There is no finishing line in the race for excellence. Transformational leadership is the kind of
leadership which is the process of engaging with others, to create a connection
that increases motivation and morality. A
very important part that could allow for Transformational Leadership is the
emotional engagement. The simplest way
to look at Transformational Leadership is the transferring of vision into reality.
Setting an example is not the main means of influencing
others, it’s the only means. Being an example is the only way you can influence
other people. Nothing great is ever
achieved without enthusiasm.
Transformational is an ongoing function. Transformational Leadership is that which
facilitate a redefinition of people’s mission and vision, a renewal of their
commitment and the restructuring of their systems. It’s a relationship of mutual simulation, and
elevation, that converts followers into leaders, and many convert leaders into
moral agents. Hence, Transformational
Leadership must be grounded in moral foundations.
There is no leadership without follow-ship. Setting an example is the only means of
influencing them. Influence involves an
exceptional form of influence that moves followers to accomplish more than what
is usually expected. The core elements
in leadership is concerned with emotions, liaise, ethics, standards, and
long-term goals.
There’s a wide range of leadership influence where followers
and leaders are bound together in the transformational process. You need to be able to work together and to
facilitate the transformation.
