The study aims to explore the interplay between leadership styles (transformational, transactional and laissez-faire) and faculty job satisfaction (intrinsic, extrinsic and overall) in a public university of Pakistan. The study is a cross-sectional survey and is analytic in nature. The whole faculty, 287 faculty members, of the chosen university was defined as the sample. The findings highlight that there is a significant relationship between the group of independent variables (transformational, transactional and laissez-faire leadership styles) and the faculty’s intrinsic, extrinsic and overall job satisfaction. However, the group of independent variables has slightly stronger relationship with extrinsic job satisfaction as compared to overall job satisfaction, and the relationship of independent variables with intrinsic job satisfaction is relatively less strong. The transformational leadership style, in relation to the other two independent variables (transactional and laissez-faire leadership styles), has a strong positive and statistically significant effect on faculty’s intrinsic, extrinsic and overall job satisfaction. Whereas, the laissez-faire leadership style, relatively, has weak positive and statistically insignificant effect on faculty’s intrinsic, extrinsic and overall job satisfaction. The transactional leadership style, on the other hand, has comparatively weak negative and statistically insignificant effect on faculty’s intrinsic, extrinsic and overall job satisfaction.
