I just made a pass at cleaning up and wikifying this article. More work needs to be done. This article has suffered from major neglect. LarryQ 13:27, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
Source #11 (Tafvenin) needs to be corrected - it points to a doctoral thesis, not a journal article, but I don't know how to cite that properly. --159.77.137.78 (talk) 11:58, 27 February 2016 (UTC)
I have reverted the addition of the "Transformational Leadership Council" to this article as a non notable private members' club. All it has in common with this article is two words of its title. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 22:42, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
What this appears to be is training people to lead in housekeeping in organizations and corporations; sort of like the special troops in Hitlers Army that wore the black uniforms with red colors and a white nazi symbol. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.244.99.175 (talk) 20:55, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
Bass is the first who introduced transformational leadership in the organizational context. Burns first introduced the concept in 1978 in the context of political leaders. The book "Bass, B. M. (1985). Leadership and Performance Beyond Expectations. New York: Free Press." is a reliable source. Bass also published more on transformational leadership. There might be a link between personality traits and leadership, but the section on Psychology should be deleated. Avolio created a questionnair how to test for transformational leadership. Avolio, B. J., Bass, B. M., & Jung, D. I. (1995). Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire technical report. Redwood City, CA: Mind Garden. I hope this information is helpful to improve the article. --Verena Köster (talk)
There are several points in the article which talk about "transformatial leadership". Is that a spelling mistake intended to be "transformational leadership", or is it a synonymous term? A Google search for "transformatial" doesn't yield anything particularly helpful. - Elusive Pete (talk) 13:08, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
While I doubt anyone is going to argue with me, want to explain the change from "style" to "approach". Transformational leadership is not a superficial fashion, fad, or manner of communicating. It is not a "style". Instead it is a fundamentally different way of leading that only works if the leader believes in what he or she is doing. It is an "approach".

It seems like this page hasn't been maintained in a while, and doesn't do much to explain the concept of Transformation Leadership beyond the origins of the term. Also, the references provided could be reorganized into a single section instead of being scattered all over like they are now. Bhongwiki (talk) 18:53, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
The discussion of how the Big Five personality traits correlate with transformational leadership is interesting but not as useful as it would be if the presented information were compared with the same traits and transactional leadership. Does anyone have something useful to say about this? Wyvern (talk) 00:42, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

What's up with the in-line citation at the very beginning?--Megaman en m (talk) 00:12, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
