Transformational leaders have great influence on their followers. In fact, that is one of behaviors of transformational leadership. According to our textbook, “Transformational leaders influence, inspire, move, and literally transform followers to achieve organizational goals beyond their self-interests (Burns, 1978), thus initiating and bringing about positive change,” (Weiss, 2011, p.51). There are four behaviors of transformational leadership. They are idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration. Idealized influence is the charisma that can inspire followers, (Weiss, 2011). They will want to be like their leader filled with charm and will likely follow him/her because of that charm. Inspirational motivation is exactly what it sounds like. The leader will be able to inspire their followers toward completion of goals. Intellectual stimulation excites followers by pushing them to think outside of the norm. According to our textbook, “Intellectual stimulation can include such leadership behaviors and practices as brainstorming, challenging the beliefs and norms of the group to innovate and be creative, promoting critical thinking and problem solving to make the organization better, and persuading and proposing new and even controversial ideas to followers without fear of punishment or ridicule,” ( Weiss, 2011, p.54). A leader with intellectual stimulation does not fear change, but rather embraces and encourages it.
