Abstract
This paper shows the results of the analysis of the leadership styles of managers and their staffs’ performance, so as the relationship between them from the perspectives of the subordinate staffs. A Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ-5X) and a demographic form were used to collect the data from a random sample of 400 Gaza´s hospitals’ staffs. The analysis shows that the managers styles can be classifies as corresponding to transformational and transactional styles. The results also indicate the significant relation between the transformational and transactional leadership styles and the hospitals’ staffs’ behavior. Further, the estimation of a regression analysis offers evidence of the power that transformational and transactional leadership styles have in predicting the behavior of hospitals’ staff. An implication is that hospitals’ managers in Gaza Strip should take advantage of the styles of leadership in enhancing the level of their staff efforts when introducing new services.
