Abstract: This article provides insight into administrators' teacher influencing tactics. The data are collected from the teachers at secondary level schools in Turkey and in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. We employed a quantitative survey by means of three different scales and utilized SEM modeling to test the model fit indexes of the scales aiming to examine administrators' teacher influencing tactics and to examine teachers' organizational commitment and perceptions of school mindfulness. The results signified a meaningful relationship between teachers' organizational commitment, school mindfulness and administrators' teacher influencing tactics. The administrators' influencing tactics increase the teachers' organizational commitment, whereas these tactics decrease the teachers' organizational commitment. Moreover, Administrators' teacher influencing tactics reduce school mindfulness but increase teachers' organizational commitment.
