Abstract | A theoretical framework for leadership development is developed in this paper that links prior research findings to a cultural theory of principal influence on school performance. Four core dimensions of principal work--supervision, administration, management, and leadership--are analyzed in terms of their contributions to underlying cultural processes, showing how these work activities encourage a different approach to teaching and other school-related tasks. The tension between "settlement" and "frontier" cultures is explored as a way of clarifying the difference between routinized and problem-solving approaches to the principalship. Five research hypotheses for empirical verification of the theoretical framework are developed. (12 references) (LMI) |
