Read-a page- a day

Now I am reading a book entitled 'Rethinking Leadership' by Thomas J. Sergiovanni. The first chapter of the book is "Leadership as a Moral Craft". The first page contains the definiton of leadership as it is a tough question for anybody to answer as well as an IPK student. The writer qoutes Susan Moore Johnson on leadership as " Leaderships looks different-and is different-depending on whether it is experienced in a legislature, on a battelfield, at a rally, on a factory floor, or in a school district (1996, 14)".

Sekolah memerlukan kepemimpinan yang berbeza kerana sekolah dimiliki oleh semua pihak termasuk pelajar, ibubapa dan masyarakat. Sekolah perlu memenuhi kehendak masyarakat. Sekolah juga memerlukan cara memimpin yang berbeza kerana staf mereka kebanyakannya adalah profesional dan organisasi secara hirarki tidak boleh menjadi asas dalam memimpin dan mengurus sekolah kerana seorang pemimpin sekolah bukanlah selalunya lebih berkemahiran dari segi proseional berbanding rakan guru yang ada di bawah pimpinan mereka.
