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.

Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
The purpose of this correlational study was to examine the relationship between teachers' perceptions of their principal's leadership behavior and the level of shared decision making practiced in their schools. This study sought to answer the following overarching research question: "To what degree is there a relationship between the leadership behaviors of secondary school principals and the level of shared decision making in selected Southeast Georgia schools as perceived by teachers?" Data were collected from secondary school teachers throughout Southeast Georgia using the Leadership Practices Inventory-Observer and the Shared Education Decisions Survey-Revised. Results indicated the highest leader practices identified to be encourage the heart and inspire a shared vision. The highest shared decision making dimension was pupil personnel services, followed closely by curriculum and instruction. Though very little relationship was found between leader behaviors and shared decision making as perceived by teachers, results from this study may be useful to principals who are considering shared decision making opportunities for their faculties. Key words: Teacher perceptions, principal leadership, behavior and shared decision making, symbolic interaction, Georgia secondary schools
