Jane Cobia, Elizabeth F. Smith and Leah Anne Wood Samford University  \nAbstract  \nThe purpose of this study was to examine factors impacting program quality in leadership development programs as a means to inform the Shelby County School System of effective practices in leadership development. The qualitative research design method was used to explore two school systems identified through a comprehensive review of research as having exemplary leadership development programs. Telephone interviews were conducted with personnel responsible for the implementation of their school system’s leadership development program. A set of predetermined questions were utilized in the interviews. Respondents were asked to elaborate on the unique qualities of their leadership development program, as well as, offer recommendations on how to begin the process of developing a quality program. As a result of this study, school systems should develop programs based on research and revealed implications providing a robust program easily adapted for aspiring leaders, as well as those currently in leadership positions.  \nKey Words: Leadership Development; Leadership Training; School Administration; Leadership Effectiveness; Leadership Development Models.  \nPerhaps United States Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan, said it best when he stated,“There are no good schools without good principals”(2009) . The vision of the Shelby County School System is to be the model for excellence in education. As stated in his letter of request to become a client of Samford University (March 6, 2015), current Superintendent Randy Fuller wanted this vision to be fulfilled and thereby requested a study of best practices in leadership development. The purpose of this study was to engage in a reflective critique of exemplary leadership development programs and to offer recommendations to the Shelby County School Superintendent concerning exemplary practices of a leadership development program. Superintendent Fuller wants to continuously develop leaders who will carry on the vision of being a model of excellence in education. As a means to that end, the authors researched exemplary leadership development programs in a review of the literature and by interviewing leaders from two programs. The research was designed to provide valuable data, insight, and direction to the Shelby County School System as it attempts to create and implement a leadership development program. The focus of this study was on content, delivery methods, and other factors that impact program quality from school systems that are nationally recognized to provide exemplary, purposeful leadership development programs.  \nSignificance of Leadership  \nGene Bottoms, Southern Regional Education Board (SREB) senior vice-president iterated the need to have to have skilled principals who know a lot more about curriculum and instruction and how to work with faculty in creating the conditions for improved student achievement (Olson, 2007) . In addition to improving student achievement, research showed evidence that a principal can affect variables such as parents’perceptions of the school, teachers’decisions about where to work and teachers’ satisfaction (Rice, 2010) . Rice (2010) also found lowachieving, high-poverty schools tend not to have effective principals.  \nRobert Eaker noted it is virtually impossible to re-culture school or school districts into high-performing professional learning communities without widely dispersed, high-quality leadership (Buffum, 2008 p. vii) . The Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) also reported “On day one, principals should be able to blend their energy, knowledge and professional skills to collaborate with, and motivate others to transform school learning environments in ways that ensure all students will graduate college and career ready”(CCSSO, 2012, p. 3) .  \nLeadership and Student Achievement  \nWahlstrom, ","cbCaiehOlB82m7GS","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiehOlB82m7GS","pdf",178331,"English","# Abstract\n# Significance of Leadership\n## Leadership and Student Achievement\n# District Role in Leadership Development","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of the study on leadership development programs?\",\"answer\":\"To examine factors that impact program quality in leadership development and inform the Shelby County School System about effective practices.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the research conducted in this study?\",\"answer\":\"A qualitative design was used, including telephone interviews with personnel implementing leadership development programs in two school systems identified as exemplary.\"},{\"question\":\"Which aspects are described as affecting leadership development program quality?\",\"answer\":\"The study focuses on content, delivery methods, and other factors that influence program quality.\"}]","Leadership Development Model for Shelby County Schools | PDF",23]
