This article is a continuation of the work of scientists of the Educational Leadership Department regarding the study of the state of personal readiness to change and the peculiarities of the motivational sphere in the professional activity of the heads of capital’s schools. During martial law, the authors conducted repeated surveys of respondents in order to compare the results obtained over three years and to monitor the dynamics of changes. For this, the following methods were used: «Personal readiness for change» (A. Rolnic, S. Heather, M. Gold, C. Hull); «Motivation of professional activity» (K. Zamfir in the modification of A. Rean); «Self-efficacy scale» (R. Schwarzer, M. Jerusalem), as well respondents were asked several questions about the attitude to innovations, formulated by the authors of the study in the context of the theory of innovation diffusion by Everett Rogers. Based on the results of the conducted research, we can state that the trends we identified in 2021 will continue in 2022 and 2023. School leaders have a stable personal «psychological structure» based on their ingenuity, passion, and self-confidence. Low level of tolerance for uncertainty; adaptability; courage; optimism gives grounds for concern in the future development of educational institutions in the city of Kyiv in the conditions of post-war reconstruction of the country. Internal motivation for the professional activity of school leaders prevails over external motivation.
