Derived from substantial literature, a model is proposed to investigate if vision attributes (brevity, clarity, future orientation, stability, challenge, abstractness, and desirability or ability to inspire) and content (relating to teacher and student satisfaction, and efficiency) are associated with higher public school performance, while taking into account Principal, Teacher, & Organizational Factors. Future research directions and managerial implications are also discussed.  \nKey Words: visionary leadership, vision, transformational, school performance  \nWith the ever-changing rate, form and scope of global changes, governments in the Asia Pacific region are faced with increasing difficulty in putting their educational policies into practice (Caldwell, 1998; Cheng & Townsend, 2000; Dimmock & Walker, 1998; Fullan, 1990; Hallinger, 1998; Hargreaves & Fullan, 1998; Murphy & Adam, 1998) . With that in mind, leadership scholars around the world have long searched for the kind of leadership needed for organizations to survive and remain competitive, and for many of them, leadership with vision as a core component is the answer (Avery, 2004; Bass, 1990; Conger, 1991; Conger & Kanungo, 1987; Hallinger & Heck, 2002; Kantabutra & Kantabutra, 2005; Tichy & Divanna, 1986) . Educational leaders can no longer be passive, but will need to look ahead to the future and scan the environment for external forces of change impacting upon schools, a CEO-like function called“visioning”(Bolman & Deal, 1992; Deal & Peterson, 1990; Leithwood, 1994) .  \nSooksan Kantabutra, Group Leader of the Leadership Research Group, College of Management, Mahidol University, Bangkok; PhD in management, Macquarie University, Sydney. Correspondence concerning this article should be emailed to [sooksan.k@cmmu.net](sooksan.k@cmmu.net).  \nIn particular, public schools are facing an increasingly competitive and dynamic educational environment, as well as numerous challenges, such as a general public demand for quality education. In academia, the importance of visionbased leadership, frequently referred to, or better known, as transformational leadership (e.g. Hallinger & Heck, 2002; Leithwood, Hallinger, & Colleagues, 2002), has also been widely discussed. Particularly relevant to education reform, vision has been asserted as the starting point of successful transformation process (e.g. Collins & Porras, 1994; Doz & Prahalad, 1987; Hunt, 1991; Kantabutra & Kantabutra, 2005; Kotter, 1990; Robbins & Duncan, 1988; Sashkin, 1988) .  \nOverall, vision-based leadership has been studied in a wide variety of samples and industries, predominantly at the individual level rather than at the business-unit and organizational levels. Generally positive findings between vision-based leadership and individual follower performance, attitudes, and perceptions have been reported (Baum, Locke,& Kirkpatrick, 1998), with no published studies reporting a negative relation between charismatic/visionary leadership and individual performance.  \nAt the business-unit level, two studies of corporate managers (Barling, Weber, & Kelloway, 1996; Howell & Avolio, 1993) reported significant relationships between  \nVision-Based Leadership in Schools  \ncharismatic leadership and performance. At the organization level, a major study found positive relationships between characteristics of CEO visions and venture growth, as measured by sales, profits, employment, a","cbCaimuToYW4v7iI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimuToYW4v7iI","pdf",155819,13,"English","# Improving Public School Performance through Vision-based Leadership\n## Vision-based leadership and transformation\n## Conceptual model and research focus\n## Literature review on vision and performance","[{\"question\":\"What relationship does the paper examine between vision-based leadership and public school performance in Thailand?\",\"answer\":\"It investigates how vision attributes and related content factors are associated with higher public school performance in Thailand, while accounting for principal, teacher, and organizational factors.\"},{\"question\":\"Which vision attributes does the proposed model include?\",\"answer\":\"The model includes brevity, clarity, future orientation, stability, challenge, abstractness, and desirability or ability to inspire.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the literature review frame prior findings on vision-based leadership and performance?\",\"answer\":\"It reports generally positive findings linking vision-based leadership with follower and performance outcomes at the individual level, and positive relationships at broader organizational levels, while noting limited Thailand-specific evidence.\"}]","Asia Pacific Education Review - Vol. 6 - No. 2 - Improving Public School Performance through Vision-based Leadership | PDF",1792073865,33]
