Being perceived as a transformational leader by others, would be a goal. To an observation regarding the theory itself "concerned with emotions, values, ethics, standards, and long term goals"; …is it more or less often the case we embrace leaders who appear concerned with emotions, values, ethics, standards, and long term goals or is it the case we simply would like to work for someone who exhibited these characteristics but maintained a "stiff upper lip" all the time; …someone who has remained the "classic archetype" of leadership? How has the latter observation: "assessing followers’ motives, satisfying their needs, and treating them as full human begins” been articulated practically speaking, in your experience? Has this been more or less common over the course of your experience? What benefits or challenges have either a presence or lack of transformational leaders in your experiential profile created?
