transformative power
Ability to revolutionize
Transformative power is the capacity to cause fundamental change—to reshape circumstances, institutions, or people in lasting ways.
The phrase appears in discussions of technology, education, art, and social movements: the transformative power of literacy, the transformative power of love.
It implies change that goes beyond surface adjustment to alter something's essential nature.
