Abstract
This research aims to assess the effect of leadership styles on the performance of the workforce in the nonprofit organization in Nepal. The accomplishment of employees’ responsibilities depends on the leadership approaches adopted by leaders that help to establish a foundation for stimulation. It reflects that leadership doctrine congruent with organizational conditions, employees, and stakeholders enhances the overall performance of the workforce. However, earlier evidence manifests contradictory consequences and exhibits that there is no conclusive statement on the role of leadership in boosting workforces’ performance. Therefore, this research aims to address the existing research gap. This research utilized 371 useful primary data and analysed using Smart PLS version 4.1.1.4. The research outcomes show a favourable and significant effect of autocratic, democratic, and laissez-faire leadership on the performance of the workforce. Therefore, this advocates that organizations adopting diverse and appropriate leadership approaches significantly contribute to cultivate employee performance.
