Exploring the Impact of Employee Voice on Leadership Effectiveness in Banking Sector

Abstract

The contemporary landscape of workplace dynamics has seen a change in perspective, with associations perceiving the vital job of representatives in fostering development, efficiency and generally hierarchical achievement. A symbiotic relationship that fosters a participative and transparent organisational environment is established when leadership emerges as a crucial factor in fostering and facilitating employee voice. This article combines existing exploration to give a complete comprehension of how the elements of representative voice and transformational leadership add to the strengthening of the labour force. The present study takes into consideration the 462 employees working in the top 26 banking institutions in India. The results show that the promotive voice and the prohibitive voice are positively related to the transformational leadership style that energise open correspondence as well as develop a feeling of mutual perspective and joint effort. The relationship between employee voice and transformational leadership is symbiotic. Transformational leaders create a conducive environment for employee voice by fostering trust, openness and a shared vision. In turn, employee voice enhances the effectiveness of transformational leadership by providing valuable insights, diverse perspectives and a ground-level understanding of organisational dynamics. This research survey gives an exhaustive outline of the present status of information on engaging the labour force through the investigation of representative voice and leadership dynamics. Our study concludes with practical strategies for integrating employee voice and transformational leadership in organisational settings. Active listening, empowerment, recognition and communication transparency emerge as critical elements for cultivating a harmonious relationship between employee voice and transformational leadership. By embracing these strategies, organisations can harness the collective intelligence of their workforce, adapt to change and achieve sustained growth. This research contributes to the evolving discourse on organisational dynamics, providing insights for leaders, human resource professionals and scholars interested in optimising workplace cultures for long-term success.
