Abstract
AbstractThis study explored the relationship between principal communication styles and the leadership effectiveness of school heads, a topic not previously examined in the local context of Digos City Division, Philippines. The research aimed to determine the extent of principal communication styles among school heads and the leadership effectiveness of public secondary school heads. Additionally, it investigated the association between these variables and identified which domains of principal communication styles significantly influenced leadership effectiveness. Using probability sampling, 150 secondary teachers in public schools were selected as respondents. Employing a descriptive-correlational survey method, data were analyzed using Mean, Pearson Product-Moment correlation, and Regression Analysis. Results revealed that both principal communication styles and leadership effectiveness were extensive. A significant relationship was found between these variables, with all domains of principal communication styles significantly influencing leadership effectiveness. Based on these findings, it was suggested that higher officials in the Department of Education should help school heads enhance their communication styles to exemplify leadership effectiveness.Keywords: Principal communication styles, leadership effectiveness, determinant, Digos City Division, Philippines
