Öz

This study examined the relationship between empowering leadership and organizational happiness based on teachers’ perceptions. It also investigated whether teachers’ views on these variables differed according to gender, educational level, marital status, professional seniority, school type, and duration of working with the current principal. A relational survey model, one of the quantitative research designs, was employed. The study population consisted of teachers working at various educational levels (preschool, primary, secondary, and high school) in Malatya during the 2024–2025 academic year. The sample included 778 teachers selected through the convenience sampling method. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, Empowering Leadership Scale, and Organizational Happiness Scale. Arithmetic mean, standard deviation, independent samples t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and simple linear regression analyses were performed. The findings indicated that teachers reported high levels of empowering leadership and organizational happiness. Furthermore, a moderate and positive relationship was found between these variables. Empowering leadership was also identified as a significant predictor of organizational happiness, explaining approximately 48.7% of the variance.

Öz

Bu araştırmada, öğretmenlerin algılarına göre güçlendirici liderlik ile örgütsel mutluluk arasındaki ilişki incelenmiştir. Ayrıca öğretmenlerin güçlendirici liderlik ve örgütsel mutluluğa ilişkin görüşlerinin; cinsiyet, öğrenim durumu, medeni durum, mesleki kıdem, okul türü ve mevcut okul müdürüyle çalışma süresi değişkenlerine göre farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığı belirlenmiştir. Araştırma, nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden ilişkisel tarama modelinde desenlenmiştir. Evreni, 2024–2025 eğitim-öğretim yılında Malatya ilindeki farklı kademelerde (okul öncesi, ilkokul, ortaokul, lise) görev yapan öğretmenler oluşturmuştur. Örneklem, kolayda örnekleme yöntemiyle seçilen 778 öğretmenden oluşmaktadır. Veriler “Kişisel Bilgi Formu”, “Güçlendirici Liderlik Ölçeği” ve “Örgütsel Mutluluk Ölçeği” ile toplanmış; analizlerde aritmetik ortalama, standart sapma, bağımsız örneklemler t-testi, ANOVA, Pearson korelasyon ve basit doğrusal regresyon teknikleri kullanılmıştır. Bulgular, öğretmenlerin güçlendirici liderlik ve örgütsel mutluluk düzeylerinin yüksek olduğunu ve iki değişken arasında pozitif yönlü, orta düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki bulunduğunu göstermiştir. Ayrıca, güçlendirici liderliğin örgütsel mutluluğun anlamlı bir yordayıcısı olduğu ve toplam varyansın yaklaşık %48,7’sini açıkladığı belirlenmiştir.
