The influence of headmaster’s leadership style on teachers’ performance / Md Baharuddin Md Nawi

1.1 Introduction
The research that is going to be done is focusing on the headmasters’ leadership style in influencing the teachers performance whether in or outside die classroom . By doing this research, hopefully, there would be an appropriate selection on which styles should all headmasters adapt in order to make their subordinates work well. Although it only covers the study on the samples in certain area, this study should represent the whole headmasters and teachers in Terengganu. Besides having the headmasters as the first respondents, it also takes into account the teachers comments, especially in getting to know whether they really depend on the right leadership styles to help them performing well.
1.2 The Statement of the problems
The curricular and co-curricular achievements of certain schools are satisfactory but some are otherwise. These achievements should have something to do with the teachers’ performance. Therefore, when dealing with teachers’ performance, it also involves the headmasters’ leadership styles. Some of the styles are not popular among the teachers and make them perform badly. However, the right styles would initiate the teachers to improve or increase their performance. The problem here is which styles should the headmasters adopt to suit with their teachers and at the same lime could increase their performance.
