According to Northouse (1997), one of the best styles of leadership is transformational leadership that can
change and transform individuals. Transformational leadership occurs when one or more persons engage with others
in such a way that leaders and followers raise one another to higher levels of motivation and morality (Burns, 1978).
An important goal of a transformational leader is to develop followers beyond their potential (Lee, 2005). Hence,
transformational leaders try to develop and satisfy the higher-order needs of followers to gain their followers’
commitment to the organization (Rowden, 2000).
