Abstract
Se analizó la relación entre el liderazgo transformacional (TL) de los directivos y las percepciones del clima organizacional (CLIMOR) en una institución educativa fiscal ecuatoriana. Mediante un diseño correlacional descriptivo, se aplicó el Cuestionario MLQ-5X adaptado al contexto ecuatoriano y el CLIOUNing a una muestra de 50 docentes. Se encontraron correlaciones significativas moderadas entre las dimensiones del TL y el CLIMOR (r= 0.39 - 0.58, p < .01). Se desprende de esto que los directivos que adoptan comportamientos transformacionales contribuyen a la generación de ambientes organizacionales más favorables para el desarrollo educativo, siendo particularmente relevantes la motivación inspiracional y la consideración individual como predictores del clima organizacional positivo.
