The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between character strengths, virtues, self-efficacy, and transformational leadership. The focus was to connect the possible precursors of character strengths and virtues to transformational leadership, something which has not been researched before. Most of the existing research about transformational leadership has focused on studying the effects of, and not possible precursors to, transformational leadership. Based on connections found between self-efficacy and transformational leadership, as well as individual strengths of character and self-efficacy in previous research, it was also expected that self-efficacy would have a moderating effect between the independent and dependent variables in this research (Fitzgerald & Schutte, 2009; J. Liu, Siu, & Shi, 2010; Martinez, Salanova, Lorente, & Jose, 2011). The participants in the study were 173 Norwegian leaders from various industries. Of these, 71.7% were males between 18-67 years. The research used a quantitative, nonexperimental and cross-sectional research design. Ten multiple regression analyses were computed on the data material. The two virtues of courage and wisdom and knowledge were found to be predictors of transformational leadership style in these Norwegian leaders. Self-efficacy was also found to moderate the relationship between the virtues of courage, humanity, temperance, and transformational leadership. The fact that both transformational leadership and character strengths can be developed opens new content in leadership development programs. As many of the character strengths are universally seen as appreciated values in both world religions and among everyday people, they can be seen as universally and religiously applicable across many of the world's countries (Seligman & Csikszentmihalyi, 2004; Seligman, Steen, Park, & Peterson, 2005), which again can heighten the character strengths' value and importance for universally accepted leadership and also contribute to an international conceptualization of global leadership theory.
