The book "Principal's Transformational Democratic Leadership" offers a comprehensive analysis of school leadership practices in Malaysia, which increasingly align with contemporary recommendations. It examines how school leaders can enhance school performance and increase teacher satisfaction through democratic and transformational leadership approaches. The authors, Lee Hwa Cheah, Suan Yoong, and Abdul Ghani Abdullah, highlight the importance of participative and collaborative leadership based on trusting relationships with teachers. Transformational leadership is characterized by features such as individualized consideration, idealized influence, and intellectual stimulation. The book illustrates how these leadership styles enable school leaders to question their authority and promote a more democratic school leadership that meets the needs and expectations of increasingly educated teachers.
