Book Description
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the high school principals’ use of power and teacher’s self-perception of professionalism. Seven bases of power were explored during this study: (a) reward power, (b) coercive power, (c) legitimate power, (d) referent power, (e) expert power, (f) information power, and (g) connection power. Four dimensions of professionalism were identified as subscales and were: (a) personal characteristics, (b) commitment to change and continuous improvement, (c) subject and pedagogical knowledge, and (d) activities beyond the classroom. The quantitative study combined two data collection tools, the Power Perception Profile – Perception of Other and the Teacher Professionalism Inventory-Self, to provide opportunity for teachers to describe their current perceptions of their principals’ use of power and their self-perception of professionalism. While no relationships were identified as being statistically significant, findings did suggest that teachers’ self-perception of professionalism was both directly and inversely related to the principals’ use of power. Principals who understand how their use of power grows or hinders their teacher’s sense of professionalism equips them with the necessary tools to foster professional development that is both positive and beneficial to the teachers.

A Quantitative Study on the Power Dynamics of the School Principal-teacher Relationship
Author: Tiffany Brown
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Electronic dissertations
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
While many of us have learned to recognize the signs/behaviors in personal relationships, abuse in professional workplace relationships has gone largely unexamined. The relationship between the principal, as the boss, and the teacher, as the employee, is an under-researched component of the school workplace community that is important for identifying the behaviors that exist within the "dark side of organizational life" in schools. How do we better prepare teachers for this dark side of the micro-politics of school life? This quantitative study is best described as a survey research study that attempts to examine the relationships between teachers and principals in K-12 public schools. The focus is to examine school teachers' perceptions of the major sources of the experience of mistreatment by a principal both past and present, how often mistreatment occurs, the intensity of the mistreatment, the effects of mistreatment, the identification of teachers' coping skills of such mistreatment, and the determination if perceptions of mistreatment vary by demographic variables in a randomly selected sample. The principal whose interactions with staff undermine these all-important relationships by creating dissociation between teachers' self-confidence and their professional self-image is like the captain drilling a hole in his or her boat. No matter how hard you bail, it is always sinking.
