MAUREIRA, Oscar; MOFORTE, Carla e GONZALEZ, Gustavo. More distributed leadership and less directive leadership: New perspectives to characterize processes of influence in educational centers. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2014, vol.36, n.146, pp.134-153. ISSN 0185-2698.
From within the educational organizations, the tendency in leadership knowledge emphasizes that the exclusive, individual, charismatic and hierarchical vision is coming to an end. Based on the logic of improvement, innovation and complexity of scholarly organization, nowadays there is an emerging emphasis on the academic discussion and educational policies of the Anglo-Saxon countries where there is a new concept regarding the educational leadership, increasingly transversal and with an emphasis on practices of collective leadership. This paper describes the origin, context and events that have characterized the leadership of the educational institutions. Thereafter, it argues that, based on the current challenges of schoolarly organization, there is a weakness in the behavior of examining directive leadership only on the basis of the individual and pyramidal phenomenon. Moreover, it discusses and portrays the principal characteristics of the so called distributed leadership. To conclude, both the conceptual and political considerations regarding the focus on distributive leadership in the educational setting are resumed.
