Transformational leadership, a type of leadership commonly promoted within higher education, has been shown to positively affect performance, collaborative behavior, and goal accomplishment. Such skills may correlate with the level of job responsibility one has been given and the technical, human, and conceptual skills needed for one to be successful. This study sought to bridge a research gap by exploring correlations between transformational leadership and skills-approach leadership with an exploration of the role of gender within perceptions. An unexpected result based on gender was found: As females achieve higher roles within the Land-Grant University System, the perception of their transformational leadership decreases while that of males increases. Transformational leadership and skills-approach leadership is discussed within the context of gender.
变革型领导是高等教育中普遍推崇的一种领导方式,已被证明能对绩效、协作行为和目标达成产生积极影响。这类技能可能与一个人所承担的工作职责水平以及其成功所需的技术、人际和概念技能相关。本研究旨在通过探索变革型领导与技能导向型领导之间的相关性,并探讨性别在认知中的作用来填补研究空白。研究发现了一个基于性别的意外结果:随着女性在赠地大学系统中担任更高职位,她们的变革型领导认知度下降,而男性的则上升。本文在性别的背景下讨论了变革型领导和技能导向型领导。
