Toxic Leadership and it's Impact on Followers and the Command at the United States Naval Academy

Abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to determine if the toxic leadership model proposed by Padilla, Hogan, and Kaiser in 2007 is supported by data collected at the United States Naval Academy in 2018. Specifically, that when a subordinate ranks their leadership low due to toxic leader traits, they will have lower organizational commitment indicating a more conducive environment, and trust for their peers will be lower indicating that there are susceptible followers who are either conforming to the toxic leadership or colluding with the toxic leadership.
