Organizational effectiveness through transformational leadership and technology innovation: a systematic literature review and future research agenda

Taking an upper echelon theoretical perspective in public sector higher education, this systematic literature review had quadruple objectives. First, to identify the gap in the existing literature on transformational leadership (TL). Second, to suggest a comprehensive instrument for a higher-order c...
