Transformational leaders promote critical thinking and
problem-solving while treating people with respect in both their words and
deeds. This leadership style prioritizes both organizational and individual
goals, and it places a high value on effective communication. Charm is another
quality that transformative leaders possess. Transformational leaders exhibit
adaptability, purpose, and vision (2020).
