Abstract
Transformational leadership style is said to be attached with people-oriented
decision-making styles while task-oriented decision makers are not
transformation rather transactional. Current study is about the leaders and their
decision-making styles in ‘Local Government Bodies’ Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Data have been collected from the ‘Elected-Members’ and ‘GovernmentOfficers’ working in local government departments and district administration.
The results reveal that transformational leadership style is more linked with
people-oriented decision-making styles and task-oriented decision making is not
connected. There is positive relationship as well as strong prediction of criterion
variable (PDMS) with TRFLS. Likewise, TDMS is negatively related with
TRFLS in both correlations and regression analysis. Finally, qualification has
changed the response on TRFLS and PDMS while experience has affected
PDMS only in terms of difference of subjects’ opinion. Overall, the hypotheses
of study have been substantiated significantly.
