요약 : Based on analysis of the data collected, conclusions could be raised regarding the strategies used to sustain and perpetuate change within the two private Christian schools. My findings conclude that faith in leadership provides an intentional driving force as well as a determining factor in defining the overall organizational practices, cultural behaviours and responses to change at all levels of the school. This study also concludes that the strength of this driving spiritual force is inadequate for sustaining a school beyond its survival stage if other organizational elements are not in place, it is hoped that this study provides private Christian schools with strategies for applying theory to sustainable practices for long term improvement.
초록/해제  
요약 : Drawing on the leadership theories of Fullan (2001, 2005), Collins (2001), Senge (1990), Sergiovanni (1992) and Fry (2003)---with their emphasis upon moral imperatives---this study analyzes organizational sustainability practices within the context of leadership and systems thinking. For the purpose of this research, sustainability is defined as the capacity of an organization to survive as a viable institution and to demonstrate ongoing improvement practices. With this definition in mind, this study examines Christian leadership in two Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) schools as a means to explore their capacity to move beyond the survival stage of organizational change and to look ahead towards enduring practices. With respect to the challenge that private Christian schools face, this research concentrates on the sustainability of the organization as an entity through its capacity to engage in continuous change. Faith-based leadership is also studied for its impact on implementing such structural mechanisms for organizational sustainability.
초록/해제  
요약 : This is a qualitative descriptive case study in which two private Christian schools are analyzed to ascertain the impact that spiritual leadership has on their organizational change and sustainability practices. The research is guided by the following primary research question: In the perception of leaders and teachers, what role does Christian leadership play in sustained organizational change in Christian schools? This primary research question can be broken down into four components: (1) What do leaders and teachers of Christian schools see as indicators of sustained change? (2) How is sustained change characterized by leaders and teachers in Christian schools? (3) What strategies do leaders and teachers of private Christian schools use to sustain change? (4) What elements facilitate and/or constrain the organization's ability to sustain the change process in these private Christian school settings? To collect the data needed for this study, school leaders were interviewed individually while department heads and teachers were interviewed in focus group sessions.
