This is a systematic review on authentic leadership that is related to the police organization work performance. An authentic leadership is some form of leadership that has been defined by self-awareness, transparency, and ethical behaviour; it has now become a significant form of leadership in the modern day agencies like the police. The paper is a synthesis of the available literature with a view of contextualizing the role of authentic leadership in the police officers and work performance, and the overall organizational effectiveness. The review determines the new important themes of team dynamics, trust-building, and employee engagement that can be specified as the attributes of authentic leadership by reviewing the empirical studies. It will also examine the major issues that influence this correlation by looking into the scope of the literature available. And also describes the difficulties police executives undergo in order to be their authentic selves in a high-stress setting. The findings indicate that primary leadership development may be helpful in the performance of work, and community relations. Subsequent paper provides a preview that may be beneficial to police organizations eager to introduce genuine leadership practices within the organization she that the organizational culture will enhance the performance of the subordinate and also the organization as a whole..
