A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF METACOGNITIONAL IMPROVEMENT ON THE TREATMENT AND PREVENTION OF TOXIC LEADERSHIP
Arş. Gör. Onur KAZANCI
ABSTRACT

Leaders are of greatest importance in the future of their organizations and community for which they lead. 
However,it must be kept in mind that leaders are not mechanical and immaculate beings but of very human 
nature and thus may not always respond in reasonable ways. In literature of management, debates have 
long been made on the fact that leaders are greatly likely to lead their organizations and followers to 
undesirable consequences or on whether those who do so could righteously be called leaders or not. There is 
not a definitive consensus on this issue. On the other hand, it must not be ignored that leaders may mislead 
their organizations and followers to inextricably difficult situations, which is phenomenon frequently 
encountered both in management and political history. İndividuals who drag their own organizations and 
followers to irreversible problems are often seen to lead them and accepted as leaders. The aim of the present 
study is to discuss toxic leadeship which has been recently debated as one of negative leaderships and its 
related dimensions as well as potential beneficial impacts of leaders' increased cognitive awareness on 
discovering toxic positions or eliminating current toxicities.
