Abstract Researchers in China found that there are different structures of transformational leadership, but have ignored the transactional leadership. This study attempts to investigate the transactional leadership in China by three samplings, involving 1944 valid samples. Content analysis, the Explored Factor Analysis (EFA) and the Confirmed Factor Analysis (CFA) showed that, based on Chinese cultural background, the new transactional leadership questionnaire has good reliability and validity. The mechanisms of transformational and transactional leadership are different. Based on Chinese cultural background, the structure of the transactional leadership is built, which further extends the localization studies of the MLQ (Multi-factor Questionnaire) theoretical system. And it has important theoretical value for local management practices. Further research was discussed finally.
