A good school leader is a person who is a visionary and is knowledgeable about the innovations and/or tools that would inspire learning under his/her watch. As such, this leader should be:
1. Aware - Not only should this person know what and how students should be learning, but that person should be very knowledgeable of the context within which students are placed. This context would refer to the socio-economic backgrounds of the students, the school's culture and the demographics of the students.
2. Innovative - This leader would need to then use his or her knowledge and be creative in his or her implementation of policies and principles.
3. Pro-active - This leader would lead the charge in recognizing the needs of the students and teachers and devise ways of meeting those needs before the needs escalate into chaos.
4. Courageous - This leader must be willing to pilot new ideas with determination, confidence and patience.
5. Passionate - This person must demonstrate passion in every area of the school's life.
6. Curious - This person should always seek for new and creative ways of enhancing learning within and without the school environment.
