The relationship between inclusive leadership in sustainable education and teachers' subjective wellbeing in Türkiye: the mediating role of affective commitment

The findings of the study reveal that inclusive leadership is significantly associated with teachers' subjective wellbeing. Practically, these results highlight the importance of leadership practices that foster transparency, accessibility, participation, and valuing teacher input. Integrating inclusive leadership principles into leadership training programmes and educational policy frameworks may strengthen teachers' motivation, organizational commitment, and wellbeing. Such practices may also reduce stress and burnout among teachers, contributing to more sustainable and supportive school environments. Future research may further examine these associations across different school types and cultural contexts.
