Leadership Practices in Corporate Sector: A Study of Sui Southern Gas Company, Karachi

Abstract

Leadership styles practiced around the world vary situation to situation and organization to organization. There is no fixed style of leadership that is preferred across the board. Therefore, it is not possible to say that any one leadership style should be effective for all people and in all situations. However some are preferred more than others. In this study we selected three styles of leadership on the basis of assumption and understanding of Sui Southern Gas Company Limited. Therefore this is the limitation of the study. In the survey that we conducted we found that although there is a leadership preference by the respondents but in practice they do not observe what they preach. This is a contradiction of their own statements. We conclude that among the three leadership styles that we took for the survey none of them is practiced as such in the company.
