Abstract
This research study shows the relationship of leadership styles
with the job satisfaction of employees working in the private
banking sector of Pakistan and also depicts which leadership style
leaders have adopted most. A questionnaire with five points likert
scale was used to collect data on different dimensions of
leadership styles and employees’ job satisfaction from 230
participants working in five selected private banks of four
districts of the province of Punjab, Pakistan. The results showed
that there is a significant relationship between transactional
leadership style and employees’ job satisfaction and this

compared to transformational leadership style. The research
results are very important for the higher management of targeted
banks in terms of to increase employees’ job satisfaction they can
train their leading staff in branches to adopt transactional
