This study looks at the relationship between family values, gender norms, and transformational leadership, using a sample of 56 manager-subordinate pairs from five organizations with headquarters in eastern India. Schwartz value survey, Bem Sex Role Inventory, and Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire were used. The findings show that managers whose parents gave importance to benevolence values would possess feminine characteristics. However, neither benevolence values nor femininity was related to transformational leadership. Nevertheless, another significant finding that emerged from this study was the positive relationship between stimulation values and transformational leadership. This indicated that parents who gave importance to stimulation values are likely to have their children becoming transformational leaders. |
