The purpose of this study was to investigate the relations between leader`s personality and leadership styles. Data were collected from 255 managers across 8 organizations. MBTI Form K with 20 multi-subscales was used to measure leader`s personality and MLQ(Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire) was used to measure leadership styles. The results of the research were as follows. First, thinking(T) and judging(J) types of managers, who are logical decision maker, were most prevalent in this study, consistent with the results of previous studies. Second, extraversion(E) and judging(J) types had significantly positive relations with transformational leadership. Also, a contingent reward factor of transactional leadership was strongly related with these two personality types. Finally, the limitations and implications of this study and directions for further research were discussed.
