Abstract
This study explored the impact of transformational and transactional leadership styles on work motivation and organizational commitment of faculty members at higher education level. Quantitative research approach was used to extract data through three self-constructed questionnaires on five point Likert scale. Strong positive correlation was observed between leadership styles and the outcome variables. Multiple Regression Analysis indicated that transformational style of leadership in organizations as determinant/predictor variable has high significant value in comparison to transactional style of organizational leadership in educational institutions. Transformational leadership in organizations manifested a variance of 84% for work motivation and 89% for organizational commitment whereas transactional style of organizational leadership as a determinant/predictor variable manifested a variance of 78% for work motivators and 79% for organizational commitment. Competitive edge of higher education institutions needs to be improved through intellectual stimulation and inspirational motivation as well.
