Özet:

 In this study, the concept of green transformative leadership was tried to be explained through a systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis. The research emphasised the relationship between transformational leadership and green transformational leadership and also addressed the importance of sustainability and environmental awareness. In this context, the trends in the green transformative leadership literature, the most frequently cited studies, major authors and key concepts were meticulously identified. To achieve this aim, a bibliometric analysis methodology was used, examining 56 English articles published in the Scopus database from 2013 to 2024. Data analysis was carried out using R and VOSviewer 1.6.6 software programmes. The main findings of this research can be summarised as follows: Over the years, there has been a significant increase in studies on green transformational leadership, particularly in relation to sustainable management practices and environmentally focused organisational strategies. The authors and sources that have made the most significant academic contributions to the field of green transformative leadership have been identified. The most common keywords and research trends related to green transformative leadership are analysed. The scientific productivity of research endeavours in this field is assessed and an attempt is made to identify which countries have made more significant contributions to green transformative leadership research. This research aims to improve the understanding of the construct of green transformative leadership, identify key concepts and provide a strategic framework for future research endeavours. Through a bibliometric analysis approach, the contribution of green transformative leadership to organisational sustainability goals and its importance in the management discipline is comprehensively examined.words should be written in capital letters.
