Transformational leadership has been of great interest to many researchers in current era andadoptingtransformational leadership behaviour helps in the success of the organization[5]. Transformational leadership takes into account the development and strategic thinking[1], thus enables the organizational change process to happen morerapidly than other leadership styles. Krishnan[6] further explains that transformational leadership enables the creation of value system congruence between the leader and followers, thus facilitating condition where the leader and followers motivate each other to achieve the organizational goals. Doherty and Danylchuk[7] suggest that transformational leadership is of great significance because transformational leadership helps with the increase of satisfaction and commitment of staff through giving impetus and vision. However, some others cast doubt on its application. Due to the extreme importance of job satisfaction and transformational leadership, number of researches was conducted in this topic but there is a limited research available with respect to this topic in Malaysian context.Pihie, Sadeghi and Ellias[8] conducted a research in Malaysian research universities with respect to leadership styles and job satisfaction of academic staff. However, there is limited research conducted for administrative/clerical staff working in different colleges, departments or schools in Malaysian universities. The job satisfaction of administrative /clerical staff is important for uplift of Malaysian universities as they are supposed to attract international students, attain excellence in administrative procedures and plan to achieve high international rankings. Since job satisfaction correlates positively with organizational effectiveness[9], it becomes significantly important to study the job satisfaction level of the university administrative/clerical staff related to the transformational leadership style of concerned department/ school head.
