Abstract:

This research examines the relationship between leadership styles, communicator’s competence, and job satisfaction of employees in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Results will show the importance of communication in leadership as an essential element in the leadership process. Questionnaires for primary data collection were adopted from previous literature on leadership, competence, and job satisfaction. There are 201 valid responses collected using convenience sampling method. Data testing was done using regression analysis and the results showed negative and no significant relationship between leadership styles, communicator’s competence, and job satisfaction. However, a positive and significant relationship existed between leadership styles and communicator’s competence. The findings guide managers into the effects of their behavior at work towards their subordinates, where communicator’s competence shows positive and significant relationship between both task oriented and relationship-oriented leadership styles.

Keywords – Leadership, leadership styles, communicator’s competence, job satisfaction.
