The aim of the study was to classify variables such as school administrators' management experience, level of education, leadership competencies, organizational innovation, job satisfaction, workload and stress, and stakeholder participation in terms of differences and similar characteristics and to create a profile of school administrators. The document analysis method, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the study. Latent profile analysis, which focuses on determining latent subpopulations in a specific variable set, was used in the document analysis. Data obtained from the Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) 2018, conducted at all ISCED levels (primary, secondary and high school) in Türkiye, were used in the study. In this direction, a total of 971 participant opinions were included in the analysis. In the analysis of the data, descriptive statistics were first calculated, and then profile analysis was performed in the R program. The "mclust" approach was used to determine the model that provided the best fit to the data in the profile analysis. As a result of the analysis of the data, seven different leadership profiles were found.

Çalışmanın amacı, okul yöneticilerinin yönetim deneyimi, eğitim düzeyi, liderlik yetkinlikleri, örgütsel yenilikçilik, iş tatmini, iş yükü ve stresi, paydaş katılımı gibi değişkenleri farklılıklar ve benzer özellikler açısından sınıflandırmak ve okul yöneticilerinin profilini oluşturmaktır. Çalışmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden biri olan doküman analizi yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Doküman analizinde, belirli bir değişken kümesindeki latent alt popülasyonları belirlemeye odaklanan latent profil analizi kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada, Türkiye'deki tüm ISCED seviyelerinde (ilkokul, ortaokul ve lise) uygulanan Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) 2018'den elde edilen veriler kullanılmıştır. Bu doğrultuda toplam 971 katılımcı görüşü analize dahil edilmiştir. Verilerin analizinde önce betimsel istatistikler hesaplanmış, ardından R programında profil analizi yapılmıştır. Profil analizinde verilere en iyi uyumu sağlayan modeli belirlemek için "mclust" yaklaşımı kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizi sonucunda yedi farklı liderlik profili bulunmuştur.
