Abstract: The study explored the conceptual factors of college administrators as determinants of employees’ leadership satisfaction of Iloilo Science and Technology University (ISATU) during School Year 2015-2016. The respondents were the 56 employees, teaching and non-teaching, representing the five different campuses. The researcher used standardized questionnaires lumped in one, the Conceptual Factors and Leadership Satisfaction Questionnaire (CFLSQ), in order to gather data. The study revealed that dedication and commitment to work, courtesy and respect, and honesty in the delivery of the duties and responsibilities form a bunch of personal characteristics of a good leader. Moreover, high level of educational attainment such as PhD or EdD coupled with the behaviour of attending and conducting seminars and workshops make a good leader. The act of seeking for continuous professional growth and improvement also makes a good leader. Campus administrators had good leadership skills, management skills, work values and work motivation. They made a positive impression in the field both in teaching and non-teaching personnel. Teaching personnel are more satisfied than non-teaching on the leadership of campus administrators. Leadership skills is the highest predictor of the leadership satisfaction, although the three other factors are also predictors. The proposed Leadership Satisfaction Model states that: The employee’s leadership satisfaction is based on the leader’s personal characteristics, which are embodied in his work motivation and work values and professional characteristics, which are exemplified in his management and leadership skills. A similar study is recommended to validate the results.
