Annotation:Methods. The results were obtained through the use of the following methods: theorization - when formulating research hypotheses and describing the results of their practical compliance with behavioral and situational theories of leadership, questionnaires – when assessing the attitude of respondents both to their own ability to be a leader and to important leadership qualities from their point of view; analysis – when determining the correspondence of the obtained results of the questionnaire of respondents to the formulated scientific hypothesis; synthesis – when summarizing research results and evaluating the impact of leadership on group dynamics within the organization. Results. The hypothesis about the readiness of people to take on responsibility and the role of a leader was confirmed. It was found that the leader's communication skills and public speaking skills are just as important for his followers as his willingness to demonstrate their personal behavior of commitment to the practical achievement of common goals. The hypothesis about the determining role of common values for the recognition of the leader by his followers was not confirmed. The assumption that the most important characteristic of a leader is the vision of the future was not confirmed. Novelty. In the course of study, it was found that the majority of respondents have a democratic style of leadership, namely a consultative one. It was determined that the leader's perception is largely determined by external manifestations of behavior, in particular, oratory skills, the ability to listen to people, a confident appearance and other behavioral patterns that demonstrate the leader's willingness to serve the common interests of the group. Practical value. Since leaders to the greatest extent determine group dynamics within organizations, influencing the formation, development and decline of formal and informal groups, it is necessary to take into account the risks of followers’ losing the ability to think critically and objectively evaluate leaders’ actions.
