Abstract
Research in the past mainly focused on the positive aspect of leadership. However, research on the negative aspects of leadership is faster. The current research was conducted with the aim of explaining the consequences of negative leadership style phenomenologically, emphasizing its two prominent aspects, i.e. leadership as abusive supervision, and libertarian leadership, in Farhangian University administrators based on Inarsen's model (2007). This research was a qualitative research with an interpretive phenomenological design. For this purpose, 14 experts and professors of management and educational leadership and organizational behavior management, at the level of Farhangian University, were selected as a sample using the criteria-based purposeful sampling method and based on the principle of theoretical saturation, and the data were collected through interviews. Semi-structured was collected with these people. After transcribing, the text of the interviews was analyzed with Dickelman's approach and thematic analysis method in MAXQDA 2018 software. Some data were also collected based on the review of the results of previous studies in this field. The findings showed that both types of leadership styles have significant negative consequences, including: psychosis, ineffectiveness, higher turnover intention, increased leave, job dissatisfaction, leader narcissism, poor performance, unfairness, low effectiveness, They have a hostile attitude towards organizations, followers and leaders. And also, both the leadership in the sense of incorrect supervision and the leadership in the laissez-faire leadership style are very different in terms of the leader's actual behaviors.
