Changes are a constant, to which the public sector must adapt. Its operation aims to maximize the performance in satisfying the needs of customers, who expect friendly and satisfied employees in the public sector. Employees spend a lot of their life in their workplace, therefore it is very importnant for them what kind of work enviorment they have and how they feel during work. Only happy and motivated employees can achieve the goals set by the public sector.
The master's thesis is the influence of leadership on the employee engagement to selected administrative units. The theoretical part is based on in depth study of professional and scientific literature and sources of the World Wide Web. The survey was carried out with a quantitative approach using the survey method. The significance of the results was analyzed using the descriptor and the comperative methods and statistical methods in the verification of hypotheses.
Conclusions from my own research, as well as domestic and international research are based on the assumption that the direct influence of the individual leader and his management style is greatest. Through the survey, it was found that in selected administrative units most leaders use participatory style and, that this style suits to only 19 out of 56 employees, they are committed and fully involved in the work process. Other employees need to pay more attention to increase their commitment.
The operating of public sector depends on the budget, legislation and regulations. The rewards, development and education of employees are limited as well. The main task of leaders is to encourage the engagement of employees. It is very important to keep track of the level of employee engagement and use this information to see the current condition of engagement, which is a great indicator for the future.
