dc.description.abstractThe main objective of the present research was to understanding of creativity and creative leadership in school principals. As school leaders are charged with the task of shaping learning communities it is important to understand the ways in which they approach this complex challenge. Using a phenomenological approach, seven principals in Jhelum independent schools were interviewed. Informed by research in the field, a theoretical model was designed to explore two elements of creativity: person and product. The participants shared their leadership experiences, highlighting particular creative traits they displayed in their leadership roles, the ways in which they approached challenges, the unique elements of their school communities and the contexts in which their leadership and creativity was exhibited. In regards to creativity the principals demonstrated a number of common traits. Some of these included: Status quo, commitment, optimism, efficacy, mobilizing the tensions and an ability to reflect. Risk taking, problem solving, achievement’s and mistakes and an ability to see the possibilities, programs and relationships were also evident. Linked with these skills was an astute understanding of place and time and an ability to creatively balance compliance, tradition and innovation. The findings of the research demonstrate dynamic links between change, leadership and creativity.en_US
