This correspondence article aims to discuss the ideal attributes and behaviors deemed essential for a Leader Manager within educational settings, based on the perspectives and insights of teachers. The study explores the significance of leader characteristics, behaviors, and leadership styles in achieving positive outcomes in education. The findings suggest that all these characteristics are fundamental and contribute to the overall effectiveness of educational leadership. However, it is challenging to determine which characteristic is more significant, as they are interconnected and have relative influences. Specifically, the study emphasized the significance of an ethical character in the Leader Manager's demeanor, encompassing traits such as impartiality, reliability, fairness, constructiveness, patience, courage, and a commitment to democratic principles. These attributes were identified as foundational for fostering a positive educational environment, influencing teacher morale, student engagement, and overall school culture.
In light of these findings, the study offers recommendations advocating for school administrators to embody these identified characteristics. It is suggested that school administrators prioritize the cultivation of an ethical character that demonstrates fairness, impartiality, and a commitment to democratic decision-making. Additionally, the study encourages administrators to embrace facilitative, empowering, and visionary approaches, thereby fostering an environment conducive to innovation, motivation, and support for teachers and students alike.
The implications of these findings highlight the pivotal role of the Leader Manager in shaping the educational landscape and underscore the importance of aligning administrative practices with the identified attributes to promote a thriving and harmonious school community.
