TRANSACTIONAL CONCEPTIONS

TRANSFORMATIONAL CONCEPTIONS

CRITICALCONCEPTIONS

Framework of Triadic Supervision


Triadic Model of Supervision


Transactional ConceptionsThis idea of leadership

describes social action as leader-centered, dominated by rational models of decision-making and regulated by concerns of efficiency with regard to organizational maintenance. (Burns, 1978) Transactional leaders are

“benevolent dictators”


TRANSACTIONAL continued…

Transactional leaders attempt to define and frame the reality of others to maintain organizational harmony through heroic and charismatic efforts.


Transformational Conceptions

This represents leaders who shape, alter, and elevate the motives and goals of the institutional members. (Leithwood, 1992)

The goals of transformational leadership is to develop and maintain a collaborative school culture that fosters staff development.


Transformational continued..

Transformational Leadership fostered a community where members had the opportunity to negotiate change.

This idea of shared

leadership redistributed power and authority to the teachers who took on the role of leaders.


Critical Conceptions

The process of emancipation for all members of the organization. This idea-centered conceptualization of leadership does not establish power relationships

Critical leadership measures power by the capacity of all members involved in the interaction.


CRITICAL CONCEPTIONS continued…

Critical Leadership is a consensual task, a sharing of ideas and a sharing of responsibilities where a “leader” is a leader for the moment only, where the leadership exerted must be validated by the consent of followers, and where leadership lies in the struggles of a community to find meaning for itself.
