Every organisation has leaders who are ultimately responsible for the decision-making and successful operations that translate into profits, employee well-being and, ultimately, the success of the organisation’s goals and objectives. However, several individuals spend most of their working career under direct or indirect leadership, where leadership are responsible for the development over a valuable period of their career. With the rise and fall of companies such as Enron, the impact and perception of employees of the leadership within organisations need to be assessed. This research has been done to further understand the impact of leadership behaviour on employees within the working environment and whether leadership's actions impact the employees' perception of authentic leadership. The study assessed the perception of employees on their leadership’s authenticity, acountability and organisational culture. It was a quantitative study using a survey sent out to respondents via email and WhatsApp; the total target was 200 on the high end, of which the total number of respondents was 166. This study will using literature on authentic leadership and employee perception assess the impact with reference to theory pagibs2024 2024-04-16T09:30:37Z 2024-04-16T09:30:37Z 2024-04-17 2024-04-17 Mini Dissertation * A2024 http://hdl.handle.net/2263/95583 en © 2023 University of Pretoria.
