Abstract
Telecommunication sector in India is growing rapidly, and with it are growing the unprecedented challenges. The world’s second largest telecom market is in India. Leadership definitely plays an important role, when we talk about this sector.

With emerging of Jio Telecommunications, this sector has become highly competitive, forcing the major players to build strategies to gain the loyalty of the consumers, by giving those consumers benefits beyond the profits. Leadership really becomes imperative in telecommunication sector and its impact over job attitude of employees. The present study emphasizes on the three different variables of the job attitudes of the telecom sector employees, job satisfaction, job commitment and job turnover intentions and the overall job attitude, which is implicated by positive job attitude and negative job attitude.
