Bachelor Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Philosophy - Practical (Ethics, Aesthetics, Culture, Nature, Right, ...), grade: 1,3, Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, language: English, abstract: This study focuses on analyzing leadership on a meta level that allows to deduce a general theory of leadership, that is independent from the individual leader. Consequently, in this context the most important task of leadership is not only to provide a definition of leadership but to primarily find an answer to the question what good leadership in general and good transformational leadership in particular means. In times where change and transformation appears frequently the capable leader has to understand leadership as a transformation process and has to develop a transformational leadership style. But even though transformational leadership can be described as a crucial factor for future success, transformational leadership simultaneously contains the possibility to develop to a major threat for society Political leaders with a transformational approach like Josef Stalin, Adolf Hitler or Mao Zedong caused millions to suffer and nations to fall under their leadership, whilst other transformational political leaders reform nations and are leaders of progress, success and prosperity.
