Perfil del líder educativo para optimizar procesos de gestión institucional en la Unidad Educativa Fray Vicente Solano.

Abstract

Educational leadership is key in any institution and exercising it competently is imperative for community success. This research focuses on developing a transformational educational leadership profile to optimize institutional management at the “Fray Vicente Solano” Educational Unit. The key competencies that an effective educational leader must possess were identified and defined. The methodology used included a qualitative approach, with interviews and surveys directed at managers and teachers, followed by a detailed analysis of the data. The results revealed the need to strengthen educational leadership, highlighting the lack of cohesion and collaboration between educational actors. Based on these findings and on educational quality standards, a training plan for managers was designed, focused on the development of competencies such as strategic management, communication skills, and the ability to inspire and motivate. The plan is structured into specific activities, projected times, and a monitoring matrix to evaluate its effectiveness. This study provides a practical guide to train educational leaders aligned with the specific needs and contexts of the institution.
