An example of a manager exhibiting transformational leadership is Kathy Savitt, founder and chief executive officer of Lockerz. The company operates an e-commerce website that uses social networking tools to engage teens in shopping online. Teens who visit the site can help themselves and their friends earn points toward discounts on the merchandise by clicking images of the items and viewing various kinds of promotional content. The company grew out of Savitt’s passion for serving this young demographic group. Savitt has a vision not only for the company’s place as an Internet marketer but also for the kind of company it should be for its employees. Her vision is of a business in which the employees respect one another and are fearless about innovation. In hiring, Savitt seeks people who not only are highly intelligent but also listen attentively, demonstrate respect for others, and can laugh at themselves. She models her vision of the workplace by addressing problems and setbacks frankly and with a focus on solutions, saying it takes courage to work through failure. Savitt expresses confidence that by bringing in people who have talent plus a drive to contribute, she can create a company culture that avoids cynical practices she has experienced at other companies in the past. For example, she has seen business meetings that play a kind of stump-the-chump game, in which if one employee tries to answer a question or offer an idea, others pile on with criticism. Savitt believes she can avoid that by communicating the values of courage, innovation, and results.
1) What kind of behaviour does Savitt exhibit in her actions?
Transformational leader or a transactional leader?
What effects does it have on her team?
2) What is the difference between transformational leadership and transactional leadership
3) What are different types of powers? Explain each with an example
