Abstract

The study aimed to determine the relationship professional leadership style to the adversity quotient of the academic administrators of selected state universities and colleges in Region VIII. Using the descriptive - correlational research design the instruments consisted of four parts: the personal characteristics, leadership style survey developed by Don Clark and adversity quotient by Stoltz (2012). Majority of the academic administrators were female, married and belonged to 50-59 age group. The academic administrators were doctoral degree holders and worked in the academe for 21 years and above. Most of them had associate professor I-V position. The overall adversity quotient of the academic administrators was categorized as low. Delegative style of leadership was adopted by academic leaders. On the test of hypothesis on the significant relationship between the professional leadership characteristics and the four dimensions of adversity quotient of the academic administrators were not significantly related. Based from the results of the study, adversity quotient should be included as one of the job qualifications to people who work in the academe to improve organizational performance and adopt the LEAD sequence of Stoltz (2012) in improving a person's adversity quotient.
