If technical and artistic aspects can be taken into account during school leadership process, an organization can be more harmonious and the effectiveness of school leadership can be improved. According to the literature review, there are only a very few studies on aesthetics (arts) of school leadership. However, as the representative of various ancient classic books in Chinese culture, although I Ching does not directly discuss beauty, it reflects the beauty of harmony everywhere. For example, Eight Trigrams and Hexagrams are arranged in order. Although the relationship between hexagrams is complicated, there are harmony and completeness in symmetry to reflect the balance of Yin and Yang. 12 hexagrams from Fu (returning) to Tai (pervading) and Kun represent endless circles, and 24 solar terms were derived from them, reflecting the beauty of thoughtfulness. The two hexagrams, Qian and Kun, particularly reflect the ingenious interaction between leader and the led (follower). As the treasure of Chinese culture, I Ching guides the behaviors of the Chinese for thousands of years. This study is divided into four parts. The first part briefly describes the basic concepts of I Ching; the second part investigates the meanings of aesthetics of I Ching, such as dynamic beauty of order, symmetry, and harmony of system; the third part explores the leadership wisdom of two hexagrams, Qian and Kun; and the fourth part discusses the application of aesthetics of I Ching to school leadership. |
