Empirical studies including Geert Hofstede, Edgar Schein and Bernard Bass were used to identify similarities between a leadership style and contribution they have on organizational culture.

When these strong principles, behaviours and beliefs are communicated and developed, a strong organizational culture will emerge. The core values can be visuals like a dress code, or the subordinates beliefs and expectations, which have to be communicated and aligned by the leader. These results are backed up with a recent study of leadership in a hospital, were wellcommunicated core values and support increased job satisfaction and overall performance. A leader has to implement a companies objectives and values to build a corporate culture, depending on the cultural background the company operates in, it is important to choose the appropriate leadership style to bring across these values. A study identified that individualists, according to Hofstedes model, generated more ideas with a transactional leader, emphasising the fact that leaders should not change a corporate culture but only develop and strengthen it upon all subordinates.
