Sumario: | The empirical evidence for the impact of leadership on learning outcomes may not be as incontrovertible as some would wish to portray. Equally the conception of what we mean by leadership may not be the simple, monolithic and unidimensional construct that is often portrayed in the simpler 'manuals' which seem to offer magic potions that will transform organizations through the application of certain heroic but superficial characteristics that, it is often suggested, represent good 'leadership'. Nonetheless those who work in educational and other organizations seem to know when they are well led and are often eager to express their indebtedness to colleagues who offer leadership, wherever they may be situated in the organizational structure. It is hoped that this text will provide a stimulating and challenging contribution to the debate on leadership which will challenge many prevailing orthodoxies but will also reaffirm the importance of high-quality leadership and leadership training development. |
