Abstract

In the south-west of Nigeria, this research looked at transformational educational leadership as a driver of educational development. The intended sample included 40 department heads, five vice deans, and five deans from the College of Education in Ikere. A self-made questionnaire served as the data gathering tool. At a significance threshold of 0.05, the obtained data were examined using descriptive (mean & standard deviation) and inferential (PPMC) statistics. The findings demonstrated that inspiring motivation, idealized influence, and intellectual stimulation are transformational leadership traits that act as a catalyst for educational growth and development in South-West Nigeria. Therefore, in order to improve performance, the government, university administration, and management should guarantee the availability of contemporary research facilities and promote faculty mentorship and idea-sharing.
