Abstract

This article explores cultural definitions of educational leadership through the use of metaphors. It describes the AusAID funded 2007 Australian Leadership Award Fellowship program, the Fellows and the program's content. The article provides a broad overview of the leadership literature that the Fellows explored during the program, with a particular focus on Systems Leadership. The metaphor process is outlined and the Fellows' metaphors are identified and described. The article concludes with a distillation of leadership qualities and characteristics, and points towards further research, discussion, and debate on intercultural leadership.
