Women and Educational Management: Perceptions of teachers in primary education
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Economics, Business and Management - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
Abstract: Despite the legal equality of the sexes, the mass exodus of women in the workplace, the large numerical presence in education and the high rates of women who seek their expertise through university studies, the area of educational administration continues to be inaccessible for women, even at the lower levels of the administrative hierarchy, such as managerial positions of municipal schools. By conducting quantitative research on men and women teachers working in primary schools of the prefecture of Imathia sought the root causes of the phenomenon by recording the views collected during the period March - April 2013, using a questionnaire. With this view, we investigated the way men and women in our sample, perceive and approach the effective leadership, trying to focus on similarities or differences between them, which are related to the model of effective leader as it emerges from bibliography and as it is required by the contemporary social, political, cultural and economic conditions. The study showed no difference between female and male management style and projected the value of androgynous characteristics that an effective leader must have. Keywords: educational administration, women's underrepresentation, causes.
