Abstract

Middle leaders are the intermediary between the senior leadership team and teachers in school. The duties of educational leaders are very challenging as public expectations towards educational institutions have increased tremendously. To ensure that the headmasters and principals are more competitive, middle leaders must be competent enough to complement the efforts to realize the school’s vision and mission. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to obtain an initial understanding of middle leadership complexity in Malaysia. The study applies the Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) to gauge expert agreement on the relevance of the middle leadership dimensions, i.e., management, communication, emotional intelligence, supervision, leading professional learning communities, strategic, change leadership, and digital literacy. An instrument comprised of 90 items across eight dimensions was submitted to a panel of 20 experts from various fields and backgrounds to secure consensus regarding the pertinence of the dimensions. The analysis indicates that all items have met the FDM threshold (d) < 0.2, α-cut value > 0.5, and expert agreement > 75%. The defuzzification process was implemented to rank the dimensions according to the rankings agreed upon by the experts and improve theinstrument. The study successfully verified the relevant middle leadership dimensions that were pertinent to the contemporary era based on FDM.
