Transformational leadership, organizational culture, and organizational performance are
relevant topics in management studies as well as the study of small and medium enterprises
(SME) due to their importance in the society and economy; despite this, even when literature
shows that transformational leadership and organizational culture have a positive effect on the
performance of large companies, no study has assessed if these topics and their
interrelationship increases the performance in SME. This quantitative, survey-based, crosssectional
research, based on a theoretical framework and previous empirical findings, assessed
whether organizational culture is a mediator between transformational leadership and
organizational performance into a population of SME using a sample of 303 firms (276
effective) in Peru. Findings suggest that organizational culture fully mediates the relationship
between transformational leadership and organizational performance; therefore, this study
proposes that is not enough to be a transformational leader but also to create and promote an
organizational culture for improving the performance of an organization. Very few studies
worldwide have investigated this topic, and none has focused on SME. Future research could
include SME and large firms – using the size of the business as moderator - in different
countries / Tesis
