Investigating Leader Self-Efficacy Through Policy Engagement and Social Network Position

Abstract/Description

Leaders? self-efficacy has recently been identified as a critical component in the success of educational reform. In educational policy and leadership, little attention has been paid to leaders? self-efficacy beliefs as they go about the implementation of Common Core State Standards (CCSS). This study seeks to understand leaders? CCSS self-efficacy by examining the level of CCSS-focused engagement and the degree of leaders? network connectedness from a social learning perspective. Findings suggest leaders who report higher levels of CCSS-focused engagement tend to be more efficacious about implementing CCSS. Such a relationship is mediated by leaders? social network position in providing CCSS advice and work effort recognition to their fellow administrators.
