    Transformational leadership theory was first proposed in the 1970s and formalized by Bass in 1985. It describes how leaders work with followers to identify needed change, create a vision to guide the change through inspiration, and execute the change in a way that transforms individuals and organizations. Transformational leaders achieve this through idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration. They raise followers' levels of consciousness about important issues and move them to address higher-level needs.
