Abstract As the world transitions into the post-pandemic era, this study aims to explore the influence of school heads' new normal competencies on teachers' psychological well-being. The study examines the characteristics of new normal leadership competencies, including adaptability, decision-making, and planning and implementation, as well as the indicators of teachers' psychological well-being, such as autonomy, environmental mastery, personal growth, positive relations with others, purpose in life, and self-acceptance.
