Objective(s) planning a career in educational leadership as they seek out and develop their own

Definition of Law of Continuity- states that evolution proceeds from the simpler to the more complex.
Terms Law of Design – holds that growth in complexity does not mean merely an accumulation
of elements; rather when a certain degree of complexity is reached, evolution must
proceed to a new plane in order for the process to continue.
Natural Law – is not a codified body of precepts, but refers to the parameters that define
the milieu of being that which follows from the essential nature of humanity.
Will to Meaning – gives priority to the freedom of each person to effect and sustain a
direction in life that continually seeks out meaning both in major life events and in
everyday living.
Tragic Optimism – is a perspective for people who have experienced great tragedy in

1. Explain what is meant by the power of office and give an example of how educational leaders
yield power.

The power to influence is the most important skill that leaders possess. Whether the leader is autocratic
or not, alaissez-faire, he or she must be able to persuade subordinates to follow the company's vision,
objectives, and values. The ability to have an impact on someone or something is known as influence.
The ability to influence is the ability to have an impact on an individual, group, organization, or social
level within an organizational system. The degree of influence or processes that leaders have within
organizations is usually determined by the authority they hold within the firm or power of office.
Power has the potential to be harmful. In the context of an organization, however, the capacity to wield
authority can benefit both the leader and his or her subordinates. Within is the source of power.

More so, power is inherent in all professional interactions with a supervisor–employee component. The
issue of ethics must be studied in relation to power, particularly the power of office, in the practice of
educational leadership. Inspiring, charismatic, expert, persuasive, knowing, and coercive are the six
qualities of office authority. Dependent employees frequently try to counteract administrators'
assertiveness or sanctions with techniques for generating a positive impression, such as conformity,
justifications, apologies, and favors. Schools and school districts, like other institutions, have a culture
that is always changing. Hence, individuals inside a school or school district, particularly educational
leaders in relation to their authority of office, can have a beneficial or bad impact on the culture of the
institution.

2. Explain the transcendental dimension of educational leadership.

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel's philosophy has a different approach to obligation. In the sense that it
is abstract and universal, his concept of responsibility is transcendental. As a result, people are freed
from doing their duties in order to achieve a specific goal, but they are urged to do so for the sake of
doing so. The universal principle of Hegel is to do what is right and strive for it. Welfare here refers to
the well-being of others. Duty is the essence of moral self-awareness, and pursuing welfare necessitates
people deciding for themselves whether or not welfare is good. Only via the execution of duty, according
to Hegel, can a person come to grasp his or her freedom. Finally, private rights take a back seat to public
rights.
