School Board Presidents' Perceptions of the Superintendent Selection Process
Author: Robert A. Rasmussen

Category : School board members
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
Abstract: School districts face enormous challenges with recent reductions in fiscal resources due to cuts in California's state budget and an average tenure for a school superintendent of only 3 years. School boards are challenged to find a leader who can address the needs of the school district during these difficult times. As numerous school superintendents are retiring, and a new generation of educators is applying for key positions in educational leadership, it is important to better understand the perceptions of school board presidents who have experience in selecting a school superintendent. This study explored the perceptions of the superintendent selection process of five participating school board presidents. The participants in this study shared their perceptions of the superintendent search process and selection criteria, perceptions on the most important leadership characteristics desired in a superintendent, and perceptions in the standards used to measure leadership in the candidates selected as superintendent. The findings revealed several components of the selection process that will serve school boards in evaluating the best strategy for them in conducting the superintendent search. When school boards embark on the process of selecting a superintendent, their actions become very public and ultimately reflect on how they view community involvement and input into on-going district leadership. As a result, a well-defined plan of action will reflect well on the school board, build community trust, and set the stage for a positive transition to new leadership at the superintendent level. The assertion that selecting a superintendent may very well be the school board's most important duty of action, it is imperative that such a process be articulated and integrated within the scope of district need and community involvement.

Superintendent Selection Processes
Author: Robert Waite
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Dissertations, Academic
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
The theme of locally elected school boards using vague and subjective criteria for superintendent selection emerged. This criterion was different for each board, but was based on a personal connection forged during the interview process. Objective standards are used to determine those candidates selected for interview. The consultant holds more power over the process in the interview selection stage of the process. Once the interviews begin, the consultant exits the process, allowing the school board to select the candidate. This selection occurs during the interview and is based on subjective traits, such as feeling the selected candidate is a fit or that chemistry exists between the candidate and the board.
