Abstract

Previous researchers have had a long debate about the urgency of the application of transformational and instructional leadership models for educational organizations. Nevertheless, there is a stream of research that seeks to bridge the conflict by recommending the adoption of principal leadership in educational organizations. Principal leadership combines the advantages of transformational and instructional leadership applications in a leadership model. While it still has many contradictions in its form, the potential use of this leadership model needs to be explored further to get a useful leadership model in schools. This study aims to investigate how teachers respond to principal leadership practices. The response is assessed by principal leadership indicators that may be practiced naturally. This study using survey method to collecting the data with the help of questionnaires to high school teachers in North Sumatra, Indonesia. With purposive sampling and snowball techniques, this study received 352 responses. The responses are then tabulated and analyzed using factor analysis. The results of this study indicate the potential application of principal leadership in North Sumatra. The application of leadership principals systematically can increase the effectiveness of schools that will have implications for improving teacher performance and student achievement.
