Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine if principal leadership behavior, perceived by principals and teachers, is related to principal longevity. Kouzes and Posner's Leadership Practices Inventory (2003) was used to measure perceptions of principal leadership behavior. Data were analyzed to determine principal and teacher perceptions of principal leadership behavior and further analyzed to investigate a relationship between principal leadership behavior and principal longevity. Principals and teachers rated principals' leadership behavior favorably with principal ratings higher than teachers. No relationship was found between principal leadership behavior and principal longevity. However, implications for leadership development and increased self-awareness were apparent.
