PEREZ-ORTEGA, Giovanni  and  MORENO-FREITES, Zahira. Model of relationship of transformational leadership and university management. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2019, vol.86, n.210, pp.9-16. ISSN 0012-7353.  https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v86n210.78035.

We propose to find the model of relationship between Transformational Leadership and University Management. The Inventory of Leadership Practices form was used (LPI) as well as a University Management (UG) scale, which consists of four dimensions: Research, Teaching, Extension and Support. These dimensions were applied to managers of 31 universities in Colombia.

To identify the global relationship model between university management and the dimensions associated with transformational leadership a multiple regression model was developed. Furthermore, in order to eliminate subjectivities, we applied the transformation test of ordinal scales in a new Ridit-type scale until reaching the results.

Among the main findings, there is a model of direct and positive relationship between Transformational Leadership and University Management. We also found that the Enabling to Act dimension in Transformational Leadership is the one having the greatest impact in university management.

This work is the product of the doctoral thesis called "Theoretical Construct for University Management from the perspective of Transformational Leadership". presented for the UNY in Barquisimeto Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.

Keywords : leadership; transformational leadership; university management; linear regression model of transformational leadership and university management.
