Abstract
In the present descriptive-correlational study, the relationships between leadership styles and spiritual intelligence were studied among a group of school principals. Methodology: The population included all school principals working in Tehran’s fourth educational district throughout the school year 2011-2012. Out of the whole population, 156 subjects were selected through stratified random sampling method. Data were collected by means of ‘the Spiritual Intelligence Questionnaire’ (Sohrabi & Naseri, 2007) and ‘the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire’ (Bass & Avolio, 2000) and analyzed through multiple regression analysis and Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. Results: The results indicated positive significant relationships between transactional and transformational leadership styles and spiritual intelligence and that transcendental self-consciousness alone can predict almost %36.2 and %14.6 of variations in transformational and transactional leadership styles respectively. Conclusion: Moreover, a significant relationship was observed between the non-interference leadership style and spiritual intelligence so that %2.9 of variations in this style could be predicted by self-consciousness and %3.2 by patients.
