Influence of Head Teachers' Leadership Styles on Teachers' Commitment in the Ledzokuku Municipality

The study examines the influence of leadership styles on commitment in the Ledzokuku Municipality. A cross-sectional sample method was used in this research. A quantitative approach was used, and a sample size of 425 was chosen. The population size is 850, which comprises all head teachers and teachers currently teaching in public basic schools in the Ledzokuku Municipality. The findings revealed that, collectively, leadership styles significantly influence commitment. To ascertain the extent to which demographic factors (sex, age, academic qualification, marital status, and tenure) collectively affect commitment, the research hypothesis was formulated and tested. The findings disclosed that demographic factors do not significantly affect commitment. According to the study, head teachers who use the full range of leadership styles have more dedicated teachers. As a result, it is suggested that the Ministry of Education and the Ghana Education Service pay more attention to the complete spectrum of leadership styles when recruiting head teachers in order to enhance teacher engagement and retention in the Ledzokuku Municipality.
