dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the basic similarities and differences between transformational and servant leadership theories. Scholarly work on both transformational and servant leadership was intensively reviewed. After studying the relevant literature of both the paradigm we arrived at somewhat hybrid form of leadership having the characteristics of transformational and servant leadership. They both are highly influential, visionary, trustworthy, respectable, believe on delegation of responsibilities and empowerment of employees, serve as role models and are perfect models of integrity and honesty. The important point of variation of both leaders is their focus. Transformational leaders focus on organizational objectives whereas servant leaders are more concerned with the satisfaction of their followers’ highest priority needs. In addition to focus difference they can also be differentiated on the basis of moral, focus, motive and mission,development and influence distinctions.
