New Presidents' Initial Actions: Transactional and Transformational Leadership.

Bensimon, Estela M.

Journal for Higher Education Management, v8 n2 p5-17 Win-Spr 1993

A study created and compared two composite college presidential leadership styles, based on analysis of the effects of new presidents. The impact of one type's leadership was primarily on satisfaction and morale, the other's on structural and physical features of the institution. Results suggest new presidents should integrate the two approaches. (MSE)
