"I engaged the 23 leaders in the first cohort in a six-hour adventure involving the Transformation and Catalyst cards I purchased from The Center for Creative Leadership in November.(www.ccl.org/transformations). During class as well as after the class in the form of email messages, I received very positive feedback from a number of the participants about the use of the cards. Keep in mind that we have integrated a vertical leadership perspective and reflection into each course in the program. So, this was the sixth time that the 23 leaders in this cohort worked in this arena, in some way, and from some perspective. But, it was the first time they were introduced to the cards. (Based upon the feedback, it is apparent that my challenge now is to create several new reflective adventures to reinforce and expand their understanding as they continue their respective growth journey's.)"
This document provides an overview of leadership principles and theories from a lecture. It begins by defining leadership as a process of influencing others to achieve common goals. It then discusses the history of leadership concepts dating back to Confucius and outlines six main schools of leadership theory that developed over the last 70 years: trait, behavioral, contingency, visionary, emotional intelligence, and competency. Each theory is described in 1-2 sentences. The document concludes with a timeline showing the evolution of leadership thought over time.
The following ten statements show how Mercuri Urval defines, conceptualises and
understands leadership. We do not pretend to know all the answers to questions
about leadership. But we do have clear convictions based on our extensive experience
and research…
This presentation discusses leadership as a practice that can be developed through lifelong learning and reflection. It defines a practice as a repeated activity aimed at improving a skill. Leadership is considered a practice because it requires commitment to excellence, learning from experience, and building knowledge over time. The presentation explores views of leadership as a practice from thinkers like Aristotle, MacIntyre, Drucker and Schön. It emphasizes standards of excellence, communities of practice, and reflective learning from experience.
This document discusses leadership styles and their effectiveness. It defines leadership as influencing others to achieve group goals. The most effective style is the team leader (Theory Z) which balances getting results with caring for employee needs. Other styles like autocratic (Theory X) focus only on productivity while laissez-faire (Theory L) is uninvolved. The team leader builds a cooperative team and involves subordinates, resulting in high productivity, satisfaction and commitment. Both inherent traits and environment shape leadership development.
The document is a reflection paper on the article "Do You Have the Will to Lead?" by LaBarre. It discusses two key points from philosopher Peter Koestenbaum's interview. First, that reflection can generate inner toughness in leaders rather than take away from decisiveness. Second, that when problems arise leaders should change their habits of thought rather than demand more of the same. The author reflects on applying these lessons as an education leader, focusing on modeling change rather than demanding it.

The document discusses the differences between leadership and management. Leadership is defined as motivating a group of people to achieve a common goal, while management is responsible for setting objectives, organizing resources, and motivating staff to meet organizational aims. The document lists leadership positions like directors and management roles like managers. It also contrasts key traits of leaders and managers, noting that leaders design change, inspire people, and challenge the status quo, while managers focus on organizing change, consolidating efforts, and reflecting the status quo.
Proposal For Action Research - D Leadershipgstreet
This document outlines an action research proposal on distributed leadership at Scootney Springs Elementary School. The purpose is to engage staff in developing distributed leadership, examine how it is enacted, and its effects. Issues include leadership being concentrated among a few and lack of clarity about distributed leadership. The school has 650 students who are mostly Hispanic, low-income, and English language learners. The proposal describes introducing distributed leadership to staff, surveying participants, analyzing data, sharing results, and facilitating dialogue to improve leadership functions performed by multiple individuals. Anticipated outcomes include increased staff leadership and engagement, improved school climate, and student benefits.

Issues include leadership being concentrated among a few and lack of clarity about distributed leadership. The school has 650 students who are mostly Hispanic, low-income, and English language learners. The proposal describes introducing distributed leadership to staff, surveying participants, analyzing data, facilitating dialogue, and documenting findings over multiple cycles from August 2009 to June 2010. Anticipated outcomes include more teachers taking leadership roles, improved school climate, and benefits for students.
The document discusses different perspectives on whether leaders are born or made. It outlines the "Great Man Theory" which believes leaders are born with inherent qualities. However, the document argues this is not always true, as not all political or celebrity children become successful like their parents. It then claims leaders can be made by developing skills over time through learning and experience. While some traits may be innate, leadership skills can be improved with coaching. Ultimately, the document concludes that leaders are neither purely born nor made, but rather that certain traits can be nurtured based on a person's internal qualities and situational factors.
The document discusses various concepts related to leadership and management. It begins with a quote about empowering oneself and others. It then provides definitions of leadership as influencing others to achieve goals and as an interaction between the leader, followers, and situation. The differences between a leader and manager are outlined, with leaders seen as more innovative and inspiring. Several leadership theories are then summarized, including the Great Man theory, trait theory, behavioral theories, and contingency theories. Different leadership styles like coercive, authoritative, affiliative, democratic, pacesetting and coaching are defined. The document concludes with discussions of motivation theories from McGregor, Maslow, McClelland, and Herzberg.
This document provides an overview of leadership theories including:
- Early theories focused on identifying traits of leaders and behavioral styles. Research found situational factors strongly influence effectiveness.
- Contingency theories propose effective leadership depends on matching style to situational factors like task structure and follower readiness. Fiedler's model and situational leadership theory describe different leadership styles.
- The leader participation model provides contingencies to determine the appropriate level of follower participation in decision making.

Trust in Leadership : An Evidence Based Approach slideshare.pptxebbnflow
What are the underlying reasons that leaders are able to lead their people during times of uncertainty and change?
This session explores the evidence behind how leaders were able to garner a sense of trust from their people.
Theories & Approaches to Leadership: An OverviewKimberly White
A brief overview of leadership, including pre-1970 leadership theories and a handful of contemporary approaches to leadership. Theorists include Bass & Burns, Greenleaf, Astin & Astin, Heifetz, Maxwell, Sinek, and Collins.
This document provides an overview of leadership and change management topics. It includes:
- Educational goals related to leadership theories, skills, and managing change.
- Summaries of various leadership theories such as Great Man Theory, Behavioral Theories, Situational Theories, and Transformational Leadership.
- Descriptions of different leadership styles including Visionary, Coaching, and Coercive styles.
- Discussions of the roles of managers versus leaders, power and influence, and adapting leadership approaches for different change phases.
This document summarizes different theories of leadership, including foundational theories like trait, behavioral, power/influence, and contingency leadership. It also discusses newer paradigms like functionalist, social constructivist, critical, and postmodern leadership. Transformational leadership aims to foster change through motivation, while transactional leadership focuses on management and maintaining the status quo. Effective leadership requires understanding how power works within an organization and using both transformational and transactional approaches appropriately for the situation and culture. The social constructivist paradigm of leadership views it as socially developed and dependent on context.
This document explains about how to maximize leadership, the importance of team in a leadership, skills to be developed to be a good leader, and so on....
Leadership theories can be used to contrast different approaches, apply concepts to experience, and analyze emphasizing factors. A great leader creates trust to motivate followers to take risks, share information, work effectively in teams, and increase productivity. While different leadership theories exist for different contexts, they commonly focus on influencing others through relationships to make decisions and set a direction dependent on follower needs.
Perry Riggs presented on the power of organizational culture in transformation. He discussed two premises: that culture eats strategy, and that culture can be changed in a managed way. Riggs explored definitions of culture and different approaches to cultural change, including focusing on individuals, teams, and the entire enterprise. He highlighted that cultural transformation is a "wicked problem" that requires engaging the organization through dialogue to find solutions.
Cultural intelligence refers to the ability to understand and adapt to unfamiliar cultural contexts. It has three components - cognitive understanding of cultural differences, physical adaptation to new cultural norms, and motivational drive to overcome cultural barriers. Effective leadership styles vary depending on national culture - for example, individual rewards may demotivate in collectivist cultures while job security is valued more in high uncertainty avoidance cultures. Developing cultural intelligence involves understanding one's strengths and weaknesses and receiving training to improve weak areas.
This document provides an overview of several theories and styles of leadership. It discusses early theories including trait theory, which proposed that leaders possess certain innate traits. Behavioral theories focused on defining leadership behaviors that can be learned. Participative leadership theories emphasized involving others in decision-making. Lewin's research identified democratic, autocratic, and laissez-faire styles. Situational leadership proposes that the best style depends on situational factors and the maturity or ability of followers. Overall, the document traces the historical development of leadership theories and compares different approaches.

This document discusses various concepts related to leadership. It begins by listing 12 names that form a leadership group. It then discusses several key distinctions related to leadership, including:
- Leader emergence vs leadership effectiveness
- Different types of leadership outcomes (positive and negative)
- The difference between a leader, manager, and supervisor
- Leader development vs leadership development
It also outlines several traditional theories of leadership, such as great man theories, the trait approach, sources of power, and behavioral approaches including the Ohio State and University of Michigan studies. Overall, the document provides an overview of fundamental leadership concepts and theories.
Problems and possibilities of pracademiaScott Eacott
Presentation at the International Congress of School Effectiveness and School Improvement 2022 (online) as part of a symposium on pracademia and the pracademic. Draws on a forthcoming Special Issue of the Journal of Professional Capital and Community.
Presentation to the SACS Research Conference 2021 on leading change in schools through relational theory. Introduces the framing of clarity - coherence - narrative.
Relationalism in educational leadership researchScott Eacott
This document provides an overview of relational approaches in educational leadership research. It discusses four main forms of relational approaches: adjectival, co-determinist, conflationary, and relational. For each approach, the underlying ontological, epistemological, normative, and theoretical assumptions are explained. The implications for research using each approach are also outlined. The document argues that a relational approach offers both a theory and methodology for illuminating organizing activity through relations in specific spatio-temporal conditions.
Empowering educators through clarity, coherence and narrativeScott Eacott
This is a presentation given to the 'Pathway to the principalship' program co-ordinated by The Brown Collective for Sydney Catholic Schools. It builds on a recent chapter in the Flip the System Australia book.
Dr Scott Eacott gave a presentation on working with the sociologist Pierre Bourdieu's concepts in educational leadership research. He introduced how Bourdieu's ideas of field, capital, and habitus have been applied in the literature. However, Eacott argues for "thinking with Bourdieu" and appropriating his methodological approach rather than directly applying concepts. He discusses enduring struggles in using Bourdieu, such as addressing science and temporality, and advocates an ongoing program of thinking anew to generate ideas rather than just critique.
This document summarizes a presentation by Dr. Scott Eacott on what makes an effective school. Eacott claims that schools prioritize what they are good at, education is political, and effectiveness is contested. He advocates for a relational approach that questions common discourses and embraces organizing relationally to overcome tensions between individualism and collectivism. Eacott discusses different perspectives on school effectiveness, improvement, and teacher effectiveness. He argues that effectiveness begins with clarity of purpose, coherence with that purpose, and constructing your own narrative.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).

2. SOME BACKGROUND
• MLMEd no discussion of
“leadership” as anything but
THE desirable.
• Hambrick & Finkelstein (1996)
asking questions of the self?
• Lieberson & O’Connor (1972)
• A long history of asking
questions of the “realness” of
leadership.
• Does leadership hold up to
theoretical critique?

4. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
What I offer today comes from:
Eacott, S. (forthcoming). Beyond leadership: a relational
approach to organization theory in education. Dordrecht, the
Netherlands: Springer.
5. (PEDAGOGICAL) OVERVIEW
Objective
• To analyze “leadership” for its theoretical and methodological
rigor and robustness.
Quality Criteria
• You can identify some of the underlying generative features of
argument for “leadership”.
Tasks
• Presentation (45 mins)
• Dialogue and debate (45 mins)
• But the above is flexible

6. LEADERSHIP PRELIMINARIES
Something about what is a social group (e.g., an organization)?
1. A group (i.e., n=≥2) requires some form of organizing.
2. If there is leadership there is group change.
3. “Leadership” involves “administration” and/or “management”
but offers something “more”.
4. “Leadership”, “management”, and “administration” are three
distinct, even if related, analytical categories.
7. FROM RATIONAL TO RELATIONAL
Built on a Bourdieusian craft of scholarship, I propose the
following relational approach:
• The centrality of “organizing” in the social world generates an
ontological complicity in researchers (and others) that makes it
difficult to epistemologically break from ordinary language;
• Rigorous (social) scientific inquiry calls into question the
foundations of popular labels such as “leadership”;
• The contemporary condition is constantly shaped by, and
shaping of, the image of organizing;
• Foregrounding relations enables the overcoming of
contemporary, and arguably enduring, analytical dualisms
(structure/agency, individualism/holism, universal/particular)
• In doing so, there is a productive – rather than merely critical –
space to theorize organizing activity.
8. ONTOLOGICAL COMPLICITY
Some matters:
• Embedded and embodied auctors
• Greenfield on the “realness” of organizations
• Complicity with orthodoxy
• The social world is contested
• Positionality and non-positionality
• Enduring productively
9. PROBLEMATIZING LANGUAGE
Some matters:
• “Leadership” is the contemporary flavour
Previous labels have been demonized
• But leadership is … ?
• The rise of leadership in spatio-temporal conditions
• Epistemic imperialism
• Beyond critique
• Theorize it has the Pretty Woman effect
Anything you want it to be
10. SPATIO-TEMPORAL CONDITIONS
Some matters:
• Context as causal
(1) Context (social structures) → practice
[determinism]
(2) Practice (agency) → context (social structures)
[agentic]
(3) Practice (agency) ↔ context (social structures)
[conflationism]
(4) Context (social structures) → (+/-) practice (agency) →
transformed or reproduced
[moderation]
• Organizing as context
12. PRODUCTIVE THEORIZING
Some matters:
• Theoretical insecurity
• Pre-existing normative orientation
• Easy to dismiss / ignore based on alternate positions
• But this involves “othering” and separate entities
• To think relationally is to problematize AND contribute
• To look at problems AND possibilities
• Knowledge claims in relation to one another
• There are explicit practical applications of the relational
approach
13. RECASTING ED LEADERSHIP
Thinking of educational leadership with new terms
• The shift from “leadership of organizations / people” to
organizing activity
• The generation of knowledge / conditions
• Not agents or actors but auctors (s/he who generates)
• Not contexts / environments but spatio-temporal conditions
Not just novel language, but a re-casting through the
centrality of relations
