| Sumario: | This article analyzes the personal leadership resources utilized by a sample of school principals in Catalonia (Spain) during the confinement and post-confinement periods due to the COVID-19 crisis. A questionnaire was designed, validated, and provided to the principals from Primary Education schools to carry out the study. The questionnaire analyzed personal leadership resources used by the principals during the confinement and post-confinement periods, compared to a former ¨normal situation¨. The data analysis results confirmed that the role of the principals was crucial in redirecting the situation and completing the academic course satisfactorily. The principals scored their leadership resources remarkably high in the former normality and maintained proactivity at a similar level during the crisis. However, other resources scored lower during the same period. As a direct result, there was a high degree of adaptation to this situation from the principals. The results indicate that principals do not lead in the same manner in times of crisis as in normal times. Age, experience, and type of school influence the results only in former normal situations but not in times of crisis. |
