Abstract

The present study aims to determine whether the professional development programs offered to educational leaders in Punjab, Lahore, positively impact their performance and whether promotion-linked training motivates participation. Specifically, this research endeavours to elucidate the effects of promotion-linked training on professional growth, leadership styles, decision-making capabilities, communication competencies, student outcomes, and institutional efficacy. Both quantitative and qualitative methodologies were employed to examine the performance of 82 male and female educational administrators in the Lahore district of Punjab. Data regarding research questions were collected via questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Results indicate that promotion-linked training exerts a significant positive influence on educational leaders' job performance. Such in-service development opportunities enhanced administrators' knowledge and skills, yielding improved institutional outcomes. In conclusion, this study underscores the instrumental role of promotion-based development programs in optimizing educational leaders' effectiveness.
