The data of the research was collected through a semi-structured interview form with six questions. It was revealed that modesty and empathy, which are the characteristic features of Fifth Level Leadership, contributed to teachers\\\' willingness to go to school. In the research, it was determined that teachers who worked with Level Five Leaders went to work happily and peacefully, and their professional self-efficacy was contributed to.
