“…In addition, because we were interested in how TL affects the proposed outcomes, OC and PC, as opposed to their emergence at the group level, we examined it at the individual level of analysis. This is in line with studies conducted in a similar cultural context investigating the influence of leadership styles on teacher commitment at the individual teacher level of analysis (Berkovich and Hassan, 2023; Bogler and Nir, 2015; Bogler and Somech, 2004; Bogler, 2005; Somech and Bogler, 2002). Therefore, the analysis was performed at the individual level.…”

“…Transformational leadership (TL), which refers to the leader moving the follower beyond immediate self-interests, is recognized as an effective leadership style where personnel is more professional, hierarchies are flatter, and teamwork is key to success. TL is associated with positive school outcomes (Berkovich and Hassan, 2023). TL includes four sub-dimensions (Bass, 1985(Bass, , 1998: (1) idealized influence, (2) inspirational motivation (3) individualized consideration (4) intellectual stimulation.…”

PurposeThe present study aimed to investigate whether the sub-dimensions of transformational leadership are differently influenced by middle-leaders’ personality traits from the Big Five typology, namely, extraversion, conscientiousness, openness to experience, agreeableness, and neuroticism, and whether the sub-dimensions of transformational leadership influence teachers' professional and organizational commitment differentially.Design/methodology/approachData were collected from two sources: 114 middle-leaders and 282 teachers randomly chosen from elementary schools in Israel. Hierarchical regression analyses and structural equation modelling were used to test the research hypotheses.FindingsFirst, the findings indicated that the teachers perceived their middle-leaders as transformational leaders without distinguishing between the sub-dimensions. Second, transformational leadership was positively correlated to teachers' professional and organizational commitment. Finally, positive relationships were found between the middle-leaders personality traits of agreeableness and openness to experience and teachers’ commitment. The study findings point to two paths to facilitate teachers' professional and organizational commitment, either through the middle-leaders transformational leadership or their personality.Originality/valueAlthough recent research has shown that leaders' personal traits are critical components in leading a team effectively and promoting employee behaviors, few studies in the educational context have focused on the differential impact of the Big Five typology on middle-leaders’ tendency toward the sub-dimensions of transformational leadership (TL) and its implications for teachers' commitment. By integrating research from both educational and non-educational literature, the goal of the present study, then, is to address these important yet relatively unstudied issues.

This article provides insights into the use of transformational leadership in private K12 schools in China, its impact on school development and the challenges it faces. The article emphasises the importance of transformational leadership, which has positively impacted the field of education by stimulating intrinsic motivation in followers and promoting innovation and improvement. In particular, Leithwood's model of transformational leadership has been shown to be particularly effective in educational reform. Using a literature review approach, the study explores the specific impact of transformational leadership on private K12 schools and the main challenges these schools encounter in implementing transformational leadership by analysing existing research data and theories. The article first provides a detailed introduction to the concept and characteristics of transformational leadership, and then analyses the current situation of private K12 schools in China, including their efforts and achievements in improving the quality of teaching and learning, and promoting the all-round development of students. The main findings suggest that despite the challenges, the positive impact of transformational leadership on private K12 schools is significant, and it helps schools adapt to the demands of educational reforms and contributes to the overall development and progress of the school. The article also suggests that to realise the full potential of transformational leadership in China's private K12 education environment, further research is needed to address the existing challenges and propose strategies to adapt to the local culture and education system. Finally, the article suggests directions for future research, including the development of a theoretical framework for transformational leadership that is more appropriate for the Chinese private K12 school environment and the development of strategies to address specific challenges. These studies will help optimise the application of transformational leadership in Chinese private K12 schools and provide theoretical and practical support for continuous improvement and development in the field of education. Through these efforts, the research aims to provide guidance on leadership in Chinese private K12 schools and to contribute to the improvement of educational quality and the modernisation of school management.

“…Os líderes transformacionais fornecem apoio socioemocional aos seguidores e aumentam o apelo emocional das atividades organizacionais, desenvolvendo assim o compromisso afetivo e o apego dos seus colaboradores à organização (Berkovich & Hassan, 2023). Bass (1990) apresenta as principais características dos líderes transacionais e transformacionais, conforme Quadro 1.…”

Objetivo da pesquisa: Analisar a e-liderança no setor público, verificando a relação dos estilos de transformacional e transacional com variáveis importantes como a qualidade da comunicação, o comprometimento e o desempenho dos servidores públicos. Enquadramento teórico: A pesquisa utiliza como base teórica estudos sobre a e-liderança e os estilos transformacional e transacional, destacando os elementos determinantes desse fenômeno das equipes virtuais, especialmente a qualidade da comunicação e sua possível relação com comprometimento e desempenho. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma pesquisa quantitativa, desenvolvida por meio de levantamento com 158 servidores públicos de 3 instituições diferentes, das esferas federal e estadual: Tribunal de Contas da União (TCU), Agência Nacional de Transporte Aquaviário (Antaq) e Tribunal de Contas do Estado de Santa Catarina (TCE/SC). A análise empregou técnicas de estatística descritiva e modelagem de equações estruturais. Para medir os construtos da pesquisa, foram adotadas escalas utilizadas em outros estudos, cujos resultados demonstraram sua qualidade psicométrica. Resultados: Verificou-se que a qualidade da comunicação se relaciona positivamente com o comprometimento e exerce influência positiva na forma como as equipes enxergam a e-liderança, o que favorece o estilo de e-liderança transformacional. Os dois estilos de liderança exercem influência positiva no comprometimento. A relação entre comprometimento e desempenho não se mostrou significativa. Somente o estilo transformacional influenciou positivamente o desempenho dos servidores que trabalham em equipes virtuais. Originalidade: Este estudo se destaca por explorar uma temática inovadora relacionada à liderança de equipes virtuais no setor público e amplia a discussão sobre os fatores que podem colaborar com a missão dos e-líderes das instituições públicas. Contribuições teóricas e práticas: A presente pesquisa oferece contribuições para o campo da gestão pública pois fornece evidências empíricas que podem auxiliar os gestores públicos a delinear estratégias gerenciais e de educação corporativa, com enfoque na seleção e desenvolvimento de líderes mais aptos a apresentar resultados relevantes para a sociedade. Palavras-chave: E-liderança. Setor público. Qualidade da comunicação. Comprometimento. Desempenho.
