    An exploration of educational leadership development in Victorian state schools
    Jones, John Price ( 2003)
    This paper explores trends in leadership preparation and development and includes an investigation of exemplary practice within and beyond educational sectors, locally and internationally, approaches to educational leadership and the relationship between the maturity of leaders and their professional needs. The evolution of leadership development in Victorian State Schools is described and examined within that context and considerations for future programs, encompassing the consequent agenda, are explored. To apply such a diverse agenda to a turbulent world inspires images of chaos and so a design approach, informed by strategic intentions and underpinned by the shared values of leaders and their constituents, is proposed as an option to address that scenario. The conceptual design explored was developed by Hill & Crevola (1997) and has been applied to various aspects of school improvement in Victoria, Australia.
