School systems face unprecedented local, state, and federal accountability for school performance and student achievement. School systems and schools themselves have begun to function like business organizations with management complexities and the requirement of bottom line results. School leadership is a critical component to good performance and student achievement. There is concern over whether or not school leaders have the proper management skills and leadership styles and approaches necessary to ensure effective operational performance of schools.

2016
Following expansive changes in the management of schools and the methods of organizing the teaching as well as the changes in the styles of leadership as the function of management, contemporary approaches to leadership: transactional, charismatic, transformational and interactive become more often the focus of research interest. Each of these theoretical approaches has far-reaching impacts and values not only in time but also in a certain context. However, in this paper we give priority to transformational leadership taking into consideration the claim that transformational leadership style is the most suitable for guiding the students within the school conditions. This type of claim has its stronghold in these three points: 1) the ethical dimension of transformational leadership, that is, the moral basis; 2) the validity of previous researches supported by evidence, and 3) evidences of the leaders' practice in the field of education.

Over the past four decades, the concept of leadership has become increasingly more complex and elaborate. Considerable debate has emerged over the most suitable model for educational leadership. Dominating the literature are two conceptual models: instructional leadership and transformational leadership. This paper will review the conceptual and empirical development of transformational leadership as it evolved through the work of James MacGregor Burns, Bernard M. Bass, Bruce J. Avolio, and Kenneth Leithwood. Moreover, the paper will discuss some of the conflicting opinions and diverging perspectives from many of the critics of transformational leadership. The author argues that transformational leadership will continue to evolve in order to adequately respond to the changing needs of schools in the context of educational accountability and school reform.
Transformational Leadership and its Dimensions: Contributions in Organizational Change among Schools
BSSS Journal of Management, XI(I), 2020
Transformational leadership incorporates the charismatic and affective portions of leadership and accelerates the change in the organization. Thus, this paper aims to discuss the model of transformational leadership in terms of its dimensions and its contributions in organizational change particularly in educational sectors by reviewing its literature. On the basis of literature, the idealized influences, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individual consideration collectively composed the transformational leadership. Due to this broad nature of composition, transformational leadership is useful in every kind of situation and it promotes the change process in the organization. Furthermore, the transformational leadership changes the organization and it reveals the high levels of performance and satisfaction. Thus, transformational leadership is a better approach to address the issues than other leadership models.
