Journal Title: Qlantic Journal of Social Sciences and Humanities - QJSSH - Year 2024, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
The study aims to understand the philosophy of leadership through the lens of school principals and to understand the strategies used by principals to foster a culture of collaboration and teamwork in their organization. The qualitative phenomenological study was utilized. The data was collected by interviewing the ten school leaders through a semi-structured interview questionnaire. The sample encompassed leaders from diverse socio-economic backgrounds to ensure comprehensive representation. The data was analyzed through thematic analysis. The major leadership approaches that emerged are the hybrid approach and the humanistic approach, and the emergent thematic strategies for collaboration and teamwork are shared vision and an empathetic ear. Based on the findings, recommendations were proposed for educational institutions to develop an environment of collaboration and teamwork for students. Additionally, strategies were suggested for educators to integrate these qualities into their teaching practices, fostering a supportive learning environment conducive to a teamwork culture.
