Skoolhoofleierskapstyl deur die lens van die kultuurhistoriese aktiwiteitsteorie (KHAT)

Abstract

Followers' perceptions are the best evaluation of leadership styles. How followers observe a leadership style may differ from how the leader sees it. In order to understand the entire reality, one should accept and respect the different perspectives and its contribution towards the understanding of a phenomenon. The purpose of any educational institution is to provide successful teaching and learning to all learners. However, one of the main problems contributing towards poor results could be the leadership style of principals. Individuals have a particular perception of a leader they are about to meet, and they expect that leader to act according to those perceptions. Implicit leadership might guide a person to understand and interpret the credibility of such leadership behaviour.
