Title: Perceptions of Leadership Characteristics of Principals Who Influence Positive School Culture in Midwest Adventist Union: A Qualitative Study

The purpose of this study was to understand and describe leadership characteristics of principals who foster a positive culture in Adventist schools in a Midwest Seventh-day Adventist Union. Findings revealed principals influenced a positive school culture by embracing their multifaceted role as chief culture leaders in their schools. However, they also acknowledged that the task of maintaining a positive school culture required total dependence on God, and a pervasive attitude of continuous improvement, which could not be achieved without the co-leadership of teachers and collegial collaboration with all stakeholders, staff members and school board, primarily the board chair.

Venue for Face-to-face participants has changed to Bell Hall, Room 180.
