Summary/Abstract: Studies on leadership, as a social phenomenon abound, their evolution is largely progressive one, from relatively simple theories centered on certain characteristics of the leader, to complex theories that try to incorporate as many explanatory factors of the phenomenon as possible. This article will try to present the connection between leadership and organizational culture. It can be shown that organizational culture helps clarify many phenomena that occur in organizations and that culture can act as brake or as an incentive for the organizational effectiveness, as well as the fact that leadership plays a leading role in the formation and development of organizational culture.
