Reflection
Over the last three decades, the transformational leadership has emerged as being one of the
eminent paradigms to be able to recognize the effectiveness of the leadership. The
transformational philosophy continues to be depending on the notion that numerous leader
behavior might enhance the followers’ values, needs, aspirations, priorities and motivate all of
them to be able to execute far beyond the call of the duty (Wang, Courtright, & Colbert, 2011).
One significant construct that captures the performance of the followers that beyond the call of
the duty is an organizational environment which support on the performance of the task. In the
current complex and fast paced organizations, I have learnt that the employees extra role
behavior which will go beyond the limited list of the responsibilities they have become important
for the success of the organization. The organizational citizen behavior is associated to the
satisfaction of the customers, low turnover, with the high in the role of the performance. When it
comes to the leader follower relationship, the OCB could be suited best to reflect the follower
performance consequences (Wang, Courtright, & Colbert, 2011). Engaging in or even
withholding voluntary extra role behavior is a more flexible and saver means in repaying leader
treatment as compared to the task performance.
I have learnt that the transformational leadership is related positively to the performance across
the numerous criterion kinds in addition to levels of the analysis. The transformational leadership
generally has a more powerful relationship with regards to the individual level contextual
performance compared to the personal level task performance (Wang, Courtright & Colbert,
2011). I have also found out that the transformational leadership continues to be positively
associated with the team and organization level performance.
