Adrian Jarvis – Management in Education, 2024
Both 'collegiality' and 'distributed leadership' have, as terms, occasioned a good deal of debate.

Tian, Meng; Nutbrown, Graham – Educational Management Administration & Leadership, 2023
Existing distributed leadership (DL) theories tend to focus on distributing financial, material and human resources in order to enhance school performance. However, their impact appears controversial. Critical scholars assert that using DL to promote trust and democracy can be a self-fulfilling prophecy orchestrated by few formal leaders. When…

This conceptual paper aims at…

Grumbach, Giesela; Sosa, Leticia Villarreal; Lindsey, Brenda; Johnson, Annette H.; Delgado, Adrian – School Social Work Journal, 2021
Professional organizations aim to strengthen and protect the professions they serve.

Exploring issues of power and inclusion is essential not only for the survival and stability of the organization, but…
