"The real leader has no need to lead, he is content to point the way"

"If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader"

"Where there is no vision, the people perish"

Transformational


James MacGregor Burns, who was born in 1918, is known a presidential biographer, political scientist, historian, and most importantly for his work on leadership studies. He was one of the first authors to write about understanding leadership with a philosophical approach. Mr. Burns did ground breaking work in bringing light to the ideas of transformational leadership. Instead of concentrating on the traits and actions of great men leaders, as was done before, he looked into the interaction of leaders their style of working toward mutual benefit. His work is said to have changed how we view management and leadership in the workplace and out. 


Video example of transformational leader

A Martin Luther king speech is a obvious example of a transformational leadership. His speeches are full of inspiration, intellectual stimulation and he is undeniably someone with idealized qualities. The movement he brought on was an undeniable transformation, that needed such a strong, determined and vision oriented leader.




My slum dog millionaire slide show to illustrate a transformation from helpless and hopeless to empowered 




This photo is to represent the before scene, which was quite hopeless in regards to Jamal's future


This is to represent the young character spark for life and not being at the mercy of what he was given, but instead taking charge of his own life.




This photo is in the middle of Jamal's transformation process, he was made headway, but is facing unfamiliarity and challenges


His hard work is paying off, as he unexpectedly won a million dollars with his great knowledge and perseverance



and in the end, he gets the girl too ! Which is to represent the whole transformation/ his success
