PAEZ, Iliana; RINCON, Andrés; ASTUDILLO, Margarita  e  BOHORQUEZ, Stella. A Study of Transformational Leadership and Managerial Competencies in the Flower Agricultural Sector of Colombia. Rev. esc.adm.neg [online]. 2014, n.76, pp.20-43. ISSN 0120-8160.

A good leadership is essential for the successful development of organizations and their staff members. Transformational leadership is a contemporary focus which highlights the moral bases of leadership and which has been valued in different cultures, being associated with its efectiviness and workers´ outcomes such as satisfaction and performance. This leadership is manifested through four basic performance dimensions (idealized influence, inspiring motivation, intellectual stimulus and individual consideration) and through the managerial competencies of an executive. In this case study, these dimensions and ten leadership competencies (integrity and confidence, orientation to outcomes, importance of action, perseverance, effective use of time, effective communication, high performance team formation and development, decision making, business capacity and strategic management capacity) have been analyzed taking an executive sample of 16 companies from the flower agricultural sector with the Florverde seal. This seal shows care for products and compromise with companies regarding environmental affairs and social responsibility, issues which are closely related with transformational leadership. Two transformational leadership dimensions were found: idealized influence and inspiring motivation, and its most outstanding competence was confidence and integrity, key elements for the successful development of transformational leadership.
