To a leader, whose most important job is to inspire his or her subordinates, and being the motivator who leads subordinates towards a certain direction to reach their expected goal, this is what most important. Additionally, it is worthwhile knowing whether the leadership style of the chiefs of police stations can be a predictor of job performance, and to understand what the possibility and results of the predictability are. It may also worthwhile to see whether we may use the leadership style as a research variable to predict the level of job performance and job satisfaction. The survey subjects of this study were mainly based on the police officers who served in the police stations of Changhua County Police Bureau. The purpose of this study is to understand the relationship among the leadership styles of the chiefs of police stations, and the job performance, and job satisfaction of police officers through relevant literature and questionnaires. We hope that the result of this study may serve as a reference for the chiefs of police stations in improving their leadership and management, and also as a reference for the basic-level police officers, in the hopes of applying the study results in the phases of supplementing staff members and educational training for leaders of police authorities, and so as to bring the human resource of basic cadre members within the police organization into full play.
