The matter election of principal in schools can sometimes becomea political issue. All political parties are interested in this position,especially the ones that are now in power. The work of a principalis a rather complex activity, especially during the time of transition,when teachers, who are managed by the principals, expectthe implementation of every outlined change and to achieve thegoals of educational reform. Principals often must struggle to superviseteachers and deal with difficulties, because during theirprofessional development they did not acquire basic competencyin management, or management in education. This article discussesresearch among the main participants in education (teachers,principals, and advisors) and examines what kind of influenceeducation has on principals’ ability to provide leadership intimes of change. The results of this research show that leadershipin schools is more efficient if principals are more educated in disciplines such as management in education.
