“Challenging the Status Quo: A Mixed Bag Trait of Transformational Leadership.”

Abstract

Guided by the theoretical framework, the PESTEL analysis, this article surveyed the risks associated with the inclination of transformational leaders to challenge the existing status quo. Through the external desk review as the methodology, the paper has cited empirical pieces of evidence that established the mixed beg of challenging the status. It argued that not every existing status quo must be challenged by transformational leaders. Doing so could contribute to the demise of the leader. As the way forward, the paper proffered an alternative approach to challenging the existing status quo that would preserve and act as the prophylaxis of the demise of transformational leaders.
