PEAK Leadership Experience: Exploring the Absent: A review of laissez-faire leadership

Welcome to the PEAK Leadership Experience! This is a day-long event with so many fantastic presentations, and this is just one of them!

Session Description: Even with the laissez-faire leadership style emerging as a predominantly used leadership style, it is still understudied compared to its counterparts, such as transformative and transactional leadership styles. This session provides an integrative and comprehensive review of 945 articles on laissez-faire leadership spanning almost a century (1939 – 2020). It will review historical approaches used to measure laissez-faire leadership and provides a recommendation for new measures. It maps the theoretical and nomological network of laissez-faire leadership concerning its antecedents, outcomes, moderators, and mediators. It then concludes by providing recommendations to scholars and practitioners for future advancement on the topic.
