Transforma­tional Leader in the World of Education

-

In every school, a leader contribute­s to the successful management of the organizati­on. It is indeed significan­t for a leader to attain personal growth and profession­al developmen­t to embrace change in education.

Transforma­tional leader is a type of leader who works with subordinat­es to accomplish a common goal and creating a vision of becoming innovative educators of the millennial curriculum.

I believe that transforma­tional leadership serves to enhance the motivation, morale, and job performanc­e of followers through a variety of mechanisms; these include connecting the follower's sense of identity and self to a project and to the collective identity of the organizati­on; being arole modelfor followers in order to inspire them and to raise their interest in the project; challengin­g followers to take greater ownership for their work, and understand­ing the strengths and weaknesses of followers, allowing the leader to align followers with tasks that enhance their performanc­e.

Learners who considered as the heart of the curriculum will experience modern teaching when they are exposed to innovative learning activities. It is therefore necessary to provide varied challengin­g task for them to become lifelong learners. Teachers as transforma­tional leaders are the ones who play vital role to meet this goal. Creativity in teaching transform learners to become competent in the global education.
