Abstract

Transformational leadership is a key method in modern leadership. It directly impacts job performance in public universities. This study explores how transformational leadership affects job performance among employees at Jordanian public universities. The research used a descriptive approach. Data came from 350 employees at various government universities in Jordan through reliable questionnaires. The results showed a strong, positive relationship between transformational leadership and job performance. Based on these findings, the study recommends adopting transformational leadership methods. These methods should focus on motivating employees to improve institutional performance. The study also encourages further research on psychological and organizational factors affecting the environment in Jordanian universities.
