Employees are important for organizational success and are the most important resource of the company. It is important that their work is recognized and appreciated by leaders, which positively influences their satisfaction and motivation. Leadership is a managerial function that has the ability to influence employees performing tasks. In order to achieve it, a leader is needed - in a small company it is a manager who is in charge of virtually all aspects of business and also employee satisfaction. The management style can have a significant impact on employee satisfaction, and satisfied employees are a prerequisite for successful business. Determining the dominant leadership style and employee satisfaction in the organization can determine if it is good for the organization, i.e. if it can achieve organizational goals and employee satisfaction. The aim of the paper is to explore the management style of a manager in a selected small business, to examine employee satisfaction with the management style of leadership, and to make recommendations for changes or improvements in the management style of a manager in a selected small business. The survey will be conducted by questionnaires and the descriptive statistics method will be used for the display.
