▼ The development of leadership skills and competencies in the federal government has lacked the minimal and consistent support necessary to produce consistent positive outcomes across agencies in leader skills, competencies, and behaviors, as well as workplace performance. Although observers of government have identified this problem as a one of great importance for many years, in part due to the imminent retirement of a substantial number of employees currently in leadership positions, little has been done to improve the situation. Despite the importance of this issue and its relevance to government performance, few researchers of public management have pursued study of the issue. This study employs prior research and theory to develop a theoretical model of the effect of organizational support for leadership development on organization-wide leader skills, competencies, and behaviors, as well as organization performance. Using this model as a foundation, this study proposes nine hypotheses of the effects of organization support for leadership development on various leader skills, competencies, and behaviors, as well as aspects of organization performance. These hypotheses are tested utilizing the responses to a large-n survey of federal personnel aggregated to the organizational sub-element level. The results of the data analysis employing OLS regression estimation provide strong evidence that organizational support for leadership development has positive effects on measures of the goal-setting organizational environment, the organization-wide interpersonal communication environment, the organization-wide implementation of performance evaluation, the organization-wide adherence by leaders to meritocratic principles, the organization-wide utilization of personnel talent, and the work quality organization-wide. Taking these results into consideration and employing a modified return on investment framework, this study make a case that this data can be used to make a rudimentary estimate of the return produced in each outcome measure as a result of increasing organizational support for leadership development. These estimates, combined with the statistically significant and positive relationships discovered in this study, serve as evidence that federal government organizations can produce beneficial effects in leader behavior and action, as well as organization performance, by increasing their level of support for leadership development.

▼ The purposes of this study were: (1) to identify the leadership styles of presidents of technical colleges in Georgia as indicated by the presidents, (2) to identify the leadership styles of presidents at these institutions as indicated by the vice presidents, (3) to determine whether the presidents and vice presidents perceive this leadership style differently, and (4) to discover whether demographic variables are associated with leadership styles. Data were collected using the Leader Effectiveness and Adaptability Description (LEAD) survey instruments. A second questionnaire gathered personal and institution data. Descriptive statistics were utilized to summarize the results from the LEAD instruments and questionnaires. The study utilized correlation analysis to determine relationships between the perceptions of the presidents’ leadership style. An analysis of means was used to examine the differences between the presidents’ leadership style self perception and demographic variables. Selling (high levels of task and relationship behaviors) was the primary leadership style most frequently identified by the presidents. Participating (low level of task and high level of relationship behaviors) or a pairing of telling (high level of task and low level of relationship behaviors) and participating were identified as the presidents’ most frequent secondary leadership styles. The majority of the presidents rated their leadership style adaptability in the moderate range. The vice presidents most frequently perceived their presidents’ primary and secondary leadership style as selling. The majority of the vice presidents rated their presidents’ leadership style adaptability in the low range. Correlation analysis identified a strong positive relationship between the way presidents perceive their selling leadership style and the way vice presidents of instructions perceive the presidents’ selling leadership style. Additional moderate relationships were identified involving the perceptions of the presidents and all categories of vice presidents, except for the vice presidents of student services. The research also found an association between the technical college presidents’ perception of their leadership style and the following variables: gender, education, number of years at the current institution, previous position, number of years as president, size of the technical college, and location of the technical college.

▼ The three empirical essays in this dissertation analyze the public management issues of 1) organizational leadership and work motivation, 2) organizational commitment, and 3) managerial reform systems. In the first essay, the analysis of over 6,900 federal employees’ responses to the Merit Principles Survey 2000 examines the influences of leadership and motivational variables on the outcome variables. CFA confirms a factor structure for transformation-oriented leadership (TOL), public service-oriented motivation (PSOM), transaction-oriented leadership (TSOL), and extrinsically oriented motivation (EOM). Multivariate regression and 2SLS models show that TOL and PSOM, as well as interaction effects of TOL-TSOL and TOL-PSOM, have strong relations to the outcome variables. SEM analysis examines direct and indirect effects of the main variables. Overall, the results indicate that TOL and PSOM have more positive relations to the outcome variables than do TSOL and EOM. The combination of high TOL and high PSOM has the strongest positive, and hence desirable, relation with outcome variables. The second essay examines the constructs and the effects of three sub-dimensions of federal employees’ organizational commitment - affective, normative, and continuance. Using the MSPB 2000 survey instrument and employing EFA, CFA, multivariate regression, and SEM methods, this study empirically tests and measures 1) the dimensionality of the three commitment constructs, 2) the extent to which antecedent variables would affect the three different commitment variables, and 3) the influence of these three commitment values on several outcome variables. This study confirms that there are three distinctive constructs of commitment to stay in federal agencies and that other mediators - e.g., empowerment and goal clarity - have direct and indirect effects on the commitment variables. Affective commitment is most significantly and positively associated with these antecedents, and higher affective commitment also has the most significant effect on organizational consequences. Finally, employing the principal-agent theory and using the empirical models of CFA, hierarchical regression, SEM, and HLM, the third essay probes four personnel reform effects in the State of Georgia: 1) a monetary incentive system, 2) a knowledge incentive system, 3) a discretionary controlling system, and 4) a performance monitoring system. The findings indicate that all four personnel reform systems are directly and indirectly associated with organizational consequences. Among these effects, discretionary controlling and performance monitoring system effects are most salient and effective to enhance motivation, job satisfaction, and organizational effectiveness as well as to decrease state employees’ turnover intentions.

▼ This study is focused on assessing emotional intelligence as a critical factor for people in organizational leadership and in the workforce to achieve the desired performance levels within an organisation. The study setting is in the Zambian Parastatal sector and more particularly at the Zambia Electricity Supply Corporation (ZESCO) and the Zambia Telecommunications Company Limited (ZAMTEL). These are two large companies whose operations cover the whole nation. Since 1991, when a new government came to power and liberalized the economy, it has been trying ever since to find a solution to poor performance of parastatal enterprises. It has managed to privatize a good number of them, however, there are a few that it considers strategic to the country’s economy, which are still operating as state owned companies including ZESCO and ZAMTEL which the government has been looking at critically. The major reason cited by the government and scholars for the short-comings in these organizations has been that of poor leadership in their management. It is against this background, that this study attempts to provide a solution to the problem by identifying emotional intelligence as a critical factor needed by the leadership of the Zambian parastatal companies to improve organizational performance. Apparently, emotional intelligence is a new concept in the country and there is little that has been done in this area of knowledge worth noting. This study intends to provide more information on the subject and how it can be implemented to influence effective organizational leaderships. A literature review was undertaken on emotional intelligence together with instruments devised to measure it, which have been developed by a number of psychologists. A theoretical framework on the assessing of emotional intelligence has been provided from which the questionnaire was developed to bring out the content, predictive and construct validity. This questionnaire was subjected to internal evaluation by members of the Copperbelt University’s Department of Business Administration and it was used in a pilot survey involving the managers at a local company in Kitwe to test for consistency. The questionnaires were administered to all those managers at the two case study companies through random sampling to ensure that every manager had equal chance of being picked as a respondent. It took six months to administer the questionnaires. Thereafter, data was analysed on how managers assessed themselves and their organizational leadership with regard to emotional intelligence and how it contributed to the performance of their organization. The nature and management of the parastatal sector in Zambia has also been examined. After a discussion of the findings that emerged from the available literature, a conclusion was drawn that emotional intelligence is a critical factor among the other factors needed to increase organizational performance. Without this, good social relationships and industrial harmony in the work place would be difficult to achieve and… Advisors/Committee Members: Pillay, Kriben (advisor).

▼ Existing leadership theories tend to explain that leaders induce others to follow as a function of one or more of the following: i) A specific set of traits possessed by the leader (e.g., charisma); ii) Different types of behaviours the leader exhibits depending on the situation (e.g., a focus on tasks or a focus on relationships); iii) Specifics relating to the structure and dynamics of the leader-follower relationship (e.g., economic, social, or psychological exchange, or a ‘customized’ focus on the ‘follower’). Leadership is thus seen largely as getting others to do what the leader wants based on what the leader does for them (some kind of exchange mechanism), or on his/her character or style. Whether intended or not, one can argue that these theories are characterized by a somewhat manipulative and self-serving view of leaders and leadership, even when there is a focus as well on ‘elevating’ those who follow. We argue that existing theories are based on assumptions and logic that pose significant challenges, and that there is a gap in understanding the essence of the leadership phenomenon, particularly how it emerges in the first place in the perception of observers. We advance an alternate view, drawing in particular on psychological field theory, whereby leadership emerges as the result of the perception of meaningful acts of challenge or resistance undertaken by individuals that compel others to follow, without invoking exchange mechanisms, character traits or style. More specifically, we find that leadership is the phenomenon of engaging a collective by: - meaningfully challenging the status quo or system over a sustained period of time, combined with the associated accumulation of legitimate power sufficient to align the collective to overcome opposing stabilizing forces, and creation of a new status quo/system and equilibrium; or, - meaningfully resisting challenges to the status quo or system over a sustained period of time, combined with the associated accumulation of legitimate power sufficient to align the collective to bolster stabilizing forces that would otherwise be overcome by the challenging forces, thereby consolidating the status quo/system and equilibrium. We claim that this is an essence that people perceive and respond to in seeking out and reacting to leaders. Five studies were conducted to test and validate the theory. Studies 1, 2, and 3 provided experimental evidence confirming our first hypothesis that an individual who meaningfully challenges the status quo more strongly than another over time will be perceived to be a stronger leader. Studies 4 and 5 provided qualitative evidence supporting our second hypothesis that individuals who are asked to recount in some detail specific acts of leadership they have experienced will share the unique common thread of perceiving another individual (or individuals) meaningfully challenging the status quo or system with respect to an issue of concern over a sustained period, or meaningfully resisting challenges to the status quo or…

▼ While leadership research is widespread, much of it represents leadership psychology assumptions that leaders are singular individuals, different from the body that they are leading. This dissertation provides a close reading of a different approach to leadership, one arising from the cultural community around the Diana's Grove retreat center. This philosophy holds cultural norms of the Cornerstones of Community (choice, thinking well of the group, thinking well of one's self, stewardship of self, and sacred wound) as overt rules that are the foundation of sustainable community interactions. It discusses how service to the idea of community is the primary motivating factor behind this form of leadership, and how that is manifested in the hierarchy of commitment and the work of leading others to their own discovery. It claims that leadership is a shared, communal responsibility, and that one cannot avoid having a leadership impact, even through non-action; because of this, awareness of impact and situational awareness are key leadership skills. The emphasis on service and community lead these practitioners to frequently refer to this as "priestessing" rather than leadership, though both terms are used and understood to be roughly comparable. These findings are not culturally-limited; that is, practitioners describe using these leadership practices in a wide variety of cultural situations, both at Diana's Grove and in other cultural contexts. This implies that this is a leadership attitude that is applied constructively regardless of whether or not one is in a recognized leadership role. While that is true, practitioners also describe that it is most useful and most powerful when it is a shared cultural context, with leadership responsibilities shared among the full group. This data was collected through a combination of three methods: interviews with graduates of and teachers in the Diana's Grove priestess path, examination of cultural artifacts and texts, and participant observation in the community. All data was collected in 2010-2011. Advisors/Committee Members: Cramer, Janet, Balas, Glenda, Collier, Mary Jane, Hill, Susan E..

▼ The purpose of this study was to determine whether there are differences in the perceptions of the importance of identified servant leadership characteristics for high school principals held by teachers in schools located in two diverse communities. Servant leadership is a practical philosophy supporting people who serve first in their life and work (Frick, 2004, p. 8). Like other leadership philosophies, the practice of servant leadership may be influenced by variables that are particular to the environment in which it is employed (Howard, 2005; Kelly & Williamson, 2006; Lambert, 2004). This research is a case study involving two purposively chosen communities. Participants in the study were teachers from high schools in two diverse communities, one located in urban coastal Virginia and the other located in rural southwestern Virginia. A similar number of participants were obtained from the two communities to assure appropriate representation for data analysis. A 48-item questionnaire using a Likert-type scale was used as the research instrument. The questionnaire was constructed using the servant leadership characteristics and behaviors identified by Abel (2000). The questionnaire was offered to all teachers in both communities. A confirmatory factor analysis was used to group the 48 items into 12 factors. The data secured were compiled and analyzed to determine differences in teachersâ perceptions of the importance of identified characteristics of servant leadership in principals in the two communities. While all the identified characteristics were found to be important, the analysis indicated statistically significant (p< .01) differences did exist for the factor represented the servant leadership characteristics of building community, communicating vision, and empowering people. For this factor, the population from the urban community had a higher mean score (3.78 compared to 3.49) and smaller standard deviation (.29 compared to .49) than the population from the rural community. The implications of the study are that current school leaders might be able to better manage and lead their school communities if they adapted their practice of servant leadership to the particular characteristics of their communities. Similarly, principal preparation programs might incorporate the findings into their curricula. Advisors/Committee Members: Tripp, Norman Wayne (committeechair), Creighton, Theodore B.

D.Ed.

Communities in any given society are made up of individuals. As individuals are different and unique, so are communities unique in character. Different leaders play different roles in communities and have obtained leadership responsibilities in a variety of ways. Leaders act as leaders because they are appointed by a structure or system like the government. Other leaders act as leaders, because the people just ‘see’ them as their leaders or they are “self-appointed” leaders. The question that arises is what is the role of leaders in a given community? To what extent are they responsible of leading towards and creating a better future? What are the expectations of the community from the leaders whom they have appointed or who act as self-appointed leaders? How does the community experience the ‘leadership’ of their leader? How do the leaders experience their leadership responsibilities? The aim of this study was the description, implementation and evaluation of a psycho-educational programme to facilitate the development of community leaders within an informal settlement (Zandspruit). From a methodological point of view a qualitative research design was utilized to make the purpose of the study a reality. Phenomenological research was conducted whereby leaders from the community of Zandspruit were interviewed by asking them an open-ended question, namely: how is it for you to be a leader xii in this community? The results and data were analysed by open coding and the themes and categories were identified. A literature control was done and a programme was designed based on the research findings. The research indicated that leaders lead with feelings of “incapable of leading” their community. The leaders are preoccupied with their lack of leadership or facilitation skills related to the complexity, expectations, perceptions and challenges of this community. In general, the research has shown that leaders don’t feel they know ‘how’ to lead their community. It also surfaced in this research that this specific community is complex. Although every community are facing challenges to overcome, it seems that in this community the leadership challenges and “stakes” are even higher. Subsequently a leadership development programme was developed. The programme was developed out of themes and categories from the research findings. The intent was to ‘invite’ leaders to embark on a lifelong journey of growth and development. Secondly the programme has the intention to equip leaders in order to become ‘leader of leaders’. The programme was implemented, evaluated and adjusted according to the recommendations and findings. xiii The research therefore puts a leadership development programme in place that will facilitate the development of community leaders within an informal settlement. The intention and hope is that the programme will enhance the personal development of leaders, as well as skills needed in this specific context, that will eventually contribute towards their mental health and wholeness.

Educational Leadership

Ed.D.

The study was specifically designed to explore the leadership density in selected secondary schools by examining how leadership at the middle tier is conceived and implemented. This focus was predicated on the increasing demand to acknowledge the layers of leadership that exists in schools. Additionally, there is a growing need to direct attention to this tier by building their leadership capacities as the expectations regarding accountability in the educational system increases. In pursuing this investigation, a qualitative research design was used and therefore the main data collection tool was in depth semi-structured interviews. In addition, a ranking activity was done by the respondents as well as observations and review of documents were also included in the data gathering procedures. These tools while providing rich data, also served an integral function of triangulation. This provision was made possible from respondents drawn from a pool of middle managers in selected secondary schools using purposive sampling. The data revealed that both categories of middle managers saw their roles as very important to the effectiveness of the organization. Their significance was supported by the principals of the schools in which the middle managers operate. While middle managers expressed their understanding of some fundamental leadership practices through the ranking activity, the evidence of alignment in their conversations about their own practices reflected gaps between their beliefs and the description of their practices. The data further revealed that variation was evident in the conceptualization and implementation of leadership practices within and across the schools. Clear identification of a sustained plan for leadership development for the team members led by the middle managers was not easily detected. This was not surprising as it was clear that middle managers were not exposed to a preparation program to transition from classroom teacher to middle manager. Keywords: leadership practices, middle managers ’practice, and team leadership.

▼ Leadership development programs have become popular at universities across the United States. These programs, whether curricular or cocurricular, short-term or long-term, have helped undergraduate student leaders to be effective and to develop skills that they can use not only in their student organizations but also in their lives after graduation. While some studies have focused on leadership development programs, very few have compared the students? leadership styles and effectiveness as perceived by peers, based on participation in a leadership development program. This study was designed to determine whether there were differences in the leadership styles of student leaders who participated in a leadership development program and those who did not. The study also investigated whether followers perceived their student leaders to be more effective based on their leaders? participation in a leadership development program. Based on both quantitative and qualitative measures, the results of this study provide positive implications for student participation in leadership development programs. Results from the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire showed no significant difference between students who participated in a leadership development program and those who did not; however, a slight difference showed students who had participated in a program to be more transformational and more transactional. The qualitative method of focus groups showed that student leaders who participated in a leadership development program were perceived to be more effective than those who did not, based on four emergent themes: leading by example, passion for the organization, organizational skills and task- versus relationship-oriented leadership. While focus group participants discussed similarities of the themes of leading by example and passion for the organization, differences were found in the themes organizational skills and task- versus relationship-oriented leadership. These differences were in favor of student leaders who participated in a leadership development program that made them more effective. Recommendations in support of leadership development programs were discussed, including required training for student leaders, incorporating cross-cultural communications training, and developing a peer evaluation system, among others.

▼ The purpose of the study was to identify the instructional leadership practices and challenges in government primary schools “woreda five”. Concept of instructional leadership in the study emphasized on collegial classroom observations and specifically focuses on support, guidance, and encouragement of reflective teaching. Leadership for instruction emerges from both the principal and the teachers. In this thesis, lead teachers, the assigned cluster supervisor and principals are part and parcel of the instructional leadership of schools, since they all are needed to involve in providing support for novice collaboratively at various level. Current trends appear to indicate that there is a quality challenge still left unsolved in primary education of the Woreda, Often the instructional leadership (supervision) implement identical supervisory approach for all teachers’ despites the fact that some approaches are suited to a particular situation. The study strived to answer the extent of instructional leadership involved in supervision, in providing supervisory support at different level of experience, and the challenges. Total population of the study was 180. A descriptive survey research with both probability and non-probability sampling methods were employed. 90 respondents for the questionnaire and 31 respondents for the semi-structured interview questions were selected. The sample was drawn from all groups of staff members the beginners, proper and lead teachers. Standard questionnaire and open ended questions, and interviews with varied group of respondents were employed for data collection. Frequency, percentage and mean were used for data analysis and interpretation. The analysis made on the bases of six factors, that are observation and evaluation, encouragement, development of instructional programs, resource allocation, development of learning climate and differentiated teachers supervision (instructional leadership). As a result of the findings of the study, insufficient supervisory involvement was revealed and practiced occasionally (sometimes) by the instructional leadership. The supervision support provided for teachers at different experience level /rank/ were happened rarely (infrequently), and was seen the greatest challenge for all the schools. Participation of senior teachers in the school instructional leadership, observation of teachers, and staff development programs were major recommendations based on the findings.

▼ Educational leadership is at the forefront of school improvement and reform. Too often, only formal leadership is studied with regard to improving teaching and learning. This study is unique because the author has used an organizational theory lens in order to uncover the complexities of the classroom. Furthermore, the author sought to understand the characteristics of classroom leadership and how the teachers in this study became the transformational teacher leaders they were. The author used the following definition based on the work of Yukl (1999) to define transformational leadership: Transformational leaders are leaders who provide intellectual stimulation, develop follower skills, build collective efficacy, and allow individual consideration. This study is different from instructional leadership in several ways. First, instructional leadership focuses mainly around ???strong, directive leadership with regard to curriculum and instruction from the perspective of the school principal??? (Hallinger, 2003, p. 329). In addition, instructional leadership is a type of formal leadership whereby the principal of a site is looked at as the center of expertise on curriculum and instruction. This study differs from instructional leadership studies because it looked at the informal leadership practices and characteristics of classroom teachers within their classroom micro-organization and studied teachers beyond curriculum and instruction. Furthermore, the focus of instructional leadership is to increase student academic outcomes (Hallinger, 2003). While academic improvement is a component of classroom leadership, it is not the only focus. Finally, this study differs from other educational leadership studies because it is one of very few studies that has analyzed the classroom using an organizational theory lens. This study utilized the qualitative method of inquiry, specifically the phenomenological approach. The purpose of this study was to uncover teachers??? perceptions about classroom leadership. The sample consisted of six teachers who exhibited the transformational leadership characteristics as described above. The teachers were all from the same suburban northern California school district but from different school sites. There were three research sites: one K-6 grade school, one K-7 grade school and one 5-8 grade middle school. The data for this study were gathered through face-to-face interviews, classroom observations and the researcher???s journal. Through the process of open and closed coding, four major themes emerged. These transformational classroom leaders are reflective, collaborative and flexible lifelong learners. Important to note is that this study suggests these characteristics could be taught and learned by all teachers at any school site, and a classroom leadership framework and process for learning the given characteristics is provided. Advisors/Committee Members: Pritchard, Robert Henry, 1947-.

▼ Studies concerning spirituality and higher education, particularly for the college student, are beginning to appear in journals, conference papers, and presentations. However, there is little research conducted with professionals in higher education on the construct of spirituality. Spirituality has so many different definitions in the literature, it is difficult to define, and perhaps even more complex to study academically. Using a research-based conceptual model for religious faith, developed within the study of family sciences, this study examines the lived experience of how and why Catholic women administrators connect their faith and leadership in a setting of public institutions of higher education. Using a grounded theory qualitative approach to research the how, why and processes of the faith and leadership connection for women administrators, interviews were conducted with ten Catholic women administrators. Findings include four emergent themes which begin to explain and deepen the understanding of how religious faith and leadership are connected at work. These themes, with sub-themes, include: Faith at the Core of Identity, Using Faith and Leadership Connection for Performance Management (Management of Self and Management of Supervisees), Specific Actions of Faith and Leadership (Use of Faith in Decision-Making: Prayer; Faith as Action: Service Orientation, Valuing Others, Relationship Building, Doing the Right Thing), and Challenges in Practicing Faith (Public Institution Factors; Implicit/Explicit Actions/Thoughts). These findings begin the research agenda to study faith and leadership, particularly in settings of public institutions of higher education. One research recommendation from the study was continued qualitative study approaches interviewing a wider sample of women leaders, including those of other faith denominations and geographically diverse regions of the United States. Practical implications for Human Resource offices, as well as Catholic parishes and diocese are included. As the women themselves articulate the connection of faith and leadership as inseparable, with faith as the foundation of their leadership, more is understood about the way women of faith lead in public institutions of higher education. Universities and the Catholic parishes and diocese are positioned to provide time, space, and training initiatives for leadership development.

▼ Background Leadership is essential to the direction of teams, organisations and professions. Pharmacy leadership begins as pharmacists first engage with the profession. Aim The aim of this research was to investigate and identify areas that impact the leadership development of intern pharmacists. Methods The aim was addressed by employing qualitative and quantitative methods. The qualitative study set out to define pharmacy leadership, employing grounded theory to examine 29 in-depth interviews with pharmacy leaders. The qualitative findings informed the quantitative study which investigated the development relationship that exists between intern pharmacists and preceptor pharmacists. The quantitative study further investigated interns (n=430) development needs. The psychometric properties of the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) were examined using Confirmatory and Exploratory Factor Analysis (CFA & EFA). Findings Six themes emerged from the qualitative study that constitute the Pharmacy Leadership Theory. 1) Pharmacy leadership definition; 2) Pharmacist identity; 3) Community pharmacy leadership; 4) Pharmacy industry influences; 5) The transformation challenge; and 6) Pharmacy leadership development. Pharmacy leaders believed that unstructured leadership development is needed, whilst interns were seeking structured leadership development. This provides some evidence of an inter-generational disconnect. Interns who received a transformational leadership style from their preceptors, reported an increased willingness to work harder, and believed their preceptors exhibited effective leadership. CFA of all known leadership models using the MLQ indicated a poor fit. The factorial structure of the MLQ was explored employing EFA which indicated 4 leadership factors that was confirmed to fit the data using CFA. A CFA on the 3 outcomes of leadership identified a high correlation approaching unity causing doubt that the factors are separate. Conclusions New insights into understanding pharmacy leadership and the formative leadership development relationship have been identified. These findings will inform preceptor training and subsequently improve intern development. Further research is needed to understand pharmacy leadership across the pharmacy workforce.

▼ Ensuring that all students are learning at high levels is an important goal for school leaders. This multiple case study examined leadership practices, beliefs, and attitudes in two high schools to describe leadership for learning at these schools. Three bodies of literature were used for this study: principal leadership literature, leadership for learning literature, and transformative leadership literature. The principal leadership literature established the link between principal leadership behaviors and student learning. The leadership for learning literature provided a framework for the study to examine leadership practices, beliefs, and attitudes that could impact student learning. Transformative leadership literature served as a conceptual lens for the study and identified leadership practices that could ensure high levels of learning for all students. Case studies were done at two purposefully selected high schools in the Midwestern United States. Data were collected about leadership for learning practices, beliefs, and attitudes in four ways: a staff survey about leadership for learning, interviews of key administrators and teachers, observations of classrooms and teacher collaboration, and review of documents. Findings about leadership practices, beliefs, and attitudes was detailed for each school in the study. Five major themes emerged from the study about leadership for learning. First, the role of principal is essential in providing effective leadership for learning. Second, the process of change is a critical element in effective leadership for learning. Third, context is a critical factor in effective leadership for learning. Fourth, effective leadership for learning must focus on learning, including curriculum, instruction, and assessment practices in the school. Finally, transformative leadership is key in order to ensure that all students learn at high levels. A number of recommendations were made in three areas: recommendations for practice, recommendations for professional learning, and recommendations for future research. Recommendations included finding strategies that allow principals to focus on leadership for learning and providing principals, both pre-service and in-service, with professional learning in order to provide effective leadership for learning.
