Different types of leadership that have been positively related to happiness at work were identified, such as transformational, altruistic, servant, authentic, and influential leadership. Based on the analysis of the available literature, it is possible to conclude about the causal relationship between both approaches, especially in those that leadership emphasize the worker and its performance.
