Implications for Educational Administration
For successful educational leadership, educational leaders need to (a) articulate a vision
and create the structure for that vision to come to fruition; (b) be symbols of the institutional
values of the school that they lead; (c) be cognizant of the symbolic nature of their position when
taking action; (d) be role models for students, staff and faculty; (e) teach lessons with what they
136support and how they act; and finally (f) be conscious of the possible implications of all of their
decisions and actions.
