As much attention has been given in the last two decades to transformational leadership as being one of the trendiest leadership styles that focuses on the relation between followers and leaders to achieve better performance during organizational transformation, transactional leadership is still of benefit. This paper bridges organizational transformation and leadership literature and show the importance of transformational (horizontal) leadership alongside transactional (vertical) leadership in achieving efficient performance and optimal results during organizational transformation. Methodology: A literature review will be conducted based on literature related to certain key word and through a systematic literature review protocol.</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> organizational transformation, leadership, transactional leadership, transformational leadership</p&gt;}, number={25}, journal={KnE Social Sciences}, author={AlGhanem, Nawaf and Braganza, Ashley and Eldabi, Tillal}, year={2019}, month={Sep.}, pages={90–108} }
