Abstract :This study tries to determine the relationships between school principals' procrastination, workloads, and managerial resourcefulness employing the survey method. Data were collected using an online form that included 3 scales: the procrastination behavior scale of school administrators, the role-based workload scale, the managerial resourcefulness scale. Responses from 300 school principals were analyzed. Findings indicate that school principals' procrastination level is high, they perceive little workload, and they do not have satisfactory levels of managerial resourcefulness. It has been revealed that as principals’ workload and management resourcefulness increase, their procrastination levels diminish. Moreover, this research has observed that male school principals are more task-oriented than female principals.
