Transformational leadership focuses on aligning the interests of the organization and its members. Unlike transactional leaders who reward followers based on performance, transformational leaders inspire, stimulate intellectually, and show individual consideration. Women leaders tend to exhibit more transformational qualities than men. Research suggests that a six-factor model best describes transformational/transactional leadership, but the need for fewer factors is still debated. Transformational leadership is found to be more effective than transactional leadership in various settings like business, military, and education.
