Leadership is the ability to influence, motivate, and guide people to achieve common goals. There is not just one type of leadership that is perpetuated in society; there is a range of styles that are defined according to the context, organizational behavior, and the group of followers. However, transformational leadership is a distinct model of leadership, since its leaders inspire followers to transcend their own interests for the benefit of the organization, exerting a profound and extraordinary effect on them. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the management of Mayor Áurea Maria, the first woman elected in the municipality of Eirunepé, in light of Transformational Leadership. The theoretical foundation was based on the postulates of Kanaane et. al., (2010), Spector (2006), Soto (2005), Wagner & Hollenbeck (2012), among others. The methodology adopted in this study was basic in nature, with a qualitative and quantitative approach, using the inductive method and the use of bibliographic, descriptive, explanatory and field research as procedures. The results revealed that there is a certain level of satisfaction among the population regarding infrastructure, basic sanitation, health and education, but dissatisfaction regarding public safety and the mayor's communication with the people of Eirunepé. Regarding the opinion of municipal public servants, the survey showed that employees perceived significant changes in the current mayor's administration: in education, security, social assistance, infrastructure, tourism, economy, sports and leisure, and basic sanitation. However, they suggest more investment in education and health.
