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. -- *Amanda Luttrell* *Zahn's Corner Middle School* *Sixth Grade Language Arts* -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
