2 Approaches

 

Transactional and Transformational leadership are different. Different in their approaches. Almost opposites in application.

  • Transactional leaders focus on the task. Focus on the process of getting work done
  • Transformational leaders focus on people. Focus on engaging & inspiring

There is a need for both. A need to fix processes to remove barriers to getting work accomplished. A need to coach people to become the person they want to be.

"Failure is an event, not a person."
-Zig Ziglar

Fix processes so the "event" serves the people interacting with it really well.

Coach people because they're not things to use for the enterprise, they're people to be loved!
