Determinants of Leadership Effectiveness.

      Аннотация: It is universal fact that the success of an organization is the result of effective leadership and same is the case with education. The purpose of this study was to establish whether some selected factors are determinants of principals' leadership effectiveness. The data was analyzed with descriptive statistics, correlations, simple linear regression, stepwise regression and multiple regressions for statistical answers of the research questions. The study examined the influence of school climate, principals’ job satisfaction, position powers, leadership style, management skills and personality traits (taken as determinants) on their effectiveness. The findings from regression analysis provide additional information which either complements what is already on the ground or serves as a catalyst for further investigation in the area of leadership. The research problem explored is highly useful for administrators. With these, they can come up in aspects of leadership in which they are found wanting. The identification of the determinants of principal effectiveness will be useful for policy makers, educational planners and the administrative heads of education department.
