CONCEPT
OF MANAGEMENT OVER LADS WITH TWO SIMILAR TERMS, LEADERSHIP AND ADMINISTRATION
School leaders experience tensions between
competing elements of leadership, management and administration. Irrespective
of how these terms are defined, school leaders experience difficulty in
deciding the balance between higher order tasks designed to improve staff,
student and school performance (Leadership) routine maintenance of present
operations (management) and lower order duties (administration) by Leadership
means influencing others actions in achieving desirable ends.
Leadership helps
the leader to motivate others to work with him in getting things done without
colonizing or dominating others. Managing is maintaining efficiently and
effectively current organizational arrangements I prize both managing and Leading
and attach no special valve to either since different settings and times call
for varied responses.
