    A personal leadership statement
    (Universidad de Córdoba, 2024-12-19) Pérez García, José Manuel; García Murillo, Andrea Daniela; Aguas Castillo, Pedro Pablo; Aguas Castillo, Pedro Pablo
    Esta declaración de liderazgo explora el rol de los futuros docentes líderes en la creación de un ambiente de aula de apoyo a través del liderazgo, específicamente desde una perspectiva de liderazgo en equipo. Como futuros profesores de lenguas extranjeras, el liderazgo se define como un proceso interactivo en el que líderes y seguidores se influyen mutuamente para lograr una visión y un propósito compartidos, siendo la adaptabilidad un aspecto crucial a medida que las circunstancias cambian. Aunque el liderazgo es un concepto complejo, esta declaración se centra en el liderazgo en equipo y discute su rol en las escuelas. Cada individuo aborda los supuestos relacionados con la efectividad del liderazgo de diferentes maneras; no obstante, los líderes exitosos siempre desafían sus propios supuestos. Los docentes líderes abogan por el empoderamiento a través de la toma de decisiones inclusiva, promoviendo un entorno de apoyo donde estudiantes y educadores puedan participar activamente. Este enfoque de liderazgo se alinea con la necesidad de un marco colaborativo en las escuelas tradicionales, con el objetivo de construir comunidades educativas empoderadas.

    A personal leadership statement
    (Universidad de Córdoba, 2025-07-05) Negrete Burgos, Yimis Andrés; Oviedo Morales, Jesús David; Aguas Castillo, Pedro Pablo; González Lara, Delia; Valle Zapata, Liliana
    This paper explores teacher leadership as a powerful tool for educational improvement, especially in the context of foreign language teaching. Based on Daft’s (2008) leadership perspective, the paper highlights how leadership is not only about holding a formal position, but about guiding, influencing, and supporting others through collaboration and shared goals. Teacher leaders can play an essential role in creating a positive school culture and improving classroom practices. The paper reflects on how our personal and professional assumptions affect the way we lead. It discusses how collaborative learning during the course helped uncover those assumptions and promoted deeper reflection. It also presents key questions that future teacher leaders should ask themselves to grow in their practice. The section on leadership empowerment explains how teachers can be motivated and supported to take initiative, develop confidence, and influence change. Supported by research, the work shows that effective leadership depends on trust, inclusion, and teamwork. The final reflections show that empowering teachers leads to stronger, more innovative schools, and helps ensure quality in foreign language education.
