Abstract
The levels of self-directed learning readiness, strategic thinking and leader effectiveness in Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) directors were measured. The analysis of the 471 responses demonstrated robust correlations between self-directed learning readiness and strategic thinking (r = .58, p < .001). Leader effectiveness correlated similarly and significantly with these two constructs (r = .10, p < .05). These correlations present evidence of positive relationships between self-directed learning levels, strategic thinking levels and leader effectiveness. The relationships between self-directed learning, strategic thinking and leader effectiveness were analysed for moderation by the demographic variables. The respondents' self-identification of their ethnicity as a member of a non-white minority group moderated the correlation between strategic thinking and leader effectiveness.
