  Although many researches have been conducted on leadership styles and university students
  are participants in exploratory social science research quite frequently, fewer examples can be
  found on the application of the Full Range Leadership model among the youth. In this article,
  the authors examine preferred leadership styles among Hungarian students, and map their
  connections with managerial and entrepreneurial inclination. The online questionnaire used inthe research was completed by university students studying economics, technology and social
  studies in the capital and beyond. The questionnaire was completed by 335 university students.
  The results are exploratory, and they seem to modify the existing typologies. Four distinct
  leadership styles could be observed within the target group, embodying the transformative,
  supportive, defensive, and laissez-faire leadership types. Based on multivariate analysis one may
  suppose that among students leadership willingness is positively connected to transformative
  leadership, while entrepreneurial inclination to the transformative and supportive styles.
