THE IMPACT OF TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP ON JOB SATISFACTION AND INNOVATIVE WORK BEHAVIOUR: A LITERATURE REVIEW

Transformational leadership, Job satisfaction, Innovative work behaviour, psychological empowerment, Systematic reviewAbstract
This analysis examines the relationship between transformational leadership and two important organizational outcomes: job satisfaction among employees and innovative work behavior. Although prior research has consistently demonstrated the beneficial effects of transformational leadership in motivating employees, enhancing job satisfaction, and fostering creativity, the literature remains fragmented and often descriptive rather than integrative. To address this gap, a systematic search and narrative synthesis of 105 studies across major databases was conducted. Though results differ depending on national context, industry, and organizational culture, the analysis shows that transformational leadership is often correlated to more innovative behaviors and increased job satisfaction. Notably, several studies highlight mediating mechanisms (e.g., psychological empowerment) and moderating conditions (e.g., autonomy, learning climate) that influence these relationships. This review contributes by critically consolidating the evidence, identifying inconsistencies, and highlighting research gaps. The findings underscore the importance of conducting cross-cultural and longitudinal research and provide leaders with practical guidance for promoting organizational innovation and enhancing employee well-being.
