“…Transactional leadership maintains the status quo (Locke, 1999), is task and relationship oriented (Tuohy, 1999), and "involves an exchange process between leaders and followers, whereby followers reap immediate, tangible rewards for carrying out the leader's orders" (Locke, 1999, p. 5). By contrast, transformational leadership is described as leadership that seeks to change the status quo (Locke, 1999), involves leaders motivating followers to improve present attitudes and assumptions (Friedman, 2004;Yukl, 1994), and is principally concerned with notions of purpose and vision (Bass, 1985;Bass & Avolio, 1994;DuBrin & Daglish, 2003). Charismatic leadership is based on the admiration and respect shown to a leader by subordinate coworkers, and is grounded in trust, honesty, and credibility (Friedman, 2004).…”
