An effective leader must be able to envision the overall performance by incorporating rational, strategic, global, and complex ideas based on a social dynamic (McKee, 2013). Smith’s leadership philosophy focuses on many aspects of transformation leadership. She serves as a role model through idealized influence, and acknowledges each individual’s intrinsic value, by respecting their thoughts, ideas, and opinions even if they go against her personal or religious beliefs. Her Inspirational motivation depicts a clear vision through communication and articulation where every individual is working toward the same goals.

Through ethical, fair, open, trusting, and honest behavior with others, she builds lasting relationships with those she works with that last a lifetime (Chiniara & Benteir,
