The Evolution of Leadership - From Transactional to Transformational

Leadership is generally known as the act of leading a group of people or an organization. This very broad term encompasses a variety of styles and methods for guiding and directing a workforce. Many of which have been further defined by models based on decades of research. It’s no surprise there’s been an evolution of what leadership truly means as the models of today have been built on those models of yesterday.

In this previously recorded HR Community event we specifically address two prominent styles, Transactional vs. Transformational. First, we define the difference between them identifying their competencies and characters. We also discuss what is meant by “E-Leadership” and its relation to Transformational Leadership in today’s workplace. Finally, we review methods for HR Pros to help develop these competencies in themselves and their fellow senior management team members.
