摘要:

内生性主体养成与外生性环境塑造通常被认为是校长领导力形成的主要途径,但尚未有实证研究探讨二者对校长领导力提升的相对重要性。面向中小学校长群体开展问卷调查,探究个性特质与组织环境对校长领导力的影响效应。研究发现:个性特质是校长领导力提升的主导力量,环境的影响不到三成(23.95%),换言之,校长领导力提升与否“七分靠打拼”;外向性、开放性、责任感特质和上级支持感对校长领导力呈现正向影响;办学自主权对校长领导力发展产生“过犹不及效应”,呈“拐点偏移的倒U型”特征;上级支持感对校长领导力的影响为“雪中送炭”式,相比于专家型校长,其对成长型校长的边际效应更高;培养责任感特质有助于校长领导力实现“提低扩中”,有效缩小校长领导力发展的群体差异;强化外向性和开放性特质对校长领导力的影响为“锦上添花”式,推动专家型校长形成“优势叠加效应”,有助于其向卓越校长转变。基于此,建议从优化校长遴选标准,设计分类支持性计划,确保“放权”与“管控”的动态平衡三方面为提升校长领导力助力。

Abstract:

Endogenous subject formation and exogenous environment shaping are usually regarded as the main pathways to the formation of principal leadership, but no empirical research has been conducted to explore the relative importance of the two on the enhancement of principal leadership. A questionnaire survey was conducted among a group of primary and secondary school principals to investigate the effects of personality traits and organizational environment on principal leadership. The study found that personality traits were the dominant force in principal leadership enhancement, while the influence of environment was less than thirty percent (23.95%). In other words, whether or not principal leadership is improved “depends on the struggle”, while extroversion, openness, sense of responsibility and sense of support from superiors have a positive impact on principal leadership. Also, autonomy of school running has a “too little too late effect” on the development of principal leadership, showing a “shifting inflection point effect”. The influence of superior support on the leadership of principals is in the form of “sending charcoal in snowy weather”, which has a higher marginal effect on growth-oriented principals than that of expert principals. In addition, the development of the trait of sense of responsibility enables principals to “raise the low and expand the middle”. The development of the trait of sense of responsibility helps principals to realize “raising the low and expanding the middle”, effectively narrowing the group differences in the leadership development of principals. Finally, trengthening the trait of extroversion and openness has an “icing on the cake” effect on the leadership of principals, promoting the expert principals to form a “superposition effect of advantages”, helping them to develop towards excellence.Based on this, it is recommended that we optimize the selection criteria for principals, design supportive programs, and ensure a dynamic balance between “decentralization” and “control” in order to promote the enhancement of principal leadership.

Key words: principal leadership, personality traits, school autonomy, sense of support from superiors
