An Examination of the Implications of Transformative Leadership on the Perceptions Towards the Workplace

The purpose of this research is to assess the role of transformative leadership on perceptions of faculty members towards the workplace. Workplace perceptions refer to how individuals feel, believe, and behave in various aspects of their work, environment, and colleagues. This study seeks to differentiate the perceptions of faculty members working in private and government institutions/colleges in the Ghaziabad District, Uttar Pradesh. Satisfaction at the workplace and commitment towards the workplace are the two variables considered for the study. This study is based on survey data from 160 faculty members using the Likert Scale. A chi-square test was used to test the effect of transformational leadership on workplace perceptions. The correlation coefficient is used to explore the association between perceptions of faculty members. Responses were collected through subjective sampling and analysis. In line with prior research, transformative leadership is found to have a significant impact on satisfaction and commitment toward the workplace. It is revealed in this study, that transformative leadership (TL) has a significant effect on the perception of the workplace of faculty members working in both Private and Government Institutes. The study also examined the correlation between the faculty members of private and government institutes and presented an adverse association between the two. The results cannot be generalized to other parts of the state/country and elsewhere as they are limited to a specific region only due to different policies and mindsets of the employees that differ from place to place.
