Findings: The results obtained from this study reveal that transformational leadership has a significant influence on performance of DTSACCOs which is in line with transformational leadership theory that transformational leaders are able to articulate organizational goals and objectives in a bid to achieve the set objectives in organizations. At the same note, Organizational Culture was found to have a significant moderating role on the relationship between transformational leadership and organizational performance.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study recommends that policy makers grow the overall sustainability, competitiveness, attractiveness and performance of the deposit taking SACCOs industry by developing legislative framework that strengthens the culture of SACCOs for efficient and effectiveness in their performance.
