Styl vedení a jeho dopad na pracovní spokojenost a stres zaměstnanců

This bachelor's thesis examines the correlation between leadership styles and both the job satisfaction and stress levels of employees. The topic is highly relevant in the current professional landscape, as an inappropriate leadership style can contribute to increased psychological strain and, in extreme cases, burnout, which negatively affects the performance of teams and the entire organization. The theoretical part defines key concepts — occupational stress, burnout syndrome, job satisfaction, and leadership styles — and analyses their interrelationships. The empirical part utilizes a qualitative approach through semi-structured interviews conducted with a sample of eight employees from various organizations. It explores how they perceive their superiors' leadership styles and how this approach is reflected in their satisfaction and stress levels. The aim of the thesis is to identify the relationships between leadership style, job satisfaction, and employee stress levels, and to formulate recommendations for preventing occupational stress and supporting a healthy work climate.
