Journal Title: International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 12
Abstract
The article aims at investigating elements concerning school change and how students as integral parts of the school community contribute to the success of the aforementioned issue. Additionally, the article examines how the adaptation of strategic management improves school environment, school performance and fulfils both the academic as well as the organisational mission of the school units. More particularly, the application of school change includes the implementation of specific steps which in turn will guarantee cultivating students’ agency, empowerment and greater commitment to participate in creating better social relationships in the school environment resulting in the improvement of the whole the school culture. Strategic management on the other hand, by implementing the critical elements for effective management along with participation of school members and leadership of administrators could result in enhancing quality of planning, motivating teachers and developing their competence. Leadership can initiate and maintain the strategic management process. All in all, it is of crucial importance that our students will enhance their understanding of organizational behavioural norms and their sense of their role, and value, in the organizational life of the school which could constitute a place where young learners will learn all the necessary skills that will enable them to become successful leaders and to deal with authority.
