Similarly the results given in 3 rd statement like 0%, 0%, 0%, 10% and 10%. The results stated
in 4 th statement are 0%, 0%, 0%, 8%, and 12%. While the out come of the 5 th statement were
0%, 0%, 0%, 6% and 14% respectively.
A chi-square value for the above table is 13.957 with p-value 0.007 was recorded to test the
association between various categories of responses regarding the following statements and
that of responses, that is, very poor, poor, some problem, good and very good. It is evident
that p-value is less than 5% level of probability (i.e. p-value=0.000 < α-value=0.05) indicating
that the null hypothesis of no association between the two attributes regarding the stated
hypothesis is rejected i.e. there is no relationship between the leadership and the employees
performance. It is therefore, concluded that there is the relationship between the leadership
and the employees performance that result in efficiency of employees.

in 4 th statement are 0%, 0%, 2%, 6%, and 12%. While the out come of the 5 th statement were
0%, 0%, 0%, 12% and 8% respectively.
A chi-square value for the above table is 28.085 with p-value 0.000 was recorded to test the
association between various categories of responses regarding the following statements and
that of responses, that is, very poor, poor, some problem, good and very good. It is evident
that p-value is less than 5% level of probability (i.e. p-value=0.000 < α-value=0.05) indicating
that the null hypothesis of no association between the two attributes regarding the stated
hypothesis is rejected i.e. there is no relationship between the leadership and the employees
performance. It is therefore, concluded that there is the relationship between the leadership
and the employees performance. This tendency reflects that effective leadership facilitates,
