摘要：Abstract This study used Bolman and Deal's (2008) framework to examine the leadership orientations of a dean of a private university in Malaysia. The LOS-self instrument was administered to the dean while the LOS-other instrument was administered to 35 of the dean's staff reporting directly to her. Results show that the dean perceived her leadership orientations slightly different compared to her staff. Gender, age, academic qualification, current position held, number of years spent in their current job and managerial experience did not cause any significant differences in outcomes of the study. The dean exhibited two frames, which implies that it is necessary for future deans to be trained for leadership skill to meet the growing demands of the job.
