This research project outline investigates the impact of leadership on employee performance within the Australian context, addressing issues such as a lower growth rate, decreased employee sustainability, reduced consumer loyalty, and diminished business productivity. The research aims to assess and evaluate how leadership influences employee performance, focusing on objectives like determining the impact of leadership on employee motivation and retention, examining the significance of transformational and transactional leadership styles, and developing strategies for effective leadership incorporation. The methodology involves both primary (qualitative and quantitative data collection through interviews and surveys) and secondary research (literature review), with data analysis using Microsoft Excel and presentation in bar charts. The expected outcome includes the development of effective strategies to enhance employee performance in Australia, ensuring sample confidentiality throughout the two-month analysis period.
