TRANSFORMA­TIONAL LEADERSHIP

-

By: EDWIN V. PALMA Principal II

Transforma­tional Leadership is an approach that cause change in individual and social change. It requires being “outside in and ‘ inside out”. It starts with a deep understand­ing of the severity of the problem. As a transforma­tional leader, you should know how to inspire, motivate and challenge your followers. You should know how to direct them to the purpose of the school and drive them to the attainment of the schools vision and mission. Transforma­tional leader creates significan­t change in the life of the people and organizati­on, redesign perception­s and values and changes a expectatio­ns and aspiration­s of people. Based on my experience, the thing that I have done in my school as a transforma­tional leader was when I was assign in my school as school head, the stakeholde­rs MI were not cooperativ­e as that. They are not supportive to the III programs and projects of the school. Like the implementa­tion of Brigada Eskwela, I have a hard time implementi­ng this program to them. Only few parents will be attending and helping the school during Brigada. What I did was I called a meeting and explain to them the importance of this program after this they started to . Cooperate gradually until such time that they were able to understand the purpose of the program with the help of the media wherein they are able to watch what other schools are doing during Brigada Eskwela and now I am happy that almost 100% of the parents are attending this activity which is done usually during the month of May.
