Transactional leadership, while quite different from transformational leadership, has its place in leadership practice. As you continue your application-based SLP journey in this course, conduct research to find a team or organization that primarily uses transactional leadership. Use the research you conduct to determine your best judgment regarding the organization or team’s tribal stage.
SLP Assignment Expectations
Once again, acting as an outside consultant, create a 2- to 3-page report (not counting the title page or reference section) for the organization’s leadership that addresses the following:
- A brief overview of the way transactional leadership is employed within the organization.
- A brief explanation of the impact of the way transactional leadership is employed on the tribal stage of the organization.
- A clear, research-backed recommendation addressing which changes should be made (based on the selected tribal stage).
- An action plan for implementing those changes.
