        abstract = {The present study investigates the impact of transformational leadership on faculty performance and job satisfaction in private colleges of Nagaland. Leadership plays a vital role in shaping the effectiveness, work culture, and overall performance of educational institutions. In recent years, transformational leadership has gained importance due to its ability to inspire, motivate, and support faculty members in achieving both individual and institutional goals. Private colleges in Nagaland, while contributing significantly to higher education, face challenges such as limited resources, varying faculty motivation, and the need to improve academic standards, making effective leadership essential.
Data were collected from a sample of 100 faculty members selected through Simple random sampling. A structured questionnaire based on a five-point Likert scale was used to measure transformational leadership practices, faculty performance, and job satisfaction. The collected data were analyzed using percentage analysis to examine the relationships among the variables.
The findings of the study indicate that transformational leadership practices are positively perceived by faculty members in private colleges of Nagaland. A majority of respondents reported that leadership practices such as clear vision, encouragement of innovation, individual support, and motivation significantly enhance their teaching performance and professional growth. These results suggest that supportive and inspiring leadership contributes to higher levels of faculty satisfaction and commitment.
The study concludes that transformational leadership plays a crucial role in improving faculty performance and job satisfaction in private colleges of Nagaland. The findings may help college administrators adopt effective leadership practices to enhance institutional effectiveness and faculty well-being.},
