ABSTRACT
The study examined the relationship between leadership styles and performance of
Kyambogo University. The objectives of the study were: to establish how Autocratic
leadership style influences the performance of Kyambogo University; to examine how
Democratic leadership style influences the performance of Kyambogo University; and, to
find out how Bureaucratic leadership style influences the performance of Kyambogo
University. A cross-sectional design was adopted using both quantitative and qualitative
methods. The study targeted 164 respondents but 134 returned the survey questions,
indicating a response rate of 82%. Simple random and stratified sampling techniques
were used to select the respondents to respond to questionnaires and interviews. Data
analysis involved frequencies, percentages and relational statistics such as correlations
and the coefficient of determination. Findings revealed a significant positive relationship
(r=0.417, p=0.05) between Autocratic leadership and the performance of Kyambogo
University; a significant positive relationship (r=0.493, p=0.05) between Democratic
leadership and the performance of Kyambogo University; and no significant relationship
