Abstract

The trend in leadership style in the 21st century appears to be
transforming to a type more in line with employee-orientation. What
appears to be emerging is an ‘interactive’ / ‘female’ leadership type.
This style or type of leadership integrates aspects of what in the past
have been called participation, transformation and situation-
contingent models and is characterized by trust, commitment,
motivation, job satisfaction and teamwork. The study was carried out
among 246 local managers working under Australian expatriates
employed in organisations in Papua New Guinea (PNG).Results
suggest that interactive leadership is pursued by Australian
expatriates in PNG and that relationships between Australian
expatriate managers and employees are on a strong level, with trust
and commitment demonstrated by subordinate.
