The present study aims to identify and analyze the impact of different leadership styles on the effectiveness and cohesion of teams within an organizational environment by determining the most effective managerial approaches for achieving high performance and sustainable team relation ships. The tasks set to achieve this objective are: to systematize the main theoretical approaches to leadership and distinguish the key leadership styles, to examine the relationship between leadership style and team effectiveness, and to analyze the impact of leadership style on the level of team cohe sion. Leadership style is defined as the manner in which a leader interacts with employees to achieve organizational goals. Classical theory distinguishes three main styles—authoritarian, democratic, and laissez-faire—which differ in the degree of employee participation in decision-making. These are complemented by Likert’s model, emphasizing the role of trust, communication, and engage ment. Particular attention is given to authentic leadership as a contemporary approach based on self-awareness, ethics, and transparency. It contributes to building trust, motivation, and sustainable relationships within the team. The models of George, as well as Avolio and Gardner, outline key characteristics such as internal moral perspective, open communication, and self-reflection. Effec tive leadership is context-dependent and requires adaptability according to team characteristics and tasks. A successful team is built on a clearly defined common goal and interdependence among its members. Informal leadership also enhances trust, engagement, and team cohesion. In conclusion, effective leadership combines professional competencies with human values to ensure long-term organizational effectiveness.
