Leadership Skills: Integrity

Imagine you are a teacher in a school where the headteacher is dishonest, inconsistent, and unethical. How would you feel? How would you perform? How would you trust and respect your leader? How would you serve your students and your community? Chances are, you would feel demoralised, frustrated, and disillusioned. You would perform poorly, or at least below your potential. You would distrust and resent your leader, and perhaps even question their motives and decisions. You would struggle to provide the best education and care for your students and your community, and perhaps even lose your passion and purpose for your profession.
