TRANSFORMATIVE LEADERSHIP STRATEGIES Stuart Wasilowski Fall 2012 Walden University A6: Course Project—Leadership Analysis: Part I of III

A point of reference Transactional Leadership Transactional leadership occurs as an function of an exchange of valued things. It is understood by both parties that there is a power relationship between them (Stewart, 2006). A6: Course Project—Leadership Analysis: Part I of III

Transformational Leadership Defined Transformational leader looks for potential motives in followers. The leader seeks to address higher level needs, and engages the full person of the follower (Stewart, 2006 p. 4). The result of this leadership is a mutual relationship. The result converts followers to leaders and leaders into moral agents (Stewart, 2006). A6: Course Project—Leadership Analysis: Part I of III

Leadership values and assumptions Values are the foundation and the reflection of the end point. A supportive environment where people can grow. Promote harmony with nature and sustainability. Create communities of care and shared responsibility. Create an environment of dignity, respect, and support. (Astin, A. W., & Astin, H. S.,2000) A6: Course Project—Leadership Analysis: Part I of III

Individual qualities Self-knowledge Authenticity Commitment Empathy Competence (Astin, A. W., & Astin, H. S.,2000) A6: Course Project—Leadership Analysis: Part I of III

Transformational Leader as Change Agent Patience - find the right pace for change. Persistence – many opportunities exist and a leader must be persistent to succeed. Process – developing and working through a process will ensure forward progress. (Bolman & Gallos, 2011) A6: Course Project—Leadership Analysis: Part I of III

Change Leadership is about change and disruption. Measuring the extent to which your organization is able to absorb change is critical. It is critically important that as change is implemented that respect is paid for the losses people sustain as part of the change.
