Abstract: This study investigates the impact of different leadership styles—transformational, transactional, and situational—on employee adaptability during organizational changes in private television stations in Accra, Ghana. The objective is to identify which leadership style most effectively enhances employee adaptability. Utilizing a qualitative research design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and focus groups with 120 participants, including employees and leaders. The findings reveal that transformational leadership significantly boosts employee motivation and engagement, thereby improving adaptability, while transactional leadership is less effective for long-term adaptability. The study emphasizes the importance of leadership styles in managing change and offers practical recommendations for organizations. This research employs a qualitative design, utilizing semi-structured interviews and focus groups to gather data from 120 participants, including both employees and leaders from private television stations in Accra, Ghana. This approach allows for an in-depth exploration of perceptions regarding leadership styles and their influence on employee adaptability during organizational changes. The study finds that transformational leadership is the most effective style for enhancing employee adaptability, as it fosters motivation and engagement through a clear vision and supportive environment. While transactional leadership can maintain performance, it is less effective for long-term adaptability. Situational leadership shows potential by allowing leaders to adjust their approaches based on specific contexts and team readiness. The research is limited by its qualitative nature, which may restrict the generalizability of the findings. Additionally, the study focuses solely on private television stations in Accra, Ghana, which may not reflect the experiences of employees in other sectors or regions. Future research could expand the sample size and include quantitative methods for broader applicability. Organizations are encouraged to cultivate transformational leadership practices and adopt situational leadership strategies to enhance employee adaptability during periods of change. Promoting open communication and providing a supportive atmosphere can further improve employee engagement and responsiveness to organizational transformations. This research contributes original insights into the relationship between leadership styles and employee adaptability in the context of organizational change within the Ghanaian media sector. It highlights the critical role of leadership in shaping employee responses to change, offering valuable implications for both theory and practice.
Keywords: Employee adaptability, leadership styles, organizational change, transformational leadership, situational leadership, private television stations.
