Abstract

Managers have different management styles. No manager is the same as another, or as any of the classical management styles that are defined in the literature. It is very hard to relate to a permanent style of management. During a career a manager can experience several situations. The most active managers – principals - are the transformational leaders who encourages the staff to achieve beyond the personal interest to advance a common goal stemming from it. School managers face dilemmas since autonomous school managers have responsibility and authority to channel the money at their disposal as they see fit. According to the claim that there are countless definitions of the word 'leadership' the term can be divided into two main categories: Inborn attributes and acquired attributes.
