ABSTRACT
In addition, competent leaders know that they have to interact with the various departments within the school district. ey know how to build relationships that will help secure resources and get assistance when these interactions do not work e ectively. In short, competent leaders are resourceful and dedicated to ensuring that they have the personal capital to make things happen. Can they get their teachers necessary supplies? Can they ensure that students can access the materials needed to learn? For example, your school might have selected new textbooks or materials for teaching science, but without appropriate supplies, the teachers cannot conduct the activities. A competent leader is aware that the training to use the science equipment is just as important as the availability of the supplies needed to conduct the labs. erefore, as the leader, you ensure that both types of resources and support are in place.
