Description

Leadership and well-being are deeply intertwined, influencing individuals and organizational dynamics in profound ways. This study explores the bidirectional relationship between leadership styles, emotional intelligence, organizational culture, and well-being. By examining frameworks such as transformational, democratic, and ethical leadership, the research highlights the importance of adaptive, inclusive, and emotionally intelligent leadership in fostering employee satisfaction, mental health, and work-life balance. Additionally, the role of positive organizational culture and the evolving challenges of remote and hybrid leadership are analyzed. Findings suggest that leaders who emphasize empathy, ethics, and inclusivity create environments conducive to personal and collective growth. This comprehensive review provides actionable insights for leaders, policymakers, and organizations striving for effective leadership and enhanced employee well-being. 2025 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
