    This reaction paper discusses the differences between a school head acting as a leader versus a manager. As a leader, a school head uses charismatic power to influence subordinates, while as a manager they use legitimate authority. The paper notes that in practice, school heads must sometimes manage by setting rules and deadlines, but ideally lead by example through actions like coordinating with the local community. In her first year, the author's school head emphasized leading to assess teachers' abilities, but sometimes managed by delegating tasks. The author prefers the leading approach because it fosters a sense of belonging and guidance.

    School Head: Leader or manager?

    Managers have legitimate power while leaders have charismatic power. Subordinates of

    managers follow because of the power of authority while subordinates of managers follow

    because of influence.

    In school, these two types of approaches are used on case to case basis, for example in

    our setup, because of the deadlines to be met, school heads need to set objective rules that will

    meet the deadline required by the Department. The leading approach is more commonly known

    as “lead by example”. For instance, the school wants to strengthen the relationship between

    School and the Brgy. Council, our school head spearheaded the coordination with the Brgy, we

    went for mapping and other concerns regarding our students.

    In her first year in our school, she emphasizes the leading strategy maybe because she

    needs to assess the capabilities of her teachers and sometimes shows a managing style by

    delegating the work to the teachers who she think is the most capable of the task.

    I will prefer the leading approach because it gives me the feeling of belonging and being

    guided. It gives an impact on me because the task was made with the guidance of my school

    head.
