3. In the changing and challenging operational
environment in which schools now operate, it is not
surprising that educational leaders are often faced with
ethical dilemmas (moral dilemmas per se) in the course
of their daily work as they endeavour to make complex
decisions in the best interests of both staff and students.
Capable leaders are centrally concerned with ethics and
morality and with deciding what is right and worthwhile.
Their leadership is based on personal integrity and
credibility within trusting relationships. They are authentic
in that they are clear about their core values and do their
best to live by them. They are capable of elevating the
spirits of those around them, and contribute to their
environment through the quality of their relationships.

Whether a man is burdened by
power or enjoys power; whether
he is trapped by responsibility or
made free by it; whether he is
moved by other people and outer
forces or moves them -- this is of
the essence of leadership.
