Abstract: Decision-making styles of leaders have been sufficiently explored and investigated; however, in the context of the Bangsamoro Region, too limited studies had been considered to engage on these variables such as the analytical, directive, conceptual and behavioral decision-making styles. It was for this reason that the researchers have been motivated to conduct the study on the decision-making styles of the State Universities and Colleges in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, Philippines using a descriptive quantitative research design and self-made survey questionnaire to the 149 executive officials as respondents of the study who were selected using the purposive sampling technique. Findings revealed that the extent of decision-making styles of educational leaders in terms of analytical decision-making was very effective and productive on the other hand, the extent of directive, conceptual and behavioral decision-making styles was effective and productive. It is concluded that when it comes to analytical decision-making, the educational leaders have shown exceptional skills than being directive, conceptual and behavioral decision makers considering that in the new normal, educational leaders need to be more critical thinkers in order to become more resilient on the tremendous changes in educational supervision and administration. The educational leaders should continue capacitating themselves by attending seminars, benchmarks, conferences, workshops, and a series of training related to decision-making for the sustainable and holistic development of education in the Bangsamoro community and throughout the world.
