Transformational leadership, at its core, looks at each team member and employee and supports positive transformations from within to benefit the good of the whole. It sees each person as a leader-in-training and aims to inspire them to unlock their potential to benefit the company.

When done right, transformational leadership also makes the organization a better place to work, as employees reap the rewards of shared success and are constantly thinking about their essential contributions and growth potential.

Transformational leaders look at how people can grow and transform both themselves and the organization via shared yet individual priorities, and seeks alignment between the two.

Celebrating your people demonstrates that you value them and you acknowledge their part in making the victory possible. Simply put, your people need to feel valued and affirmed by their leader.

Transformational leadership believes that employees are the drivers of achieving overarching goals, whether those goals are organizational, developmental, personal, or anything in between.

If you are truly interested in having your company transform, if you genuinely want a high-performance organization with a broad cadre of people committed to the success of the enterprise, then you need to become conversant with the emotions, behaviors, and deep-seated attitudes that exist in your company.
