Abstract

The leadership, culture and performance are indispensable in determining development and success of organizations. However, due to its significant role in socio-economic evolution, this assessment requires further attention in context of higher education institutions (HEIs). Current research aimed to examine the effects of heads of departments (HODs) leadership styles (transactional & transformational) on teachers’ performance. Moreover, this study sought to evaluate mediating effect of organizational culture in bridging the gap between leadership styles and teachers’ performance in HEIs hailing from the southern region, KP province Pakistan. Thus, primary data was collected over dyad questionnaires from heads of departments, and teachers from selected institutions. The data were evaluated using a variety of statistical tools that are correlation (to determine association), and mediation (role of organizational culture). Findings indicate positive correlation, and partial mediation. The findings of this study, consequently, advocate that the policymakers and researchers might opt for leadership styles that are best-suited and vital for the culture and performance of the institutions.
