The notion of Cultural Responsive Pedagogy relates to ways both teachers and school leaders need to adopt a more dynamic relationship between home/community culture and school culture. Whilst from a pedagogical perspective this links to ways teachers adapt their pedagogy to ensure it is aligned with the cultural needs and backgrounds of our students, from a leadership perspective it is indicative of ways we need to be dependent on localised as well as Westernised approaches to leadership when working with staff from non-Western cultural contexts. This presentation will use the research on leadership in Confucian societies, as well as broader research on ethical leadership to consider models for leadership when working alongside staff in an East Asian Cultural Context.
