Abstract: Transformational approaches to leadership have increasingly been advocated for schools. Research evidence suggests that the effect of leadership on student learning outcomes is mediated by school conditions such as goals, structure, people, and school culture. Using the combined approach of multilevel analysis and structural modeling, this study investigated the relationships of leadership with school learning culture. Data were collected from a random sample of 373 teachers. The results suggested relationships between leadership and school learning culture did exist, and they highlight the importance of individual principal-teacher relationships in schools.

Keywords: Australia; teacher motivation; transformational leadership; vision.

2、采用多层次分析和结构建模相结合的办法，这项研究调查了领导与学校学习文化的关系。数据是从373教师进行随机抽样采集。结果表明领导与学校学习文化之间的关系确实存在，而且他们强调在个别学校校长与教师的关系的重要性。
