The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship between school principals' agile leadership and innovation management competencies according to teacher perceptions. The research is in the scanning model, which is one of the descriptive research methods. The study group of the research consists of primary school teachers working in Sahinbey district of Gaziantep province. The sample of the study consists of 375 teachers who were determined by the "Simple Random Sampling" method from the population. Research data were collected with "Agile Leadership" and "Innovation Management" scales. In the study, correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between the variables, and multiple regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between agile leadership competancy on innovation management competency. When the research findings were examined, it was concluded that there was a positive and highly significant relationship between teachers' perceptions of school principals' agile leadership and their perceptions of innovation management competencies (r=0.61; p=0.000; p<0.05). According to the results of the regression analysis, teachers' agile leadership perceptions significantly predict their perceptions on innovation management competency ([delta]R[superscript 2] change =0.615, p<0.001). Based on the research data, it was concluded that the increase in teachers' agile leadership perception increased their perception of innovation management competence. In addition, school principals can create the organizational culture and structure necessary for agile leadership by increasing their ability to share responsibility and be effective, and thus increase teachers' perceptions of agile leadership and innovation management competencies.
