You're aiming to lead in education. What skills and qualifications will set you apart in the future?

Digital literacy is as important as being rooted in values. There is a kind of balance between the two that should be kept in mind and aimed at, setting yourself apart in the future. We all talk about being futuristic, but what about staying connected to the roots (while doing so) to have a sense of real fulfilment?

Technology in education is an integral part of a student’s experience in school. As technology rapidly changes it is imperative that teachers are supported in emphasizing the importance of digital citizenship to all students. Practicing and teachingdigit citizenship is integral to fostering a safe, positive and welcoming school environment.

To lead in education, develop strong skills in leadership, communication, and critical thinking. Gain qualifications in educational administration, curriculum development, and technology integration. Emphasize continuous professional development, cultural competency, and a deep understanding of educational policy. Experience in innovative teaching methods and data-driven decision-making will also set you apart.

Digital literacy is very important, today is the Era of digital knowledge. There are many student /employee who can't go outside due to some reason.Digital technology help us to involve descently in global community.

One unique aspect of futuristic leadership that I have learnt over time is adaptability; It is an art that comes with Flexibility to navigate and implement changes in educational practices, policies, and technologies. In Kenya we are implementing a new curriculum and as leaders we must be very adaptable to make the new learner approaches to learning work for the sake of our students.

Transformative, critical instruction starts with two why's: WHY are you learning this, and WHY do I want to teach it to you. The first one we spend a lot of time talking to kids about with learning objectives, learning targets, building context, previewing. But I think we don't often consider the latter enough. What if I don't want to teach it? Am I the most effective choice, or is there way a colleague can sub in? Is the gap between my interest and my approach impacting the quality of my instruction? Something to think about.

Emotional intelligence is key as it is timeless. Digital literacy and effective integration of technology vary so much with innovations that while important, being on the cutting edge here is overwhelming. But understanding yourself and those you lead do not change based on new technologies. Understanding Artificial Intelligence is important, but understanding the values and abilities of those being led are critically important skills. All the technical knowledge in the world will not make someone a leader. Strong relationships and knowing how to motivate people will.

Emotionale Intelligenz ist ein besonders wichtiger Baustein in der Mitarbeiterführung und besonders m pädagogischen Bereich enorm wichtig, da es quasi pausenlos Kontakte mit Menschen gibt, auf die möglichst emphatisch reagiert werden muss. Zu erkennen, in welchem Zustand das Gegenüber ist, welche Wünsche bestehen und mit welchen Glaubenssätzen man konfrontiert ist, erleichtert jede schwierige Situation enorm.

Being an inclusive leader means you are thinking and acting for all. As a leader, you are speaking for everyone that you represent and this means that you are invaluable to those that work under you. Being a team means that you all support one another and work together. Being an inclusive leader means that you are the voice of that team. Speak for all those that are a part of the team.

The effective, inclusive leaders are not back-bending crowd pleasers. That's a great way to get nothing done. Rather, inclusive leadership means you're a part of your own team, a coach who knows their players, able and ready to employ the various strengths and perspective to attack whatever problems you face or find. The mere act of inclusion for inclusion's sake is hollow. A strategic understanding and appreciation for difference of experience and perspective is exactly the means for creating robust solutions, systems, and most importantly, building up effective teams.

You are likely wrong. Where is hard to determine—that's what teamwork and diversity of perspective is for. But understanding that you're likely wrong is the first step to effective, strategic thinking.

Schulentwicklung und deren Planung ist grundsätzlich auf eine mindestens mittelfristige Umsetzung ausgelegt. Entscheidungen zu bestimmten Entwicklungsfragen haben in der Regel eine lange Umsetzungszeit und sind im schwerfälligen Bildungsbereich nur mühsam zu korrigieren. Dementsprechend müssen Schulleitungen möglichst strategisch Vorgehen und Eventualitäten mitdenken. Bildungsentwicklungen sollten antizipiert und eingepreist werden. Außerdem müssen aktuelle Entwicklungen genau verfolgt werden.

Open-mindedness and a willingness to actively learn from experiences and new opportunities offered by advancing technology and research into students and how they learn can only benefit educators and leaders. Having a solid grounding in current theory and historical approaches is important, but adapting and applying these skills in new ways to meet changing contexts and demands can set one apart. In a changing world, the ability to learn and adapt to new circumstances may prove to be essential.

Moreover research qualities are also required for a leader in the field of education. A researcher may think critically and having a strong problem solving skill. I think a leader who take decision on the base of research never defeated by anyone.
