 LEARNING PAPER

THE BOOK LEADERSHIP FOR LEARNING; HOW TO BRING OUT THE

BEST IN EVERY TEACHER IN THE BOOK SUGGEST THAT THE ROLE OF
A LEADER SHOULD BE TO “ACHIEVE RESULTS WHILE PRESERVING
THEIR MORAL RESPONSIBILITY TO THEIR STUDENTS AND STAFF
(GLICKMAN, 1987, SERGIOVANNI & STARRATT, 2007); EVALUATE THE
CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR DECISIONS, AND ADVOCATE FOR POLICY
AND PRACTICES THAT ARE ALIGNED WITH RESEARCH, AND
RECOGNIZE, RESPOND TO, AND REDRESS INEQUITIES IN EDUCATION
TO ENSURE ALL STUDENTS AND ALL TEACHERS CAN LEARN AND
GROW (GORSKI, 2013)” P. 3
 IN THIS ERA THE ACCOUNTABILITY OF BEING AN EDUCATOR AND
LEADER, FEEL CONSTANT PRESSURE TO BE EFFECTIVE—PRODUCE BETTER
TEST SCORES, RAISE GRADUATION RATES, ENSURE THAT STANDARDS ARE
BEING MET, AND SO ON.
GOOD LEADERS ACHIEVE RESULTS WHILE PRESERVING THEIR MORAL
RESPONSIBILITY TO THEIR STUDENTS AND STAFF (GLICKMAN, 1987;
SERGIOVANNI & STARRATT, 2007); EVALUATE THE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR
DECISIONS AND ADVOCATE FOR POLICY AND PRACTICES THAT ARE
ALIGNED WITH RESEARCH; AND RECOGNIZE, RESPOND TO, AND REDRESS
INEQUITIES IN EDUCATION TO ENSURE ALL STUDENTS AND ALL TEACHERS
CAN LEARN AND GROW (GORSKI, 2013). TO BE A GOOD LEADER, YOU MUST
KNOW WHO YOU ARE AS A LEADER AND WHAT YOU BELIEVE ABOUT THE
NATURE OF TEACHING AND LEARNING
I LEARNT ABOUT WHAT GLICKMAN AND BURNS ADVOCATE FOR:
● THE IMPERATIVE TO “DEPRIVATIZE” TEACHING PRACTICE BY
NURTURING COLLABORATION AND BUILDING COLLECTIVE
TEACHER EFFICACY IN EVERY SCHOOL.
● ONGOING AND DIFFERENTIATED PROFESSIONAL LEARNING TO
MEET THE NEEDS OF EVERY TEACHER.
● PEER COACHING: CREATING FORMAL AND INFORMAL
LEADERSHIP ROLES FOR HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL TEACHERS.
● THE LEADER AS COACH: STRATEGIES TO HELP DEVELOP
TEACHERS THROUGH OBSERVATIONS TO “FOSTER RISK-TAKING
AND GROWTH” (P. 36).
• CAREFULLY DIFFERENTIATING OBSERVATIONS TO FOSTER
GROWTH AND FORMAL VISITATIONS FOR TEACHER
EVALUATION SO THAT TEACHERS KNOW YOUR SPECIFIC
ROLE WHEN YOU WORK WITH THEM.
● VITAL COMMUNICATION SKILLS THAT ALL LEADERS NEED
TO BUILD TRUST AND HELP GROW AND NURTURE TEACHERS
SUCCESSFULLY.
● THE SIX DIMENSIONS OF ADULT AND TEACHER
DEVELOPMENT, INCLUDING (1) COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT,
(2) CONCEPTUAL DEVELOPMENT, (3) LEVELS OF
CONSCIOUSNESS, (4) MORAL DEVELOPMENT, (5) EGO
● DIFFERENTIATING ONE’S APPROACH TO
WORKING WITH TEACHERS BASED ON THEIR
CURRENT STATUS, STYLE, AND BELIEFS.
● MAKING THE MOST OF TEACHABLE MOMENTS,
AND
● BEING MINDFUL AND ADDRESSING THE SOCIAL
AND EMOTIONAL NEEDS OF YOUR COLLEAGUES.
 CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

THE EDUCATIONAL LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT OF

EDUCATIONAL PERSONA AND ITS APPLICATION VARIES
DIRECTLY TO THE LEADERS, FOLLOWERS AND THE
ORGANIZATIONAL SITUATIONS WHEREIN; EFFECTIVE
LEADERSHIP MUST HAVE LEADERSHIP BEHAVIORS,
LEADERSHIP TYPES, LEADERS VISION, VALUES
MANAGEMENT AND TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT
• EFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP HAS A LEADER WITH EXPERIENCE, HAS VALUE SYSTEM,
PERSONALITY AND TRUST TO HIS FOLLOWERS TO CARRY OUT THE TASK EVERY
DAY FOR THE GOOD OF THE MANY. THE FOLLOWERS MUST HAVE READINESS AT
ALL TIMES, KNOWLEDGE, TOOK PART ON THE DECISION- MAKING PROCESS, HAS
EXPERIENCE AND MOTIVATE HERSELF/HIMSELF TO EXCEL AND BECOME THE
BETTER INDIVIDUAL.
• THE SITUATIONS THAT NEEDS TO OVERCOME BY THE EFFECTIVE LEADERS IS
TIME PRESSURE, EFFECTIVENESS OF TEAM MATES AND THEIR LAPSES, BUILDING
STRONG FOUNDATION BETWEEN THE LEADERS AND FOLLOWERS RELATIONSHIP.
• EFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP HAS LEADERSHIP PERSONA AND PSYCHOSOCIAL
APPLICATION. EDUCATIONAL PERSONA INVOLVES PERSON IN DEPED PERSONNEL
AND EVEN APPLIED EDUCATIONAL RELATED OR NOT. ALL PEOPLE THAT CAN BE
THE LEADERS OF HIMSELF AND TO OTHERS IS A LEADER.
 PHILOSOPHY
• MY PHILOSOPHY ABOUT LEADERSHIP IS I BELIEVE I CAN LEAD, I CAN MAKE BEST DECISION AND
CAN CHANGE LIFE FOR A BETTER. I INTEND TO INSPIRE AND MOTIVATE PEOPLE FOR THEM TO
BECOME THE BETTER INDIVIDUAL IN THE SOCIETY. WHEN I ATTENDED THE BSP TRAINING FOR
TROOP LEADERS WE DEFINE LEADERSHIP AS THE ABILITY TO CHANGE PEOPLE FOR THEM TO
BECOME THE LEADERS OF THEMSELVES AND IN THE SOCIETY.
• I BELIEVE ALL LEADERS SHOULD EMBRACE A PHILOSOPHY THAT EMPHASIZES THE IMPORTANCE
OF RELATIONSHIPS, BETWEEN A LEADER AND A FOLLOWER TO BUILD TRUST AND SHARE
KNOWLEDGE FOR THE SUCCESS OF A COMMON GOAL, THIS WILL BE DONE BY FACILITATING
OPEN COMMUNICATION, ENCOURAGING YOUR PEERS AND MEMBERS BY FACILITATING OPEN
COMMUNICATION, ENCOURAGING THEM TO GROW AND DEVELOP THEMSELVES. TO BE A GOOD
LEADER, YOU MUST KNOW WHO YOU ARE AS A LEADER AND WHAT YOU BELIEVE ABOUT THE
NATURE OF TEACHING AND LEARNING. LEARNING TO BE A GOOD LEADER CAB GREATLY
PROMOTE SUCCESS OF YOUR TEAM, YOUR ORGANIZATION AND YOURSELF.
