Abstract
"Leaders have a lot of impact on the way employees are being motivated and engaged in an organization. The influence can be felt on the way employees deal with their tasks. Nowadays, more and more businesses are expanding overseas and providing their employees full autonomy to act on their own, as a result of the difficulty to control and take decisions while being away. Laissez faire leadership style offers employees freedom to work on their own tasks with minimum interferences. Employees are allowed to make decisions, share ideas, and communicate in order to have a successful performance. This thesis reports the main characteristics of Laissez faire leadership style that can be seen these days in modern workplaces. By analyzing questionnaires of different leaders in modern workplaces from different industries, the impact of laissez faire on employees' engagement and employees' motivation is being identified. The negative influence of laissez faire on employees' motivation and their engagement towards the business was being clarified as well as the significant relationship between motivation and engagement."
