From Manager to Leader: The Impossible Transition of the Principals of the Schools of Mauritius

Abdool Rashid Jogee

Abstract: In this article, we are going to look at the difference between a manager and a leader; since leadership is a step above management, a manager should make the effort to transit to leadership; what qualities, traits, skills are needed to become a leader; the potentials of leadership; what are the steps to be taken to do this transition successfully; what pitfalls the manager may encounter on his way to leadership. In the last resort, we shall see whether the principals of the schools of Mauritius can make the transition from managers to leaders and what are the barriers that prevent them from doing so, and whether they will ever be able to overcome these barriers.
