Abstract

As a leadership concept that is concerned with building employee creativity at the individual level to perform, it is very important to examine the concept of transformational leadership during a pandemic, especially for the construction industry, because this industry is heavily affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. The purpose of this research is to analyze the effects of the transformational leadership dimensions on the performance of the construction business in Jakarta during the Covid-19 pandemic. Structural Equation Model (SEM) with smart PLS was used to analyze the data. The respondents were businesspeople, members of the Association of the Construction Service Businessperson (Aspekindo). The statistical analysis shows that individualconsideration and idealized-influence dimension significantly affect the business performance. On the other hand, intellectual stimulation and inspirational motivation do not have significant impact on the performance. This research confirms that the attention to the individuals and the role model of a charismatic and amiable leader are fundamentals in the construction business during Covid-19 pandemic. In order to make sure the implementation of individual consideration and idealized influence are in the ethical corridor. this research recommends further research to use ethics as a variable to study transformational leadership in construction service during this pandemic.
