ABSTRACT. My analysis complements the growing literature on the employees’ motivation to achieve organizational aims, the impact of transformational leadership in a public sector environment, the determinants of leaders’ behavior change, and the norms that support public administrators in their position as participants in democratic governance. The theory that I shall seek to elaborate here puts considerable emphasis on internal psychological processes that are prominent to employee attitudes and behaviors, the effect of task relevance on job performance, the duties and scope of transformational leadership in the public sector, and the normative features of transformational leadership in democratic governance. pp. 110–115

Keywords: performance effect; transformational leadership; public administration
