    LEADERSHIP STYLES AND PERFORMANCE OF UGANDA NATIONAL TEACHERS’ UNION IN KIBUKU DISTRICT
    (Uganda Christian University, 2025-09-06) KYAMBAYA PATRICK
    This study investigated the effect of leadership styles on the performance of the Uganda National Teachers‘ Union (UNATU). Specifically, it examined the relationship between transformational, supportive, and participative leadership styles and UNATU‘s performance. The study targeted 100 respondents, with a sample of 80 selected using Krejcie and Morgan‘s table. Data were collected through questionnaires and interview guides and analyzed using SPSS version 20, with Pearson correlation employed to establish relationships between variables. Findings revealed a moderate, positive, and significant relationship between transformational leadership and UNATU performance (r = 0.505**, p = .000). Supportive leadership also showed a positive and significant, though slightly weaker, relationship (r = 0.390**, p = .001). Additionally, participative leadership demonstrated a moderate, positive, and significant relationship with performance (r = 0.532**, p = .000). These results indicate that all three leadership styles positively influence UNATU‘s effectiveness, with participative and transformational leadership emerging as stronger predictors of performance than supportive leadership. The study concludes that leadership style is a key determinant of union performance. It recommends that UNATU management strengthen transformational leadership by focusing on member development and recognizing individual strengths, enhance supportive leadership by valuing member contributions and aligning with their goals, and promote participative leadership by involving members in decision-making and encouraging open expression. Strengthening these approaches will improve member engagement and overall union performance.
