본 연구는 유아교육기관장의 변혁적 리더십 유형이 기관 운영관리에 미치는 영향을 알아보는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 서울시내 기관 50개를 임의로 선정하여 유아교육기관 교사 174명을 대상으로 기관장의 리더십 유형과 유아교육기관 운영관리 정도를 측정하였다. 수집된 설문지를 토대로 신뢰도 검증, 독립표본 t 검증, 단순 상관관계 분석과 중다회귀 분석을 한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 기관장의 변혁적 리더십의 인식과 기관 운영관리 간의 관계를 분석한 결과, 변혁적 리더십에 대한 전반적인 인식도는 높았고, 두 연구변인 간에 의미 있는 정적상관관계가 나타났다. 둘째, 기관 교사들의 개인적 변인에 따른 리더십유형에 차이 분석결과 학력에 따라(대졸이상-전문대졸이하)도덕적 리더십에는 유의미한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타나 부분적으로 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 변혁적 리더십이 기관운영에 미치는 영향에 대한 분석결과 변혁적 리더십이 기관 운영관리에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 정치적, 교육적, 문화적 리더십 순으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이런 의미는 유아교육기관들이 지속적인 변화와 경쟁, 정책 및 관리감독 강화를 통한 보육의 질을 요구받고 있다는 점에서 그 어느 때보다 기관장들의 변혁적 리더십을 중요하다는 것을 시사한다.
