Management styles grounded in interpersonal roles: focus on heads of school in India

Research in educational settings has indicated, inter alia, that the organizer and administrator’s personality (principal’s), ways of working, the nature of her/his interpersonal relationships and administrative practices or behavior are likely to be some of the important reasons behind the differential performance of schools. Perhaps, this is so because “experience without wisdom” can be a trap. Headships who reflect on their own interpersonal behavior create opportunities for components of the school (teachers, students, non‐academics and parents) to realize their individual capabilities in the face of rapidly changing demands of growth and job satisfaction (e.g. reduced interpersonal conflicts). Every such stakeholder has an eye on the managerial capabilities of the principal of the school. Thus, more interpersonally skillful and gifted the leadership available in a school, the more performing the institution.

Regulatory Considerations When Children are Involved as Subjects in Research

Investigators planning research projects face a myriad of considerations including careful review of the literature, study design, selection of subject population, analysis of data, financial and administrative support, and publishing the data. One area for careful thought by those contemplating research in educational settings is the regulatory requirements that may apply when human subjects--children or students in particular--are involved in the research. This article describes the applicability and some basic provisions of US Dept. of Health and Human Services (DHHS) regulations for the protection of human subjects, requirements for informed consent, and some additional protections for children involved in research. Suggestions for preparing a grant application for DHHS support and sources of additional information also are included.
