N2 - The effect of transformational vis-à-vis transactional supply chain leadership on firm performance has been studied in the existing literature, but results remain mixed. Therefore, it is important to provide a meta-analysis literature review to investigate this relationship. In this study, 32 empirical journal articles published over the past 10 years have been reviewed and evaluated through a meta-analysis. The results reveal that supply chain leadership is positively related to firm performance; specifically, transformational supply chain leadership has a more significant influence than transactional supply chain leadership on firm performance. Further, the effect of leadership varies according to region, industry and performance type. This study provides the first meta-analysis on this relationship.
