Authors: , , , ,
Abstract: This article is a sequel to a study and several have been published. The purpose of this study is to answer the questions 1) are there differences in the perceptions of principals’ transformational leadership based on gender? 2) which is more solid on the perception of principals’ transformational leadership based on gender? This survey on transformation by gender and the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire was used as research tools via a five-point Likert scale. The sample in this study amounted to 140 teachers in Pesawaran Regency, Lampung Province. The data is processed using SPSS Version 22. The calculation results show 1) the significance of the calculation results with a statistical significance of 0.05 and independent samples test, the probability (sig) is 0.106 > 0.05, meaning that the male and female population variances are the same/identical, and 2) Variance statistic for male is 23,709 smaller than female 38,361. The results of these calculations mean that gender differences do not make difference in perceptions of transformational leadership practices and women are not more solid than men in perceiving transformational leadership practices. Thus, women’s participation in contributing to development shows a significant increase both in quantity and quality, and women can act as a counterweight. In the final word, men and women, complement each other to participate in development.
