understanding; clarify purposes; make behavior
congruent with beliefs, principles, or values; and bring
about changes that are permanent, self-perpetuating,
and momentum building.”

that creates valuable and positive change in followers.
A transformative leader focuses on transforming others

encouraging and harmonious and to look out for the
organization as a whole. In this leadership, the leader
enhances the motivation, morale and performance
of the follower, group or team.
