Models Of Leadership: High Levels Of Communication

Student’s Name Institution Course Date MODELS OF LEADERSHIP: HIGH LEVELS OF COMMUNICATION PART I Transformational model is a leadership model that depends on high levels of communication in an organization. In this model, leaders are supposed to motivate their team members using effective communication and visibility (Sendjaya, 2015). In this model leaders also delegate duties and focuses on the motivation of their employees.
