Research introduces Contextual Pedagogical Leadership (CPL) as a construct for culturally grounded leadership practices among Malaysian pre-service teachers. The study aims to develop and validate CPL indicators specifically aligned with Malaysia's educational context, utilizing a decolonial perspective and the Modified Fuzzy Delphi Method.

It highlights the necessity of decolonial approaches in developing leadership indicators, which can improve the effectiveness and relevance of educational leadership training and practice in specific regions.

  • The research specifically focuses on Malaysian pre-service teachers and their unique cultural and educational context.
  • A decolonial perspective is being applied to challenge Western-centric leadership frameworks.
  • The Modified Fuzzy Delphi Method is used for the development and validation of these CPL indicators.
