to explore the effect of leadership styles on organizational commitment. Transformational, transactional, and laissez faire styles of leadership were examined. A cross-sectional survey of 151 employees at a public sector agency in Abuja, Nigeria, was conducted. The research employed a quantitative approach to the collection of data using questionnaire administration. All questionnaire items were assessed using the five-point Likert scale. Inferential statistics in research was carried out using multiple regression technique to substantiate the survey findings. Based on the Great man theory, Contingency theory and Behavioural theory, the study confirms that transformational, transactional and laissez faire leadership styles and organizational commitment were statistically associated. In terms of contribution to the model, the explanatory variables jointly contributed 68.2 percent in explaining organizational commitment. On individual contribution, transformational leadership style contributed the most, 58.6 percent to the model while transactional leadership style contributed 11.8 percent to the model and finally laissez-faire leadership style contributed 11.2 percent to organizational commitment in the study context. The study therefore recommends that AEA should use continuous transformational leadership style practices to sustain high employee commitment and organizational effectiveness. Also, AEA should apply a bit of both transactional and laissez faire leadership styles from time to time depending on the situation of things at the workplace as there is no particular leadership style that is one-size fit all but depends on situation at hand. One realistic implication that could be learned from this study is that in order to minimize employee turnover, managers need to implement affirmative strategies that will benefit the establishment.
