Leader Ship Styles


Transactional Leaders


Transactional leaders conduct their business by identifying the needs of their followers and bestowing rewards to satify those needs in exchange for a certain level of performance. Transactional leaders are expected to do the following :

  • Set goals
  • Articulate explicit agreements regarding what the leader expects from organizational members and how they will be rewarded for their efforts and commitment
  • Provide constructive feedback to keep everybody on task.

Transactional leaders focus on increasing the efficiency of established routines and procedures and are more concerned with following existing rules than with making changes to the structure of the organization. Thus, they opperate most effectively in organizations that have evolved beyond the chaotic, no-rules stage of entrepreneurial development that charecterizes so many new companies. Transactional leadership establishes and standardizes practices that will help the organization reach maturity, emphasizing setting of goals, efficiency of operation, and increase of productivity.

Drug use, abuse, or addiction among employees and their family members can cause expensive problems for business and industry, ranging from lost productivity, absenteeism, injuries, fatalities, theft and low employee morale, to an increase in health care, legal liabilities and workers' compensation costs.

In addition, drug abuse can cause problems at work including:

  • After-effects of substance use (withdrawal) affecting job performance
  • Preoccupation with obtaining and using substances while at work, interfering with attention and concentration
  • Illegal activities at work including selling illegal drugs to other employees
  • Psychological or stress-related effects due to drug use by a family member, friend or co-worker that affects another person's job performance
