Abstract: This thesis examines the impact of transformational leadership on member and employee performance and engagement in the modern work environments.In order to maintain motivation, creativity, and job satisfaction, organizations are increasingly implementing flexible arrangements.Using Agency Theory and Institutional Theory as a foundation, this study looks at how transformational leadership affects organizational outcomes in non-profit organizations and for-profit contexts.Employees and members from a range of different industries participated in semi-structured interviews as a part of qualitative methodology based on interpretivism.The results of the thematic analysis showed that transformational leadership increases organizational commitment, boosts intrinsic drive, and builds a common vision.However, leadership effectiveness and engagement levels are also influenced by organizational factors including industry and institutional pressures.By emphasizing the significance of adapting leadership styles to accommodate changing employee and member requirements and workplace structures, the findings add to a wealth of literature on organizational behavior and leadership.
