Discussion Questions
•How does a transformational leader’s use of the charisma element make a difference in
the performance of team or organization members?

•Considering that some observers have questioned transformational leadership’s nature as


a fundamentally ethical approach to leadership, what are the distinctive behaviours that
support the view that authentic transformational leadership constitutes ethical leadership?

•What situations or circumstances might arise that could put a transformational team leader
into a dilemma where he or she has to choose between achieving team effectiveness and

organizational goals, on the one hand, or promoting the welfare and development of team
members, on the other hand? Would the team leader’s decision to emphasize one choice
over the other necessarily make the leader’s actions any more or less moral or ethical?

Discussion Questions
•What practical implications or effects emerge for followers from the
reality that a given ­organizational leader can be either displaying
an ethical, ‘authentic’ transformational leadership or a less ethical,
‘pseudo’ form of transformational leadership? Would it ever be
possible for an authentically transformational leader to display a
leadership ‘dark side’?

•What does it mean that in a transformational leadership approach


a leader and a follower tend to engage in mutual change and
development? What might an
