Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between collegial management attributes (Human relations, Group working, Flexibility, and New method in education management) and school managerial effectiveness in secondary schools in Zhengzhou, Henan Province. The study was guided by social exchange theory to explain the framework. Using a quantitative research design, the study collected valid data from 287 respondents (school managers) in the regions via purposive sampling. Data was collected using a survey questionnaire, and regression analysis was performed. The study’s findings demonstrated positive relationships between human relations and group work in enhancing the school’s managerial effectiveness. However, flexibility and new education methods were found not the predictors of school managerial effectiveness. Based on these findings, the study suggests that school managers create collaboration by fostering a culture in which everyone feels valued, appreciated, and encouraged to contribute ideas. To promote effectiveness and job agility, school managers should adopt a flexible approach and be open to new methods. Future research for this study may benefit from a qualitative approach to gain a better understanding of how and why these factors can influence managerial effectiveness.
