Abstract:
It is impossible to overstate the importance of leaders in the sector. Educational leaders have a crucial role in establishing the course for stakeholders, including teachers, students, and school leaders and administrators, within the educational business. As a result, this essay evaluates the value of strong educational leadership in the area of education. The article focused on Jean Piaget and looked at his leadership style and contributions to education. It was discovered that Piaget's cognitive development theory, which later became recognized as the focus of the Swiss psychologist's work, was primarily concerned with child development. This hypothesis has been used as a foundation for describing how young infants learn arithmetic better by handling actual items and how they interact with objects. The fields of symbolic mathematics, artificial intelligence, and developmental psychology have all benefited from it. In conclusion, it is well known that many contemporary researchers have continued to criticize the writings and leadership styles of various leaders, including Jean Piaget. However, it is impossible to overlook the well-known influence of its employees on a variety of educational subjects, including educational psychology and philosophy of education.
