{"abstract":"Leadership is a critical skill for school success, influencing teacher motivation, the learning environment, and community interaction. This study aimed to determine teachers’ preferred leadership styles of school leaders. Adopting a quantitative research design with Karl Pearson’s correlation method, the study involved 50 teachers and 6 principals from six elementary schools in the Municipality of Catmon. Data on respondent profiles and leadership styles were collected via a survey questionnaire to test the relationship between teacher profiles and preferred leadership styles, and to find significant differences between implemented and preferred styles. Results indicated that teachers preferred all five identified leadership styles, and school leaders implemented these same five styles. A significant relationship was found between teachers’ gender and designation and their preference for leadership styles, but not with age, grade level assigned, educational attainment, teaching experience, or seminars/trainings attended. No significant difference was found between the implemented leadership styles of school leaders and the preferred leadership styles of teachers. These findings support the claim that no single leadership style fits all subordinates, but rather a mix of styles is effective.","abstract_source":"gemini_shortened","authors":["Ann Malourie Caputolan"],"date":"2025-06-30","doi":"10.70838/pemj.410503","id":5681,"issue":5,"journal":{"issn":"2822-4353","name":"Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal"},"pdf_sha256":"32aa845812647396dd5cca30f6b34a67c36de7109e1da3b2a8092b7f5f1a14e5","schema":"scimatic-article/1","title":"Teachers’ Preferred Leadership Styles of School Leaders","volume":41}
