Individual Value System as a Factor in Creation of Leadership Styles of School Principals

Abstract

The main aim of this article is to describe the potential correlation between the value system of school principals and their leadership styles. On the basis of wide veriaty of literature and available reports the pilot studies were created. Although the first results (obtained during pilot studies) are not definitive they correspond with the results of the research conducted in different environ-ments. The results suggest the existence of the correlation between dominant value system and preferred style of leadership of particular principals.
