Discussion: Leaders and Stakeholders’ Perspectives
As you progress through your program, you will be exposed to many problems related to the field of education as well as many stakeholders and leaders who influence and who are influenced by those problems. No research study is done in isolation, and all studies need to consider and identify the key stakeholders and their roles. Stakeholders form a system of checks and balances in an organization. While each stakeholder has the right to an opinion, the influence of that opinion may relate to the position or role that the stakeholder holds within an organization. In addition, the characteristics and actions of a leader looking to address these problems need to be effective in order to affect positive social change.
