Leadership Style Analysis and Application
You have been introduced to the main leadership style models currently in the literature. As a new principal, it will be important to know which model you ascribe to as part of the transition from teacher to school leader. In addition to understanding your dominant leadership style, you must also begin to consider how this transition will impact other aspects of your personal and professional life.
In this assignment, write a 4- to 6- page essay on the leadership transition you will make from teacher or other position to principal and consider the breadth of the principal’s responsibilities.
In this analysis paper, review principal leadership standards, define and analyze different leadership models, identify which leadership style may be dominant for you, how you came to identify that as your dominant style, and the probable social and emotional changes that may challenge you in this new role.
