| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between leadership styles and Teachers’ motivation in government high school of Addis Ababa City. In order to investigate the principal leadership style and teachers’ motivation, descriptive survey design was employed. This is because it enables the researcher to collect and describe large variety of data related designs .The study used descriptive survey method by incorporating both quantitative and qualitative data.. This study used 132 respondents randomly selected using lottery method from teachers (517) at selected secondary schools of Addis Ababa. Semi-structured interview was used to gather in-depth qualitative data from principals of the schools. Because interview has greatest potential to release more in-depth information, provide opportunity to observe non-verbal behaviour of respondents, gives opportunities for clearing up misunderstandings. The data obtained through questionnaire, which were liable to quantitative analysis were coded and entered into SPSS version 21 and analyzed using simple descriptive statistics frequency count, percentages and means followed by discussion of the most important points. For nominal or ordinal variables, a frequency count for each value is very descriptive and the mean is appropriate for describing interval or ratio data. Qualitative data gathered through interviews were analyzed qualitatively through descriptive narration .Transactional leadership style most frequently used by principals, transformational leadership practice moderately whereas laissez-faire leadership was not practiced. School principals should undergo in-service and refresher courses on school leadership and management to manage and lead teachers in scientific way, because most of the school principals are from non-leadership academic staff. Prescribed leadership training should be conducted for principals by region, sub cities and Woreda education expertise. Key words: Leadership, Motivation, School Principals | en_US |
