Abstract

Leadership is a key piece within the organizational gear, since according to authors and studies the emotional and psychosocial effects, which radiate in the human resource, are decisive to the point of strengthening productivity and with it business success. If it starts from the general definition of leadership, as an attitude towards the management of personnel in an organization, this can be considered an art, thus, achieving the category of leader is not an easy task, it is required to develop the ability to perform in the face of teamwork, vital for the community to work for the company. Also, when it is analyzed that an organization is a group of human beings that interact, involving behaviors and emotions, it is necessary for the leader to play a decisive role in their interpersonal relationships with their subordinates as a guarantee of motivation and commitment to improve productivity, and thus, achieve the proposed organizational goals.

Therefore, this article investigated the correlations established between leadership and the effects on the psychosocial field of human resources, to strengthen productivity. For this, it was necessary to do a literature review regarding the concept of leadership, the effectiveness of some of the styles such as transformational, transactional and the absence of leadership, in addition to productivity and its correlation with the psychosocial field.

These approaches lead to the hypothesis that good leadership in the face of human resources and the management of production factors, including the organizational climate, influences performance and productivity.
