Furthermore, an increasingly culturally diverse workforce challenges twenty-first century leaders to manage employees in ways to maximize desired organizational outcomes. This study investigates the relationships between cultural value variations, transformational leadership, and work-related outcomes. Managers at all levels of the organization will benefit from insights into what motivates workers to higher levels of performance.
