          Abstract The purpose of the current research was to investigate the relationship between leadership styles and conflict management strategies of high school principals. This was a descriptive research and a correlational one. 102 high school principals participated in this study. They were selected out of 141 through simple random sampling. Two questionnaires he purpose of data collection: (a) Bass & Avolio's Leadership Style (2000) and (b) Putnam and Wilson's Conflict Management (1994). Content validity of questionnaires was confirmed by experts and their reliability was calculated through Cronbach’s alpha coefficient accounting as 0.84 and 0.85 respectively. Pearson's Correlation, step by step Regression, and Independent T were used for data analysis. The results of research showed a meaningful correlation coefficient between transformational and transactional leadership styles and solution– oriented strategy, and also between laissez–faire leadership style with control and non–intervention strategy. But no meaningful relationship was observed between transformational and transactional leadership styles and control and non– intervention strategy, and also between laissez–faire leadership style with solution–oriented strategy. The best anticipation for non–intervention is strategy laissez–faire leadership style, solution oriented strategy transformational leadership style and control strategy in first step and laissez–faire leadership style and transactional leadership style in the second step.   Manuscript profile
