Implicit theories of leadership in the directors of schools. A theoretical reflection

Nora Idalia Perez Carta, Celia Carrera Hernandez

Abstract :

This document shows the results of a review of the literature on implicit theories and their relation to the way in which the directors of schools construct them. The purpose is to analyze the literature focused on the study of implicit theories, identify the aspects that influence its construction and the elements that identify them. Texts were selected that refer to three central models of educational planning such as democratic teleological theory, techno-efficiency and autocratic, since these theoretical perspectives filter the type of management and implicit leadership exercised by principals in schools of different educational levels. .
