Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to point out the importance of applying a transformational leadership style in the prevention of employees resitance to change in modern organizations, where digital organizations stand out. Transformational leadership appears as a strong motivator, based on ideal influence, motivation and inspiration, intellectual stimulation, and recognizing that each employee requires an individual approach, leading through changes and promoting values that are in line with newly emerging changes, creating an appropriate business climate of trust, and which ultimately leads to the achievement of the goals and results of the business organization. Modern organizations today strive for change, which leads to the generation of many innovative business solutions. They are also key areas where new ideas, ideologies, cultures and value systems are created, which is why it is important to apply the appropriate leadership style in order to effectively lead them to the desired results and the achievement of business goals. The problem in accomplishing these tasks is the appearance of resistance among employees due to the changes that have occurred. The aim of the paper is to show through the analysis of the literature how important it is to understand the impact that the transformational leadership style has on the reduction of resistance among employees, so that the process of change can be successfully and properly implemented. The results of the research show that the application of the transformational style in digital organizations contributes to the faster application of development solutions compared to the competition.
