Transactions, or social exchanges, comprise the majority of the relationships among leaders and followers (Burns, 1978). the idea of dealingal leadership may be a transaction or exchange method between leaders and followers. The dealing leaders acknowledges followers‘ want and want then clarifies however those wants and wishes are glad in exchange of meeting specific objective or activity bound duties( Draft, 2005).

Burns (1978) provided initial definitions of transformational leadership by drawing a distinction between transformational and transactional types of leadership.
