Abstract
This article will explore transformational Leadership from a project management perspective. Transformational Leadership is a leadership style that focuses on motivating people to reach a common goal. This leadership style actively encourages individuals to take responsibility for their work while striving for personal growth. Unlike traditional leadership models that rely on power dynamics, transformational leadership in project management places the project manager in a role model position. Through this article, we will examine the benefits of adopting a transformational leadership approach and how it can lead to successful projects.
