the leaders as well as members of the group. This means that the manager has
the authority to lead his team.

motivate, and change the attitude and behavior of subordinate such as

The four behaviors of
transformational leadership
Idealized Influence

Idealized influence takes place when leaders foster trust and respect
among others, and model ethically desirable behaviors through the
demonstration of personally held beliefs.
“You believe in something, you stand up for it, you try to pull
together a team of people who can be inspired by that same vision,
and then help encourage people to add value by putting their unique
talents to the task - and you treat everybody with respect, no matter
what role they’re playing.” - Rick
Hansen

expectations, through which leaders inspire and energize others to
achieve their goals.
Encourage mentees to leave their comfort zones and explore their
abilities

available to your mentee. This will enable you to provide your
mentee
with valuable information about all of the possible activities they
can participate in.
Intellectual Stimulation

from multiple perspectives, and question their own and others’
commonly held assumptions.
Individualized Consideration

the personal and psychological needs of others, and display a
genuine sense of care and concern.
"It was not just affability or good manners or his physical
appearance.
But a genuine capacity for empathy, for interesting himself in the
circumstances of other people." -Tom Lodge

Recommendation

We would like to propose the government and development partners for
taking on consideration, continuing support in particular:
1. Policy and regulations aimed at integrating the current TVET and training
systems to ensure they are focused on meeting labour market demands
2. Strengthening the mechanisms for government, industry and training
providers to review, analyse and make use of labour market information
3. Improve the teaching and learning environment of some TVET
Institutions (facilities, technical equipment)
4. Improve the quality and consistency of teaching and learning (upgrading
the technical and pedagogy skills and knowledge of teachers)
