Abstract
This correlational study examined the
relationship between transformational leadership style
and three situational factors (leader-member exchange
or LMR, task structure or TS, and position power or
PP) for successful operation at Assumption
Samutprakarn School, Thailand. To meet the study’s
objectives, all 99 administrators and academic
departments of the target school were given a survey
questionnaire to complete (Multi-Factor Leadership
Questionnaire–to measure transformational leadership
style, Situational Factor Questionnaire–to measure the
three situational factors, and researcher-constructed
questions aimed at depicting the demographic profile
of the participants). The major findings of this study
were: (1) The school administrators and academic
departments perceived that they have high
transformational leadership style, high leader-member
relations, high task-structure, and high position power;
(2) Transformation leadership style was not found to
be significantly related to the leader-member relations
situational factor (p>.05); (3) Transformational
leadership style is positively and significantly related
to the task-structure situational factor (p<.01); and (4)
Transformational leadership style was positively and
significantly related to the position power situational
factor (p<.001).
