The Influence of the Principal's Leadership Style on Teachers' Use of Technology in the Instruction of Secondary Mathematics and EnglishSchulter, Daniel Joseph January 2006 (has links)
The study sought to advance knowledge between leadership style and teacher's use of technology. This quantitative research study investigated the relationship between principal leadership style determined by the MLQ (Bass & Avolio, 1989) and the perceived Role Messages (Katz & Kahn, 1978) teachers' receive about the use of technology in English and Mathematics. The Role Messages teachers receive from the principal influence the teachers' use of technology. A qualitative instrument, The Role Message Perception Interview for Administrator (RMPI-A) was used to confirm principal's leadership style in the transformation, transactional, and passive/avoidant areas.A transformational leader builds trust, inspires teachers, acts with integrity, encourages innovative thinking, and coaches people to move the teachers to a higher level of commitment. A transactional leader is more concerned with monitoring for mistakes and rewarding achievement. A passive/avoidant leader chooses to use his time dealing with crises and avoids involvement (Bass & Avolio, 1994). Sixty-three teachers of Mathematics and English at each of the five urban high schools responded to the Perceived Role Message Survey for Teachers (RMPS-T), a 56-question survey about the use of technology. The principal's leadership style was compared to their teachers' perception among the five high schools. The responses by teachers on the RMPS-T for the transformational sub-section showed significant differences among teacher responses on school culture (p = 0.0159), there were no other significant differences among transformational sub-sections. On the transactional sub-section showed significant differences among teacher responses on evaluator monitors (p = 0.122), and differences among the my principal rewards me sub-section, but not significant (p = 0.009). On the passive/avoidant the sub-section there were no significant differences.The study sought to show connection between teachers' gender, age, subject taught, the number of college credits earned, and the number of hours of professional development when compared to the number of uses of technology. The findings showed a difference among teacher responses based on gender, but not significant. There were no other significant differences. The results will assist high school principals in understanding how leadership style can impact the use of technology.

Transformation in the workplace : what makes for sustainable solutions.Pather, Anasuyah. January 2009 (has links)
This research is an experiential learning history of a change management
process that occurred within the local government Development
Management Department of the Ethekwini Municipality in the South African
province of KwaZulu Natal. The department is the gatekeeper of
development for Ethekwini and offers the plans approval service in the
municipal area. The department underwent an internal change management
process in 2000, which aimed to streamline the plans approval process and
minimize the approval timeframe. The Municipality’s decision to change the
existing system was motivated by the lack of foreign direct investment into
the city due to the bureaucratic plans approval process.
This research used the qualitative framework and case study approach to
understand the context of the requirement for the change, the implemented
changes and the aftermath of the changes. A sample group of 38% (from the
department) was interviewed, their responses consolidated, grouped and
graphically represented, enabling the unpacking of the change management
experience. The author then analyses the data against systems theory and
change management theory to enable a greater appreciation of the
complexity of the process and the high impacts of specific choices in the
change management process.
The findings of the research indicate a high degree of unresolved stress
relating to the imposition of the process of change management on
employees. The author draws the conclusion from the evidence presented
that the inclusion of the recipients of change, in the process of change will
mitigate against these stresses.
This research documents the experience of the change management
process by the recipients of change. In so doing it offers a greater level of
insight of the way in which change is experienced, thereby promoting better
choices by practitioners in the field of change management. / Thesis (M.Com.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Westville, 2009.
