In this episode of Leadership & Learning with Dr. JBT, we explore one of the most powerful frameworks for elevating leadership beyond task management — The Four I's of Transformational Leadership:

Idealized Influence, Inspirational Motivation, Intellectual Stimulation, and Individualized Consideration.

If you've ever wondered how to inspire deeper commitment, strengthen culture, or fuel real change, these Four I's offer a practical roadmap for doing just that.

What We Cover

• How Idealized Influence helps leaders model the behaviors they want to see

• Why Inspirational Motivation connects everyday work to purpose, hope, and shared vision

• How Intellectual Stimulation builds a culture of curiosity, innovation, and safe experimentation

• Why Individualized Consideration is essential for coaching, developing, and caring for people as individuals

Key Takeaway

Transformational leadership isn't about doing more; it's about leading with intention. When leaders model their values, share the "why," encourage new ideas, and invest in people, they create meaningful culture shifts that last.
