Due to the changes in society and the new era of “super-diversity” (Vertovec, 2007) in European countries, intercultural competence is gaining importance both in everyday life situations and teacher training. In the academic year of 2014/2105, a research was conducted on a sample of 136 prospective secondary school teachers undergoing their pedagogical-didactical-methodological training in different universities in the Republic of Croatia. The tool that was employed in the self-assessment of intercultural competence was called Recognising intercultural competence: What shows that I am interculturally competent? The results showed that the examinees perceive their intercultural competence quite high; attitudes (M = 4,09); skills (M = 4,12); knowledge (M = 4,02). There is no significant difference between the perceived dimensions (p = ,282). Further research is recommended to better understand the insights about the examinees’ understanding of intercultural competence.

Questionnaire surveys were completed by 92 teachers from both respective schools. The findings of this research show that all of Kelley’s Followership Styles (exemplary, alienated, pragmatist, conformist and passive) were represented in the followership styles of primary and secondary school teachers at AIS. The most common followership style is the exemplary style which was practiced by 39 (42.3%) of the teachers. Furthermore, the findings show that there was a significant difference in followership styles between the male primary and secondary school teachers of AIS. However, there was no significant difference in followership styles between the female primary and secondary school teachers of AIS. In general, there was no significant difference of followership styles between both schools. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that the exemplary followership style be adopted, since it is especially suited to helping followers achieve exemplary levels that can help promote higher standards of organizational performance. Suggestions concerning further research on the subject of followership are also presented.   Abstrak:     Tujuan kajian kuantitatif ini adalah untuk menyiasat jurang antara guru sekolah rendah dan sekolah menengah dalam gaya kepengikutan di sebuah sekolah swasta Islam di Malaysia.
