A transactional relationship is a relationship that will use people for their gifts or talent. Your needs come first ahead of anyone else. This isn’t necessarily a negative thing. Being transactional helps us to act in self-preserving ways, which is particularly important in a business sense. For example, when assigning tasks to group members, you want to make sure the tasks are assigned according to strength and expertise in that subject. Not only are you thinking logically, but utilizing each person for their strengths to increase project output is a transactional relationship.

A transformational relationship is a relationship that focuses more on the message, not the task. The focus is simply to love, inspire and care for the other. For example, in the group project, the goals, missions, or outcomes that are collectively decided are part of a transformational relationship between the partners at the table. They’re all agreeing to a common goal for the good of the subject.
