This study is the result of a partnership of teachers and researchers exploring the leadership behavior of gifted learners working in small groups. Using videotape analysis and a model of transformational leadership, this study traced a process for diagnosing the leadership needs of gifted learners and created instructional interventions to enable students to transfer skills developed in a teacher-directed lesson to other settings. Transformational leadership is a viable model for conceptualizing the leadership of gifted learners, although the frequency of leadership behavior was relatively small.
