Abstract

Schools are live and learning structures that need innovation for change and improvement, so that don’t fail their main goal: teaching students for the future. What is principal’s role in a school? What are his leadership styles? What is innovation? How can a leader innovate? In this report, from our professional experience, we try to find concepts that support our vision of a principal as a leader and so as an innovator. Our conclusion: a school leader floats among the world of management and administration and the world of innovation, between normativity and vision, which we named “mimetism”.
