Abstract

Abstract: The present research on transformational leadership has as a general objective to establish the impact of transformational leadership that high school teachers of the Millennium Educational Institution "Bernardo Valdivieso" perform through their teaching practice; the total of teachers of the Entrepreneurship and Management subject and 196 high school students were surveyed. The research was non-experimental-transversal and of exploratory, descriptive nature; the descriptive, statistical, deductive-inductive, analytic-synthetic and hermeneutic methods were used; as techniques, the questionnaire, readings, conceptual maps, graphic organizers, summary or paraphrasing were employed. It is concluded that in order to perform a successful transformational leadership in the learning process, it depends on both personal and professional abilities, on the other hand, there are limitations in terms of how to solve a conflict of indiscipline, as in the execution of educational activities; the classes reflect weaknesses in interaction, communication, affectivity and confidence; consequently, they show weaknesses in the competences to perform a good leadership. It is recommended to accept the proposal that integrates methodological strategies, tending to improve teaching practice and leadership.
