Abstract: This study uses a systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis to summarise and synthesise the past, present, and future research of toxic leadership and its impact on employee behaviour. Seventeen documents are extracted from the Scopus database to conduct a systematic literature review. Further, it examines the cause-and-effect relationship between toxic leadership and employee behaviour. This study suggests that the literature on toxic leadership has five dimensions: authoritarian leadership, abusive supervision, narcissism, abusive supervision, and unpredictability. The emerging themes are psychological safety, toxic organisational environment, employee engagement and performance, and turnover intention. The variable reviewed in this research is leadership, toxic leadership, employee behaviour, and workplace behaviour published between 2020 and 2023. The future researcher directions are presented and discussed.
