Different leadership styles in the works include transformational, ethical, laissez-faire, transactional, and paternalistic. Therefore, the author aims to explain the connection between the different leadership perspective of diverse leadership styles and managerial culture. This study supports my research because it is focusing on how organizational culture influences the leadership style that a leader can use and thus relevant.

The authors draw their study on strategic leadership theory by developing a supporting theoretical model to navigate the effect of senior management conducts on business alignment within the setting of Enterprise Systems assimilation. The organizational culture is considered an essential mediator in the exploration model of contingency theory. Based on the empirical outcomes thus propose that inspirational motivation and idealized influence leadership conducts are critical motivators of strategic alignment, further affecting organizational system assimilation. In addition, implementing a flexible-oriented culture definitely moderates the association between strategic leadership behavior and alignment, while the relationships are negatively affected by control-oriented culture. This is particularly important because the leaders I will be focusing on in my research as they will need to ensure that their organizations will undergo successful change either now or in the future.
