Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyse the influence of Spiritual Intelligence to transformational leadership style displayed by student leaders. Students are the future leaders in organizations, be it in the public or the private sector. During the years spent at the institutions of higher learning, students will be able to learn and experience many types of leadership either through their own capacity as the leader or as a team member. A total of 200 questionnaires were distributed to students. The students that participated in this study were from many parts of the world. It was found that correlation exist between Spiritual Intelligence and Transformational Leadership style displayed by the students. However, most of their coefficients indicate a moderate degree of strength. It is through group activities that students develop their leadership skills. As such, coordinators of these activities need to guide and nurture the leadership skills of the students.
