The current study investigated academic leadership preparedness and leadership styles of 372 academic leaders of Indian higher education institutes. Data were collected through online survey and through post on printed version of the survey inventories. Results indicate that leadership style of academic leaders was related to their level of leadership preparedness. Leaders with paired leadership styles were found to be more prepared for academic leadership than leaders with single leadership style. It was also found that leaders with diffused leadership style or no clear leadership style were least prepared for their role of leadership in the group. Results have significant implications for designing appropriate leadership development and management training programs. Implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.Keywords
