Περίληψη: Researchers used Lewin's Three-Step Model as the theoretical framework in determining effective leadership for change in Alabama Science of Reading Spotlight Schools by grouping the themes into the phases of Unfreezing, Moving, and Refreezing. This qualitative descriptive study used interview and focus group data to research the experiences of K-3 teachers and school leaders in Alabama Science of Reading Spotlight Schools to determine effective leadership during a state mandated change. Braun and Clarke's six steps for thematic analysis was applied to the interviews utilizing MAXQDA software. The researchers found that effective leadership for change could be found in the five themes of strategic structures, data driven collaboration, school culture, capacity building, and supportive leadership. The five themes fit into the criteria for being named an Alabama Science of Reading Spotlight School and mirror the spotlighting characteristics for the schools. The results of this study hold significance in giving insight into effective leadership, ethical leadership, teacher efficacy, climate, culture, organizational change, strategic planning, and school improvement in Alabama Science of Reading Spotlight Schools. This is important to policy and practice because understanding teachers' and leaders' experiences of what makes an effective leader can impact many areas of educator preparation programs in the future.
