Abstract
Many researches in the field of Behavioral Science show that Leadership is the motivator relating to the morale and productivity of employees. In spite of this, Herzberg's M-H theory is apt to ignore Leadershp as the motivator or he concludes that Leadership is the hygiene factor. This study is an attempt to determine whether Leadership is the motivator or the hygiene factor through the M-H theory. We used the Leadership of Performance-Mentenance style of J. Misumi as Leadership measurement method, and compared the satisfier with dissatisfier of PM-style and pm-style Leadership on the basis of perception of employees.
