A Perspective on
Leadership
The Principal Chapter 1
Assumptions of
Transactional Leadership
Leadership is a
function of
organizational
position.
Leadership is
goal-centered
and goals are
driven by
organizational
needs.
Leadership is
bound within the
context of the
situation (tasks,
responsibilities,
and presented
problems)
Leadership is
dedicated to goal
achievement.
Copyright Allyn & Bacon
Therefore Transactional
Leaders (i.e. Managers):
That leadership is
always context
bound
* It occurs in a
social community
* It is the result of
human interaction
and
negotiations
That it involves
mutual negotiations
and shared
leadership roles
* It cannot occur
without
followership
* Many times the two
are interchangeable
Foster (1989)
Power.
Transformational leadership is
accomplished when leaders delegate
and surrender power over people and
events in order to achieve power over
accomplishments and goal achievement
Authentic accountability, the authority
to match responsibility, is granted.
- Sergiovanni (1989)
Copyright Allyn & Bacon
Authorship without
power is isolating and
splintering. Power
without authorship can
be dysfunctional and
oppressive.
- Bolman & Deal, Leading With Soul,
1995, p. 108

Collegiality
Members join

support while still
developing selfmanagement and
self-leadership skills.
Rewarding Work
Members see their
work as meaningful
and are accountable.
Transformational
Leadership
Such leadership occurs when one or
more persons engage with others in
such a way that leaders and followers
raise one another to high levels of
motivation and morality. Their
purposes, which might have started out
as separate but related become fused.

Cooperation
There is no enduring cooperation
without the creation of faith, the
catalyst by which human effort is
enabled
Cooperation, not leadership, is the
creative process; but leadership is
the indispensable fulminator of its
forces.

The Artistry of
Leadership
Leadership is an art, a performing art.
And in the art of leadership, the artists
instrument is the self. Ultimately,
leadership development is a process of
self-discovery and development.
Leadership artistry is an awareness of and
faith in ones own values, beliefs, and
abilities which form the basis for
mobilizing others toward higher purposes
