Abstract

Leadership influences the decision making process and set the goals for an organization. In educational management, the teachers and school heads provide the leadership and direction essential to the smooth day-today running of the school. Both leadership and management are essential for effective and successful school administration. The decision’s school leaders make affect students, parents, teachers in the school and the larger society. Thus, since wrong decisions can bring consequences in an organization or institution, it becomes necessary to explore leadership styles and management of decision making that can guarantee the best results for all stakeholders in the workplace. The paper recommended among others, that democratic leadership style should be adopted by management in decision making because it is most likely to guarantee industrial peace and institutional harmony as well as goal attainment
