Summary/Abstract: The article aims to evaluate the factor structure of the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire MLQ 5x (short). The empirical apparatus is built on the theoretical model for transformational leadership, operationalized by Bernard Bass. The latest version of the questionnaire MLQ 5x, consisting of 45 items is used for this research. The analysis is carried out by the alternative of the three-factor model (three factors are correlated). The results of the analysis confirm the content of the scales of the leadership styles (transformational, transactional and passive avoidant), the outcome of officers’ activities, as well as the staff of their components.
