This book was released on 1997-08-19 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Willower and Licata encourage administrators to use reflective, values-oriented and valuation-oriented practice in their day-to-day lives. The authors provide tools to help assign value and valuation to the decisions administrators must make. The goal is to make informed choices about even the most complicated education issues. Willower and Licata present a practical approach to administration aimed at * Anticipating the consequences of alternative courses of action * Cultivating the ability to "see" desirable futures for the school or district * Choosing intelligently among competing values Administrators can help improve the school lives of administrators-in-training, school leaders, staff, and students by encouraging this type of thoughtful practice as an everyday reality. They can begin by developing a workable process by which any administrator can make informed choices about issues. Learn how to advocate thoughtful practice and valuation-based decision making to help become (or teach others to become) better, more effective school administrators. Willower and Licata provide the tools to successfully develop a process of assigning value and valuation to decisions every school leader must make. Here is the spark an educational leader needs to practice or teach sound, caring, value-based decision making. Exercises, cases, and vignettes help translate philosophies and ideas into real-life practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text calls for a broader approach to comparative educational administration: one which uses culture as the principle means of analysis. The articles collected by Allan Walker and Clive Dimmock detail the educational practices and outcomes of other systems while taking into account the mediating influence of culture. In this way, these essays stress the specific aspects of the cultures studied, and map out common ground for the study of administrators' values, beliefs, and actions.

This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on management in school administration. It explains that school administrators play a vital role in the success of a school. Therefore, it is of the utmost importance that these leaders and future school leaders understand how to be integrative thinkers. It has been proven that integrative thinkers are more effective leaders and effective leaders create successful work environments. Further it elaborates on school-based management which involves the formal change in the structures of school governance that leads to a more democratic administrative approach in which planning and decision making are devolved to the individual school and role of principal where the conceptual notion at work here is that of creating a bridge between the performance field and a practice field. It also emphasizes on superintendent preparation and training school leadership preparation etc.

This book was released on 2021-09-23 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a timely and comprehensive response to the widely acknowledged serious failings in our current knowledge of organizational leadership and culture, providing an ecologically inspired approach which unifies knowledge and practice across all of the pivotal organisational elements of leadership, culture, teamwork, creativity, complexity and wisdom. Drawing on case studies from Australia and New Zealand, Branson and Marra argue that just as ecosystems are systems of connected elements through which the energy needed to maintain the health of the system must readily flow, an organisation is also a connected system that equally requires a healthy flow of energy in order to achieve its core purpose. Their theory of organizational ecology describes how organizational connectivity, as revealed by the quality of the relationships among the people and the parts of the organization, provides the conduit through which the essential energy (in the form of knowledge, information, ideas, innovation, and support sharing) must flow. Through the application of the theory of organizational ecology, Branson and Marra illustrate how a leader must grow their leadership knowledge and wisdom in order to develop the organization's people and culture so that it is fully able to accomplish the desired vision, mission and core purpose.

The text includes multiple perspectives that challenge readers to synthesize the material into an effective administrative platform and to make productive choices in arriving at problem solutions.

Educational Administration presents the major aspects of administration and the complex set of problems and performance assessment challenges that administrators face every day. It emphasizes a number of important challenges like the increasing diversity in our schools and society and the impact of reforms and technology on learning environments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time of high educational expectations and professional accountability, today's educational leaders need to possess a broad variety of skills that enable them to function comfortably and effectively in changing environments and under highly politicized conditions. Under these circumstances, change is the only constant. The mission of this book is to foster understanding of this reality among those preparing for administrative and managerial careers in pre-collegiate educational institutions and to help them develop skills necessary for working competently within those institutions. This text is eclectic in approach, not ideological, and emphasizes an action-research perspective that compels readers to consider critically the theoretical underpinnings of current educational practice and motivates them to seek practical alternative approaches to solving both common and unique problems. This book addresses general principles underlying the knowledge base of leadership and management as specifically applied to educational institutions. It stirs learners' thoughts through the review of scholarship in a wide range of areas, encouraging them to critically consider the theoretical underpinnings of administrative practice.
