Abstract : UNIRAZAK Library

This study examines the relationship between Laissez-Faire leadership and the well- being and job satisfaction of healthcare workers in private practices within the Klang   Valley. Laissez-Faire leadership, characterised by minimal supervision and high autonomy, is often viewed as an unconventional match in any industry, where active leadership is typically required. The primary objective of this research is to evaluate whether this passive leadership style influences the overall well-being and job satisfaction of healthcare workers, considering the high-pressure nature of the   healthcare environment A quantitative approach was administered, using a semi- structured online survey distributed to healthcare professionals, including doctors,   nurses, allied health professionals, and administrative staff. The study analyzed responses using descriptive statistics, correlation, and regression analysis to determine the strength and significance of the relationship between Laissez-Faire leadership and the two dependent variables: well-being and job satisfaction. The findings revealed a complex influence of Laissez-Faire leadership on healthcare professionals. While autonomy provided by this leadership style contributed to job satisfaction, particularly among highly experienced professionals, the lack of direct guidance and support led to increased stress and reduced well-being, particularly among less experienced staff. The study indicates that the absence of active leadership can have a detrimental impact on the well-being of workers, despite the potential benefits of autonomy. This underscores the necessity of balanced leadership approaches in the healthcare sector. This research fills a critical gap in the literature by examining Laissez-Faire leadership in private healthcare settings, a largely unexplored area. The results offer valuable insights for healthcare managers and policymakers, emphasizing the necessity of tailored leadership strategies to enhance both employee satisfaction and patient care outcomes.
