TI  - Determining Transformative Leaders in the Energy Transition: a Value-based Approach to Leadership
N2  - Transformative leaders are required in the energy transition, who transform society and aim for societal rather than organizational goals. Additionally, a value-based approach to leadership is used, which implies that we incorporate the subjective motives, values and visions of leaders. Through the four-quadrant model of leadership, the current study aims to analyze leadership in the context of the energy transition. Based on this model, a series of interviews have been conducted with frontrunners in the energy transition to analyze the motives of leaders and the styles of leadership. The results suggest that leaders feel stimulated to exercise their leadership in most respects. However, the institutional context in the Netherlands, in particular the polder model, serves as an important impeding factor. Recommendations are proposed as to how such barriers can be overcome. Additionally, implications for our role as planners in the energy transition are proposed.
