| This study aimed to examine the effect of transformational leadership (TL) on teachers_ creativity (TC) in the United Arab Emirates public schools. The study employed a quantitative approach. The sample of 420 teachers was selected using a random sampling technique. This study further employed T-Test and Multiple Regression to analyse the hypotheses. Findings revealed significant effect of teacher gender on TL(IS) (t=9.388, F=11.567, p=0.000) with men (M = 2.8094, SD=0.89162) attaining higher scores than women (M=1.998, SD=0.775). On TL(IC), there was significant effect of gender (t=6.031, F=4.033, p=0.000) with men (M = 2.707, SD=1.074) attaining higher scores than women (M=2.03, SD=1.119). On TL(IM) there was a significant effect of gender (t=6.500, F=3.311, p=0.000) with men (M = 2.8058, SD=1.082) attaining higher scores than women (M=2.109, SD=0.995. On TL(II), gender showed a significant effect (t=6.638, 6.759, p=0.000) with men (M = 2.839, SD=1.059) attaining higher scores than women. The findings also indicated the significant effect of teacher gender on teacher creativity (TC) components Fluency and Flexibility (FF). Findings show that teacher gender has a significant effect (t=6.264, F= 21.642, p=0.000) with men (M = 2.683, SD=1.221) attaining higher scores than women (M=1.974, SD=0.937). Findings on TL based on teacher experience showed that TL differs significantly across levels of teacher experience with the mean difference across group 1-4 showing significant difference (P=0.000). Further, Finding TC based on teacher experience showed that teacher creativity differs significantly for FF and (independent learning) IL (FFF=15.313, and FIL=9.567), (Pff = 000, PIL =.000). Finding the influence of TL and TC a significant regression equation was found (F= 2.001, P |
