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

[Samantha Howell]

Principals need to address both the managerial and leadership aspects of
administration. When properly managing the school, the routine is well
rehearsed and everyone knows their job duties and expectations. The
principal also needs to be a productive leader and approachable to the
stakeholders. Teachers and staff need to have someone to look up to and
know that their leader has the best interests of the stakeholders in their
mind at all times. Stakeholders in the school system know that an effective
manager has an established schedule for the whole school and clear
expectations and goals for everyone. They need to be a good listener,
speaker, and be able to put themselves in the shoes of their stakeholders.
When administrators fail to address the leadership aspects of their
responsibilities, stakeholders can feel like they do not have someone that
is control or a definite chain of command. They can also feel like their
leader does not have the qualities to make their school effective as it
could be.
