Strategic leadership in education involves three key capabilities: thinking ahead to set a vision for transforming the education system to future needs, delivering within to manage performance and build organizational capabilities, and leading across to engage stakeholders in the transformation process. Effective strategic leaders are focused on the future, use evidence to inform decisions, can implement plans to achieve goals, open new possibilities, collaborate well with others, and act ethically. Globalization and a focus on productivity and quality are also important considerations for modern educational leadership.
Instructional leadership encompasses actions that principals take to promote student learning growth. It includes defining the school's purpose, setting goals, providing resources for learning, supervising teachers, coordinating staff development, and creating collaborative relationships among teachers. Research shows that instructional leadership has significant positive effects on student achievement. Principals play a key role as instructional leaders by setting the school vision, acting as an instructional resource, and ensuring a supportive environment for teaching and learning.

School administration involves planning, organizing, directing, and controlling resources to achieve educational goals. Its major functions include planning, organizing, staffing, directing, coordinating, reporting, and budgeting. Principles of school administration emphasize that it should be democratic, cooperative, scientific, based on educational philosophy, creative, evaluative, consistent, preventative, child-centered, and flexible. An effective administrator applies these principles and uses a democratic rather than autocratic leadership style.
Educational management involves planning, organizing, directing, controlling, and coordinating educational institutions using human and material resources. It aims to effectively accomplish the goals of teaching, research, and community outreach. Management is needed to create an optimal environment for learning, efficiently utilize scarce resources, and professionally operate educational excellence.

classmate 1
Health Sector
Chin and Trimble (2015) explained that leaders in the health sector are generally focused on affordable healthcare, quality insurance, and reduced health care spending. More specifically the mission of a health organization is cost, quality, and access. Issues within healthcare in the 21st century has increased patient volume in hospitals or doctor’s offices. This can result in increased profits for healthcare organizations because the more frequent patients are visiting and screened for a plethora of testing, the health organization capitalizes at the patient’s expense. Furthermore, health organizational issues are ever-present with providers that target a healthier population. This means that those who do not have preexisting health conditions have lower premiums or deductibles. The Affordable Health Care Act released in 2010 was developed to help create a balance for everyone. This policy was developed to help protect all individuals and avoid discrimination against those with disabilities or other health-related issues and to provide accessible healthcare to everyone. While there are still issues with the U.S. healthcare system, there are some health providers and organizations that exhibit a caring leadership style to protect individuals. I do believe that this style of caring brings a humanistic approach to leading in the healthcare industry and over time, people can trust their healthcare system. I also believe that transparency is key for all populations.
Corporate Sector
Historically the corporate sector has focused on profits and losses. The leaders in this environment are performance and task-oriented. This type of leadership style has also received undertones of autocratic behaviors. In some cases like factories, this is well received because internal constituents appreciate the directives and clarity of knowing exactly what to do. In other cases, it has been less humanistic and consumer needs are forgotten about. In the 21st century, customer service, product availability, and quality are increasingly more important. Performance and task completion are still at the top of the leaders' list, however, corporate leaders are taking on more of a diversity and inclusion perspective towards their leadership to better serve people from all backgrounds. Diversity enhances workplace teams for creativity. This mindset also produces social responsibility among companies. Corporate structures are learning to do business domestically and globally from a culturally competent approach (Chin & Trimble, 2015).
Higher Education Sector
Chin and Trimble (2015) found that higher education environments dedicate their mission to creating knowledge and training students to becoming contributing citizens in society. Educational institutions place a community-centered mission on diversity. Chin and Trimble (2015) stated: “Speaking from a feminist perspective, the primary defining trait of successful universities will be.

Leadership Organizational innovativeness when it comes to non-profit organizations. How to keep volunteers inspired?
Discuss some of the leadership problems or opportunities that each of these three studies addresses.
Leadership issues that arise in schools are many across the board; from student bullying teachers, to academic failure and at risk youth alternative school retention. Principals leadership affect subordinate’s teachers and students alike.
As school leaders, principals can influence student achievement in several ways, such as hiring and firing of teachers, monitoring instruction and maintaining student discipline, among many others. When leadership influence is not positive but seen in a negative way what are the effects on subordinates?
Serving others comes from a form of servitude and passion for a cause. Robert Greenleaf states, “The servant-leader is servant first. It begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. The best test is: do those served grow as persons; do they, while being served, become healthier, wiser, freer, more autonomous, more likely themselves to become servants?” (Spears,2005).
Non-profit organizations volunteers can be tough to maintain. Leadership in non-profit organizations must continually inspire their workers with a passionate and charismatic approach. Some can be dedicated to the cause but not the organization, needing tangible evidence of the changes they are making in the lives of others. Volunteer do not depend on the organization for steady income. Innovative ideas to keep the passionate for the cause and offer other incentives are important. Non -Profit leaders face various hurdles. Financial hurdles, Operational effectiveness, competition of resources and grants to help fund the organization. Are servant leader the best leadership model for non-profit organizations? (Parris & Peachey, 2013).

It also outlines four factors of leadership: the leader, followers, communication, and situations. The document argues that personal development is important for leadership as the attributes a leader should "be, know, and do" require continuous self-improvement. Personal development helps leaders understand themselves and their followers to adapt their leadership style for different situations.

It suggests more research is needed on PR leadership and how the concept may differ across cultures. Questions are raised about leadership education and development, co-leadership models, and whether innate traits provide advantages over process-based leadership.
This document provides an overview of leadership concepts discussed in Chapter 12. It discusses leadership as an interactive process rather than traits, situational leadership which focuses on flexible behaviors, and successful leadership being dependent on follower maturity and willingness. Transactional leaders focus on rewards and punishment, while transformational leaders appeal to higher needs and ideals. Relationships are central to leadership success.

I agree with Chase that academic achievement should be the top priority for students. However, extracurricular activities can also be beneficial if done in moderation. A balanced approach that allows for both academic excellence and limited extracurricular involvement is ideal for student development and future success. Some key points:
- Academic achievement must come before extracurriculars to ensure students meet basic educational standards and career requirements. However,
- Extracurricular activities in moderation can teach valuable skills like leadership, collaboration, and work ethic to supplement academics. Banning them completely may hinder student growth.
- Not all extracurriculars are unproductive (e.g. STEM clubs). Generalizing them negatively is an oversimpl
On Culture Leadership Performance In Health Care Wpmbillmacaux
This document discusses organizational culture change in healthcare. It argues that culture significantly impacts performance, with 50-60% of mergers and projects failing due to cultural issues. Healthcare especially requires culture change to reduce disruptive behaviors and enable reform. Leadership is key to culture change through setting a vision, aligning people, and motivating action. However, uptake of improvements is often slow. Senior leaders must identify and develop more leaders to set direction, promote relationships, and empower change by breaking old habits and decentralizing control. Building leadership capacity through collaborative development is needed to successfully navigate reforms and drive sustained cultural and performance improvement.
The document discusses several key aspects of organizational behavior related to managing people:
1) People are more complex than machines and require unique approaches that consider social and motivational factors.
2) Managing human resources is an ongoing process that must account for people's inherent sociability and moral dimensions.
3) Unlike other resources, human resources can be transformed through skills development rather than just consumed.

4. The sociocultural phenomenon of the division of people
into categories of male and female, each having
associated clothing, roles, stereotypes, etc.
Some examples of gender characteristics :
• In the most countries, women earn significantly less money
than men.
• In most of the world, women do more housework than men.
• Caring for children is often considered best done by women
than men.
• household repairs are often considered best done by men
instead of women.

8. SOURCE: The Global Gender Gap Report 2014
According to the report, Pakistan is ranked 141 in terms of
economic participation and opportunity for women,
132 in terms of education attainment,
119 for health and survival and
85 for political empowerment
women are rapidly closing the gender gap with men in areas like
health and education, inequality at work is not expected to be
erased until 2095,
10. • One is that females' life aspirations are diminished by their
early childhood socialization in the nuclear family. Generally
the nuclear family transmits definitions of appropriate
gender behavior to children.
For girls, this includes passivity, avoidance competition and take risk, and the
boys receive more parental encouragement to pursue their goals.
• Secondly, Several studies have shown that successful
managers to have the characteristics typically associated
with men.
successful managers qualities are a combination of masculine (e.g.,
forcefulness, self-confidence, task orientation, initiative) and feminine (e.g.,
concern for people, feelings, and relationships) traits.
11. Three main types of managerial behavior examined in
male/female differences

14. A problems, situations, or opportunities requiring an
individual to choose among actions that may be evaluated
as right or wrong, ethical or unethical.
Ethical issues arise because of:
Conflict among personal/organizational values
Conflicts with societal values
e.g. Lying to supervisors
Favoritism
Taking credit for others work
Terminating employees without any reason
Misuse of power
Application of personal expenses to official budgets
15. A situation in which an individual feels compelled to
make a choice between two or more actions that he/she
can reasonably and morally justify, or when evidence or
an arguments are inconclusive, is called an ethical
dilemma (McConnell,2002).
You have a student who is from a single parent family. The student
must work to attend college. However, the job is interfering with the
student’s performance and several assignments have not been turned
in. You have determined that a “D” is all the student can make when a
counselor informs you that the student needs a “C” to qualify for an
academic scholarship.’
What do you do?
16. Example
Sara is very happy on the whole with the project she has just completed
for the Candi Cookie Company. Most of her hypotheses were supported
by the survey data. There were two hypotheses that did not work out, but
she thought she would just leave them out of the report.
Is it ethical to omit information which does not tally with your
beliefs?
Can valuable information be lost through the omission?
17. Lying
Lying, a form of deception, requires the expression of an
actual statement known to be untrue (Buller & Burgoon,
1996).
Conflicts of Interest
A conflict between the private interests and the official
responsibilities of a person in a position of trust.
Bribery
Bribery is the practice of offering something in order to
gain an illegal advantage.
18. Discrimination
Discrimination means unequal treatment.
Discriminates against an individual with respect to hiring,
employment terms, promotion etc.
Sexual Harassment
Sexual Harassment is a form of abuse that affects
one’s performance at work adversely, due to another
person’s inappropriate behavior. It disturbs
individuals (mentally and physically) during the
course of his work performance.”
Fraud
Any purposeful communication that deceives,
manipulates, or conceals facts in order to create a false
impression is fraud.
20. Leadership of Educational Transformation
Leadership of Educational Transformation has three
common capabilities. These are
“Think Ahead”
Set the vision and strategy for the education system
“Deliver Within”
Manage the education system and build its capabilities
among internal stakeholders.
“Lead Across”
Reach out to and engage stakeholders within and outside of
the education system.
21. Transformation leaders must “think ahead” by setting a
vision and strategy for education transformation.
This capability involves asking difficult questions about
what a society needs, expects from education and how
education systems must anticipate economic and
technological changes?
Education systems need to be able to adapt accordingly so
that they can prepare students to succeed in the 21st-century.
Preparing students for the 21st century isn't just about technology or skills. Its
all about creativity, cultural awareness, problem solving, innovation,
communication, productivity, collaboration and exploration, with the ultimate
aim of making the classroom as dynamic as the world around us.
Think Ahead
22. The second role of transformation leaders is to “deliver
within”, overseeing the performance of the organization
they are managing during the transformation and build the
capabilities of the education system.
This capability also requires transformation leaders to
ensure the sustainability of their initiatives, which often
operate on timelines that outlast their tenure.
Finland and South Korea are successful examples of deliver within.
Finland relies on a strategy of decentralized authority and empowers
teachers with more autonomy and flexibility. Finland’s national core
curriculum serves only as a framework and is not prescriptive. This gives
principals and teachers wide latitude and independence to decide what they
will teach and how.
Deliver Within
23. “Leading across” is the third and most important
transformation capability. To implement this,
transformation leaders must directly engage with
stakeholders during the planning and implementation
phases of transformations.
This capability can involve ensuring the support of the
everyone for the proposed change and will work to help
them succeed.
Leading across also involves regular dialogue with students and teachers.
Alberta, a province of Canada, has an online platform called “Speak Out”
for students aged 14 to 19. The province also has a formal student
advisory panel that meets the education minister.
Leading Across
25. Strategic Leadership
When leaders engaged in the management processes of
analyzing, planning, implementing, monitoring and
evaluating they were basically considered to be strategic
leadership.
For schools, this means achieving the best possible student
outcomes now and into the foreseeable future.
Nelson Mandela is a living example of strategic leaders. The key to
Mandela’s leadership was broad in scope (to encourage racial
harmony), change oriented (forgiveness without forgetting), future
focused (power sharing and a strong focus on the future, not the past).
26. Strategic Leaders are Futures Oriented and have a
Futures Strategy
Strategic leadership is more than having a vision about
an ideal future. It is about acknowledging the complex
and unpredictable nature of the future and developing
strategies to ‘prepare for the unexpected’ rather than just
to ‘plan for the known’.
At educational level, strategic leaders need to determine
what future citizens of their society need to learn and to
experience in order for their nation to be prosperous and
harmonious in the era in which their students will
graduate.
27. Strategic Leaders are Evidence Based and Research
oriented
Evidence-based practice is about obtaining strategic data
from the social, technological, educational, economic and
political environment; analyzing, interpreting and
integrating that data into useful information; and the
exploration of desirable options.
Evidence-based practice means examining evidence of
learning in order to ensure that every learner is achieving
improved outcomes.
28. Strategic Leaders Get Things Done
Strategic leaders don’t talk about what they might do,
they actually do it.
Strategic leaders draw on their knowledge and position in
the school to focus action on what is important. They get
things done both personally and in collaboration with
others.
The school leader must be someone who ‘gets things
done’.
29. Strategic Leaders Open New Horizons
The strategic work of leaders is to collect and expose
possibilities beyond the mundane and to open horizons
