摘要：Purpose –The aim of this research was to investigate the relationship between transformational leadership style and organizational identity of faculty members in state universities of West Azerbaijan Province, Iran. This research was a descriptive and correlational study.The statistical population of the research included all faculty members of these universities whose number was 765 at the time the research was conducted. Methodology – Using Morgan table and stratified random sampling method, 256 people were selected as the statistical sample size of the research. Since 300 questionnaires were distributed among which 283 were returned, the final data analysis was conducted for 283 people using SPSS and LISREL software. In order to collect data regarding transformational leadership, standard multifactor leadership questionnaire (MLQ) were used and for collecting data on organizational identity, Cheney's organizational identity questionnaire (1982) was applied. The reliability of the questionnaires were calculated to be 0.96 and 0.85, respectively, using Cronbach's alpha coefficients. Hypothesis and the assumed relationships between the variables in the presented theoretical model were investigated using regression analysis and structural equation model. Findings –The results obtained from this research showed that there was a positive and meaningful relationship between transformational leadership style and its variables and organizational identity of faculty members in state universities of West Azerbaijan Province, Iran (p<0.01, r=0.26). In addition, the statistical results obtained from this research indicated the positive and direct effect of transformational leadership style on organizational identity of faculty members. The results also showed that, among different components of transformational leadership style, intellectual stimulation has a stronger effect on organizational identity of the faculty members. Research limitations/implications - Because of the chosen research approach, the research results may lack generalisability. Therefore, researchers are encouraged to test the proposed propositions further. The Originality/value -This paper fulfils an identified need to study and highlighted the constructive and effective role of transformational leaders in educational organizations and demonstrate how transformational leaders are able to increase the productivity and dynamism of faculty members through of cognitive and attitudinal variables such as corporate identity in public universities in Iran.
