THE REVIEW OF THE EFFECTS OF LEADERSHIP BEHAVIOR IN LOGISTICS COMPANIES
Keywords:
ASEAN, Leadership Theory, Leadership Styles, Logistics, TransformationalAbstract
The study aimed to understand better the leadership behavior of managers in logistics and supply chain management companies. Previous studies had primarily focused on a Western context, neglecting organizations in Southeast Asia. Moreover, the importance of the logistics sector in the ASEAN region was rising due to better intraregional integration and interconnectivity. Understanding the leadership behavior of logistics organizations could help to improve leadership behavior in the logistics sector in the ASEAN region: thus, helping to facilitate the above integration process more effectively. Within the literature review, different leadership style theories, such as transformational leadership, trait leadership, situational leadership, transactional leadership, charismatic leadership, and complexity leadership, were reviewed. The most useful leadership theory to be applied in logistics organizations was transformational leadership theory. This leadership theory can be used in the context of the logistics industry, which requires a high degree of flexibility from leaders. At the same time, the transformational leadership theory contributes to a better understanding of the relations between leaders and followers – and how these relations contribute to organizational success. The transformational leadership theory provided a useful framework to understand how logistics companies achieved economic success.
