Results: Physical education teachers exhibited high levels of both wise leadership (M = 167.325, SD = 6.108) and self-management (M = 158.414, SD = 6.715), both significantly exceeding theoretical midpoints (p < 0.001). Pearson correlation analysis demonstrated an extraordinarily strong, statistically significant positive correlation between wise leadership and self-management (r = 0.942, p < 0.001).
