The present study aims to investigate the relationship between work culture and leadership behaviour of B.Ed. college principals and further, to analyze the effect of leadership behaviour on the work culture of B.Ed. colleges. The independent variable considered was Leadership Behaviour, while the dependent variable was Work Culture. The study also explored the influence of background variables such as gender, type of college and locality. A sample of 130 B.Ed. teacher educators from B.Ed. colleges affiliated with Bangalore Collegiate Education in Bangalore Urban and Rural Districts was selected for the study. Data were collected using self-developed tools–the Leadership Behaviour Scale and the Work Culture Scale for B.Ed. Colleges. Data were analyzed by using independent ‘t’ test and correlation, with the help of SPSS and MS Excel. The level of significance was set at 0.05 and 0.01 levels. The findings revealed a significant positive relationship between leadership behaviour and work culture. The analysis of background variables showed no significant difference based on gender. However, private aided colleges exhibited a better work culture than private unaided colleges. Similarly, urban colleges demonstrated a more positive work culture compared to rural colleges.
