Elets 22nd World Education Summit will kick off tomorrow (17 -18 December 2021) with deliberation on essential topics that will facilitate a lot of learning and knowledge exchange. The inaugural session will focus on redefining education leadership in the sector and building a future-ready learning environment.
Educational leadership is unique and is unlike the leadership of any other sector. Here, the big challenge with educational management is how to select, train and induct leaders. Schools, universities and colleges need leaders that can shape the future of children.
Leaders in the education sector need to resolve issues like reinforcing leadership quality. The imperative thing is instead of getting frustrated by the existing rules and regulations, berate the current educational principals, be very heavy-handed with children, be lousy team-builders, very slow to challenge the established dogma, not thinking outside of the box and lastly, not able to leverage new tools as well as best practices in the education system, it is requisite to work on those loopholes that are hindering to imbibe good leadership qualities in educational faculties.

We suggest that educational institutions need to recruit a diverse pool of talents and then train them in a way that exposes them to build new leadership and management thinking, which is the need of the hour. Such refined thinking is necessary for 21st-century learning and teaching too. In addition, faculty training is a must in the new era of education.
The leaders in the event will also discuss the pedagogies of the new-age learning process and how technology will cater to these requirements. We must also tell our readers that National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 will be a major issue of conversation during the event. Knowledge will be exchanged on how to implement the policy and make it practically applicable by the stakeholders.
