Лидерската роля на учителя в съврeменнoтo oбрaзoвaниe
The Leadership Role of the Teacher in Contemporary Education

Summary/Abstract: Leadership and management are key foundations of modern education and concepts of great importance in pedagogy. The main goal of the educational system is the formation of professional competence in the future teaching staff. The improvement of educational organizations depends on the ability to take leadership actions and on the readiness to acquire leadership competencies of all participants in education. A successful leader in education creates a stimulating work environment, provides direct support to followers, ensures their commitment to higher goals, and creates conditions for the development of their potential. The goal of leadership in the learning process is to set a direction for action and to exert influence; the way to achieve this and the personality of the one who guides the learning process additionally lead to different types of leadership in which we can recognize the modern teacher. The leader must inspire, empower others, think holistically outside the scope of the work of the organization he/she is in charge of in order to achieve stable results, clarify priorities, and plan suitable activities for their realization. For a teacher to be a good leader, he/she must first of all see him-/herself as a person who initiates innovations in the organization and acts as an advocate for the change he/she wants to achieve. At the core of the overall idea is to have leadership skills to motivate others in the process of this change. In order to succeed in this, the participants in school life must be aware of their leadership skills and direct all activities in the direction of improving the quality of teaching and learning.
