Uzbekistan: A State Undergoing Total Reconstruction

This study attempts to demonstrate the reform strategies implemented in the last three years in Uzbekistan. The author focuses on analyzing the implementation of five priorities of this strategy - the dialogue between the authorities and society, human resources and management system, economy and social sphere, and security and foreign policy. He devotes a great deal of attention to present the image of the architect of these reforms - the president of the state. He emphasizes that the style of exercising power, including the implementation of reforms by Shavkat Mirziyoyev, fits into the model of transformational leadership.

This quantitative study aimed at establishing the effect that the type of leadership style adopted by the head teacher has on the employed tutor’s satisfaction. The study sample comprised 11 school head teachers and 109 tutors. The research utilized two tools in the collection of data, the first of which was used for head teachers and the other for tutors in the institution. The research instrument used to collect data in relation to this dependent variable was a Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS) questionnaire. This tool comprises 29 questions with Likert-type items that deal with job satisfaction. The results of the study show that the leadership style employed by the head teacher does not affect tutor satisfaction in a statistically significant way.
