Abstract: Abstract The aim of this research is to describe the approach to leadership competences in various methodologies. Identifying the similarities and differences between the approach to leadership in different methodologies, as well as highlighting the competences of the leader that are most important in each of them. The data for the research was obtained from the documents of selected, the most recognized associations and project management organizations, which include: Project Management Institute (PMI), International Project Management Association (IPMA), Scrum.org, and The Agile Alliance. The desk research method was used in the work, which enabled the compilation, analysis, and processing of the obtained data, and then formulating conclusions based on them. The findings show that all analyzed methodologies present their own set of competencies of an ideal leader, but communication competences related to building relationships and cooperation with team members turned out to be the most important ones. The comparison of selected methodologies made it possible to show that they are very similar, but not identical. Each methodology adds a unique element to leadership pattern which distinguishes it from the others. All the conclusions obtained constitute useful hints in achieving the goals set by the project managers.
