There are three main types of leadership.
Transactional leadership only benefits oneself who makes the decisions. The lack of trust is a prevalent trait in such leadership. It is similar to dictatorship where the population is controlled and “trouble makers” who do not follow societal norms will be ousted out of society.
Transformational leadership refers to leadership where everyone is a leader and views are listened to. A high level of trust amongst the people is prevalent. Although so, there is still a person in charge who makes the final decision. Transformational leadership also includes many forms of leadership to be applied at different times.
Transcendent leadership is leadership where everyone’s views are accepted an considered and applied as well. It is based on group agreements and consent and there are no followers. However, associates are present and they make everyone feel that they are equally important in making decisions and a common status to maintain the stability in society.
