In this piece of research three case studies of Greek elementary schools were examined in depth in order to find out the perceptions of school teachers with regards to the leadership style of their school principals. The guiding research hypothesis was that the effectiveness of a leader depends (to a great extent) on the way that others see him/her as a leader, i.e., on their perceptions of this person as a leader. In general, it was evident that teachers had a positive stand towards their principals, but at the same time, there are a few areas in which these principals need to improve, such as personnel management, professional development and relations with parents and the community at large. Moreover, the bureaucratic and centralized nature of the Greek education system seems to be inconclusive and needs to be abandoned. Finally, school principals need to be trained in the area of educational administration and leadership and some motives need to be offered to them.
