The results showed a statistically significant impact of transformational leadership, with its dimensions (idealized influence, inspirational motivation, individual considerations, and intellectual stimulation), on the quality of work life, as measured by its dimensions (job design, capacity development, career advancement, compensation, and social integration) in Jordanian insurance companies. The study also indicated that the relative importance of the study variables and all their dimensions was high, with means (4.03) for transformational leadership and (3.96) for quality of work life.
