[Ous-lp-rp13] EDAD 6010, Answer to Question #1

[Amanda Luttrell]

A principal might be well-served to address both the managerial and
leadership aspects of administration because “Leadership without management
sets a direction or vision that others follow, without considering how the
new direction is going to be achieved.  Other people then have to work hard
in the trail that is left behind, picking up the pieces and making it
work,” according to the *Team Technology website *article *“Leadership
Without Management.” * Although it may be difficult to be both a the
managerial and leader in administration, it is a key aspect for success.
Stakeholders assume that leaders make a difference and are largely
responsible for school performance. Therefore, stakeholders can find
positive and/or negative aspects of effective managers. Effective managers
and leaders are classified into three characteristic groups: *personality*
(self-confidence, stress tolerance, emotional maturity, integrity, and
extroversion), *motivation* (task and interpersonal needs, achievement
orientation, power needs, expectation, self-efficacy), and *skills*
(technical, interpersonal, and conceptual). All three groups/skills are
required of effective leaders and stakeholders often find them as positive
characteristics in principals. Anyone who works for managers that do not
display leadership qualities usually feel unsupported when a problem
arises.
