Question

The ability to create and articulate a realistic, credible, attractive exemplar of the future that grows out of, and improves upon, the present is known as ________ leadership.

Answer 1

The answer is Visionary leadership. It is closely connected to the transformational leadership style. The major difference among the two is it involves the focus on the future. Visionary leaders live more in the future and they often use a vision of the future as a way to mobilize followers. Also, the leader here is inspiring in vision, and helps others to see how they can contribute to this vision; allowing the leader and followers to move together towards a common view of the future.
