Özet: The aim of this study is to develop a scale that determines the agile leadership properties of school administrators In the development process of the scale, 96 items were created and presented for the evaluation of expert views. After the scope validity processes held via Lawshe analysis, 8 items were taken out of the scale. 1056 teachers work at different school levels in Istanbul were subjected to the draft scale, which was comprised of 88 items, in 2018-2019 academic year. In order to detect the structural validity of the scale, principle components analysis and factor analysis were conducted and Varimax vertical rotation process was held. As a result of these analysis, a 5 factored (emotional agility, digital literacy and technological agility, synergetic agility, shared responsibility and proactivity agility, openness to innovations and adaptative agility) scale that explains 82.92% of the total variance and that was comprised of 56 items was obtained. For reliability, five sub-scales that were detected as a result of Cronbach’s α (.94) coefficients for the totality of the scale were calculated and in order to determine the correlation between each item and the scale, item-total correlation analysis was conducted. Moreover, factors determined with regards to the analysis held via t test (bottom-top 27%) were determined as distinguishing. The results obtained prove that the scale is valid and reliable.
