I really like how you said that stakeholders are one of the major key components in schools.  By expecting administrators to get their job done and communicate effectively, stakeholders are holding administrators accountable for their job and their actions.  I also like how you said that stakeholders would rather be lead by example than bossed around and told what to do.  This is true because it makes the stakeholders feel more valuable and it makes it known to them that their job is important and valued, as well.  By having a principal who can manage by leading, employees know what is expected of them, but they are also shown their worth.




To be an effective administrator you must address the managerial and leadership aspects of your job. On the managerial side; administrators have subordinates (assistants, teachers, school personnel) that they rely on to make sure the necessary tasks are carried out fully and in a timely manner. As "managers" is it an administrators job to take an authoritarian position to ensure that their school/district is running smoothly without having to micromanage what is being done on a day to day basis. On the leadership side of being an administrator you must lead by example and collaborate with everyone involved (faculty, students, families, community) to achieve certain goals. Being an administrator means taking aspects from the managerial side and the leadership side depending on the situation. It is imperative that effective administrators use various aspects from both sides to be successful.

Stakeholders are one of the major key components in schools; without these people the school would not be able to run like a "well-oiled machine". Stakeholders expect administrators to be authoritative and "get the job done". Being a manager means being able to communicate positively and effectively with the stakeholders. Stakeholders also expect administrators to be leaders. School superintendents, principals, assistant principals etc. are the key to a good school and good community. They are expected to lead by example. Stakeholders often do not take well to being told what to do, but would rather be led to achieve the desired goal.
