Abstract

This chapter focuses on the transformative journey of a K-12 Pakistani urban private school in moving from autocratic-charismatic leadership practices to distributed-strategic leadership practices through the use of a total quality management change leadership approach integrated over two years. This study found that distributed educational leadership practices are developed at the school level through contextually relevant change leadership approaches that focus on sustained and continuous school improvement. The chapter provides insights into possibilities for further developing school organisational culture through emphasis given to collaborative and strategic decision-making practices amongst senior-level, middle-level, and teacher-level leaders in urban private schools in Pakistan.
