An Exploratory Research for HRD Transformation Leadership Through Crisis Supply Chain Management During the Pandemic

Abstract

Though crucial in normal times, transformative leadership in disasters has received scant attention. Crisis leadership has long been a key organisational function. This research seeks to explain the unexplained relationship between leadership efficacy and transformative leadership. Over time, businesses have evolved conservative, structured, and regulated methods for managing and accomplishing stakeholder goals. In contrast, a transformational environment grows faster, less predictable, and less certain than the previous 50 years. This chapter examines how pandemics are changing leadership and management. Many of today's structures and procedures were developed in the last 30 to 40 years; thus, it may not be necessary.
