This analysis focuses on the leadership style in the company PT. BPR in dealing with the Covid-19 outbreak by examining the level of alertness, responsiveness, cohesiveness, and coordination between organizations. The results of the study show that leaders at PT BPR use an empathetic leadership style which is one of the choices for leaders to carry out leadership functions during the covid-19 pandemic. One of Rensis Likert's theories is 4 Systems or 4 Leadership communication styles. A leader must have the attitude of a Consultative Leader, meaning that with the current covid-19 pandemic, the leader should have little trust in his subordinates, subordinates need information, ideas or opinions through consultation.
