The present article is the literature reviews of transformational leadership style and its efficacy within the health organization specially the nurses’ job performance. Nurses are the frontline defenders in health care settings. Therefore, their leadership style has great importance in the performance. Nursing leaders have the positive impact on the efficiency of the nursing team members’ work performance. Furthermore, the literature review probes the concept of transformational role which is the most important part of job satisfaction and job performance. The relationship of transformation style and job performance was rather debatable in different research studies. Hence, it is the priority to comprehend the concept of transformational leadership and evaluate its impact on nurses’ job performance. Therefore, the transformational leadership style would resolve different health setting problems. It improves nurses’ performance resulting minimize patients’ hospital stay. Therefore, a high outcome could be managed with fewer resources. A very few studies were conducted on a transformational leadership style among front line shoulders i.e. nurses.
