This article adopts human capital leadership as its central lens. Draw¬ing on a synthesis of the literature and perspectives from education gov¬ernance, it delineates the components of teachers’human capital, namely knowledge, skills, and competencies, and presents the definition, pur¬poses, and core dimensions of human capital leadership. Incorporating the professional capital perspective, the article explicates the co-presence of human, social, and decisional capital in school settings and the need for their integration, providing points of reference for understanding the leadership meanings and practical enactments of principals in Taiwanese primary and secondary schools in the contexts of the post-pandemic era and educational reform. The article also summarizes a shift in principals’roles from administrative management and instructional supervision to¬ward a leadership orientation centered on teacher professional develop¬ment, and identifies six commonly discussed strategies in the literature: talent selection and deployment, systematic teacher professional develop¬ment, individualized guidance and growth planning, building a collab¬orative culture and professional learning communities, leveraging middle leadership teams, and attending to teacher welfare and job satisfaction. Finally, the article outlines practice-relevant issues and enabling condi¬tions in the Taiwanese context, including principals’capacity building, administrative workload and delegation arrangements, the development of evaluation tools for teacher growth outcomes, and adaptive directions for implementation within institutional and school-cultural contexts, as references for educational administration and school leadership practice. |
