摘要
The aim of the research is to explore leadership styles applied by the principals of the secondary schools in Negev in south of Israel, as viewed by the teachers and it’s aimed to find out whether factors such as settlement, school location, and gender of teacher may change principal leadership style in the secondary school in Negev. The research relies on the theory of full range leadership model. Design/methodology/approach questionnaires assessing the variables of interest were completed by 306 teachers in 22 Bedouin secondary schools in Negev. Statistical analysis that had been made to the data included mean, standard division, and t-test. The results of the research indicated that the teacher characteristic affected the principal leadership style. Principal changed his/her behavior according to the teacher characteristic. The principal in temporary settlements is more transformative than principal in permanent settlement. Bedouin principal also is more transactional with non-local teachers than with local teachers and he is less laissez-faire with female than males.
