Name: The Principalship: Manager to Leader
ID: m12924
Language: English (en)
Summary: A principal’s role in a school is changing from that of a manager to that of a leader. No longer is simply managing a school well enough, a principal must lead the school to reach its fullest potential. To accomplish this Sergiovanni (2005) suggest that a principal become a servant leader. Through purposing, empowerment, and leadership by outrage a principal leans how to serve the school and not themselves.
