Leadership Qualities – how close to the mark are you?

Leadership Qualities – how close to the mark are you? | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
Beth Dichter's insight:

Mark Gleeson takes an infographic that he learned about on Scoop-it and brings the discussion of leadership and leadership building into the classroom, by taking each of the eight leadership qualities in the infographic and discussing them at three levels (quoted below from the post):

* Peer Leadership (School Leadership teams/Curriculum leadership teams or individuals)

* Teacher-leading-Class and

* Student Leadership

The eight leadership qualities are:

* Courage

* Humility

* Accountability

* Trustworthy

* Communication

* Conviction

* Collaboration

* Aligned

What made this post valuable to me was his discussion on each of the eight qualities within the framework of the three levels of leadership that are in our schools. You may find yourself asking questions about leadership in your school or district, and wondering how you might use this information within your classroom (or school if you are an adminstrator).

A ces qualités nécessaires, j'ajouterai la maturité, la générosité et la duplicité.

Excusez-moi, toutes les qualités contraires à la duplicité : droiture et franchise. Oups
