Does a bad leadership style affect the growth of a country and cause economic melt down or bring hardship to people.

The style of leadership isn't  the major problem but the decisions made by the leadership that makes the difference, Some countries practice autocracy, democracy, monarchy, e.t.c and are doing fine while there are others that practice it and are in a worse economic condition. If the leaders are competent and have sound economic implementations, of course it would reflect in the living conditions of the people, but if the leaders are corrupt, the country would remain stagnant and people would suffer greatly.

I understand your point, but every society has a style of leadership that is best for them. There are some countries where democracy does not suit the people, where autocracy and monarchy are better, and vice versa. In such a society, the Leader may be competent to do his job, but things wont be going perfectly for them. The role of the leader in having a good society is 70%, while the rest lies in the style of leadership.

A leadership that's not good does more than affecting economy because it makes the economy looks like it will never revived. When the leadership has put there focus in taking loans on behalf of the country all the time, isn't the economy that would be affected for it?, it would be hard for something to emerge from the mins of bad leaders in a country because they will never want anything to leave from benefiting them into coming to grow the economy. Poor economy is the fundamental work of bad leadership but however you will only see a different and improving economy when the leaders are not bad.

There's no way a country can grow as expected when the leaders are corrupt or bad, they are not going to yield the required result expected of them, things like this are what aggravated to how we see people fight against the government because they are right has been deprived of them and the leaders and not doing anything to help with the situation, henceforth we should know the kind of leaders be put in power and make our vote to count so that we can held them accountable for any challenges faced by the country as a result of their incapacitation.

Of course. Economy are not static or build to remain the same , it is being controlled by by leadership and if the leadership is bad it addect the economy so badly and id the leadership is good it improve the economy too. Handling of economy you must be prepared and you must be intelligent to work with policies that would make the economy work.  Good thinkers and who can implement can improve the economy of a country. If you come across a country where the economy going down so badly it means the person kn charge is not doing a good work to make it improve.

Yes in all ramification. The name itself just answered your caption "bad leadership"  bad leadership is a curse to any nation because the economy will strangle the citizens of that very country. Bad leadership brings bad policies and bad policies brings hardship to the people. Some crisis in many countries is caused by bad leadership. Bad leadership definitely causes economic melt down and can lead to economic recession

Yes of course, bad leadership style can aftect the growth of a country and it can equally cause economic bridge down of a country, and high rate of crimes will increase there and there, which the majority of the society will be suffering it within the regime of the bad leadership style, so if I'm not mistaken or misleading anyone here, there is people that is still suffering from a bad leadership style of their counties in the world today, where cost of living is very high and the society are finding it very difficult to meet up the cost of living of that country and those that doesn't have the patience enough to keep pushing as they can end up giving up themselves by committing crimes that will lead them to prison. What should not happen to a country is bad government because they control everything that comes in and goes out of the country.

Yes the leaders of a country will determine how far the country will grow, infrastureally, economically and otherwise. The leadership of a country gives the direction that the country will go, if the leaders formulate good plans that will develop the country in all sectors, the country will move forward. Likewise if the leaders don't prioritise the growth of the country by coming up with good blueprints that will foster development, the country will never progress, and the people will suffer.

This is not even supposed to be a question? of course, a bad leadership style has negative effects in the growth of a country because there is a system that a government can employ and it will ruin the growth and development of that country in toto. Ever wondered why a new government enters into office and everything changes from bad to worse? let's take my country as a case study; about a decade ago, my country was experiencing rapid economic growth, and we became the fastest growing economy in Africa but since the economic team and the government that achieved that left office and a new government came in, that is how the economy has been dwindling till now that it has gotten worst. So, in a nutshell, they lack good economic system because they have been operating with a bad leadership style.
