This study aims to identify teachers’ cultural value profiles and to investigate how each profile moderates the empirical link between principal transformational leadership and teacher job satisfaction. Gathering data from a sample of 1062 teachers in 113 elementary and lower secondary schools in Türkiye, this cross-sectional study conducted latent profile analysis with moderation modelling to measure the structural links between study variables. Results showed that the sampled teachers were categorized under four profiles: decisive and participatory culture, flexible collaboration culture, rule-oriented culture, and respectful authority culture. The study also provided evidence of the significant moderator role of cultural values profiles on the association between transformational leadership and job satisfaction with the work environment and the profession. We provide implications for policy and practice.
