This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to provide practicing and aspiring superintendents and school board presidents with insights into the various leadership frameworks that superintendents and school board presidents utilize to lead and govern a school district. In this study, the researcher identified the dominant leadership frames based on the self-perceptions of the superintendents and school board presidents of Texas public schools. A quantitative approach was used in this study in determining the correlation among superintendents and school board presidents’ leadership frames using Bolman and Deal’s (1993) Leadership Orientation Survey–Self instrument. School superintendents and school board presidents in Texas public schools are leaders of their school districts. The job performance of both is informed by the leadership styles each embraces. It is imperative that school superintendents and school board presidents possess multiple skills in working with the various personalities within the school district. Therefore, both should develop a collaborative leadership style while also surrounding themselves with quality individuals that are knowledgeable in specific areas, and consistently communicate the vision. Further, school superintendents and school board presidents must buy into the mission of their school district and advocate for all students.

Book School Board Presidents  Perceptions of the Superintendent Selection Process

Download or read book School Board Presidents Perceptions of the Superintendent Selection Process written by Robert A. Rasmussen and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: School districts face enormous challenges with recent reductions in fiscal resources due to cuts in California's state budget and an average tenure for a school superintendent of only 3 years. School boards are challenged to find a leader who can address the needs of the school district during these difficult times. As numerous school superintendents are retiring, and a new generation of educators is applying for key positions in educational leadership, it is important to better understand the perceptions of school board presidents who have experience in selecting a school superintendent. This study explored the perceptions of the superintendent selection process of five participating school board presidents. The participants in this study shared their perceptions of the superintendent search process and selection criteria, perceptions on the most important leadership characteristics desired in a superintendent, and perceptions in the standards used to measure leadership in the candidates selected as superintendent. The findings revealed several components of the selection process that will serve school boards in evaluating the best strategy for them in conducting the superintendent search. When school boards embark on the process of selecting a superintendent, their actions become very public and ultimately reflect on how they view community involvement and input into on-going district leadership. As a result, a well-defined plan of action will reflect well on the school board, build community trust, and set the stage for a positive transition to new leadership at the superintendent level. The assertion that selecting a superintendent may very well be the school board's most important duty of action, it is imperative that such a process be articulated and integrated within the scope of district need and community involvement.

Book School Board Presidents  Perceptions of the Changing Role of the Superintendent

Download or read book School Board Presidents Perceptions of the Changing Role of the Superintendent written by Ella H. Musser and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was developed to investigate school board presidents' perspectives of the changing role of the superintendent. Thirty-one presidents of public schools located in 8 southeastern Pennsylvania counties participated in an online survey consisting of multiple-choice, Likert-scale, and open-ended questions. The questions collected data on board presidents' perspectives about the role of the superintendent and how it is changing, perspectives about leadership skills necessary for effective district leadership and how the importance of various skills might be changing, and perspectives regarding changes in communication patterns between the board and the superintendent. Nine board presidents also participated in a follow-up interview consisting of 8 related questions. Results indicate that participating board presidents perceive the role of the superintendent to be increasing in complexity, especially in the areas of school finance, communication with stakeholders, and academic achievement. Furthermore, results suggest that participating board presidents consider effective communication and financial management as increasingly important skills for successful district leadership. Finally, results indicate that in the represented districts, communication between the superintendent and the board has become more frequent and detailed, and that the communication is often presented in electronic formats. These findings offer direction for prospective superintendents as they seek to develop effective leadership skills, for board presidents as they support the work of the superintendents, and for current superintendents as they seek ways to grow and develop their professional skills.

Book The Politics of Leadership

Download or read book The Politics of Leadership written by George J. Petersen and published by IAP. This book was released on 2006-07-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary contribution of this book, is not its advocacy of a specific position but rather, its objective analysis of cogent topics. The content prompts us to consider governance in relation to quality education and to ponder alternative policy strategies that have yet to be fully evaluated. As a young doctoral student more than a few years ago, William Van Til, an eminent scholar and a mentor, reminded me almost daily that members of the education profession had a moral responsibility to address the most difficult questions about education and democracy. These enduring queries, he argued, extended to determining how this critical social service should be organized and controlled and to determining the appropriate roles for administrators and teachers. Those in our profession who fail to heed his advice by remaining indifferent to these philosophical dilemmas should consider Plato’s long-standing warning: “One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors."
