Lazenby, Suzanne; McCulla, Norman; Marks, Warren – International Journal of Leadership in Education, 2022
Less is known about the professional development of experienced principals, defined here as having more than five years in the role, than that of aspirant principals. This deficit is somewhat surprising at a time when experienced principals are viewed as key players in two major international school leadership movements of the 21st century: the…
