Assignment: Discussion-Transformational Leadership
Change is considered by many as the new normal. Effective change management must be part of an organization's DNA. An emerging leadership style called the transformational style has been shown to be effective in this environment, especially in leading change. This form of leadership goes beyond traditional forms of leadership which relied mainly on centralized control. It emphasizes more open communication, collaboration, and participation by employees.

o From either personal experience, or through observation, provide examples of transformation leadership.
o Which of the other leaders who you have seen come close to being effective transformational leaders? How could they have changed to be transformational leaders? Justify your answer with appropriate examples.
