O knihe

This text provides comprehensive coverage of teachers and school trustees' perception towards principal's leadership qualities in 21st century context in a readable and educationalist - friendly format. There has been always a quest for Educational leadership that leads for the qualities of a good leader. Strengthening leadership is top of the agenda of almost every country in the world. This book is based on a research made by eminent Educationalist Dr. Sanjay Mehta from India in which a total of 1,000 teachers and 200 administrators- trustees- over 100 schools were studied for the perception towards principals' leadership qualities.The key findings are: teachers perceived principals as an academician, strong role model, effective communicator, mentor, and HR manager, whereas administrators- trustees have a different perception than teachers. They rather perceived principals as a strong role model, community leader and a care taker. At the same time both, teachers and administrators- trustees did not perceive principals as visionary, lifelong learner, and administrator and technocrat. This raises a serious question about the position, role and responsibilities of school leader.
