dc.description.abstractThis paper investigates the role of leadership style used by construction managers and how the style used relates to the construction manager's perception of the success of their projects. The range of leadership styles is investigated and the three most relevant and appropriate styles for construction managers are adopted for this research. These styles are transformational, transactional and laissez-faire.
dc.description.abstractThis small-scale study developed a questionnaire applying attitude and appreciation statements regarding the perceptions of construction managers about their leadership style and its relation to the performance of their most recently completed project
dc.description.abstractThe results show that construction managers display a mix of all three leadership styles although the greatest use is made of the transformational style. The linkage between leadership style and project success is less clear.
