Resumo: Technological changes, on the one hand, bring economic benefits to organizations such as increased productivity and efficiency, on the other hand, can produce human and social problems with possible consequences to the mental health of the worker. Internet addiction is also a problem associated with information and communication technologies, as well as the stress resulting from the excessive use of information and communication technology known as techno-stress. This study analyzed the effects of Internet leadership and addiction on techno-stress. The research is based on a quantitative research approach with a single cross-section. The data were analyzed through 379 questionnaires answered by information technology professional’s users. For the hypothesis tests of the study, the analysis of structural equations was performed and satisfactory measures were presented for the constructs investigated and the proposed research model. The results indicate that leadership styles influence positively the techno-stress and internet addiction can act as moderator of these relationships. The study shows that laissez-faire leadership is the style of leadership that most influences techno-stress, when compared to transformational and transactional leadership. It can be argued, therefore, that the moderation effects of Internet addiction are different in the forms studied from the relationships of leadership styles to techno-stress.
