Abstract: Today's managers need to possess strong leadership skills in order to combat the dynamic organisational demands. This study provides a unique insight into how two popular leadership styles - transformational leadership and servant leadership, interact when faced with employee burnout. A moderated mediation model is formulated with transformational leadership moderating the indirect effect of servant leadership on employee burnout through organisational justice. This model is empirically tested and proved in an information technology firm. The results support the model and provide new avenues for leadership research by providing a unique insight on how different leadership styles can be effective together. The practical implications of this study and directions for future research are discussed.
