The three roles of the (school) leader

 Plan-Do-Trust

A collective ambition ensures that employees can experience passion in their work, it inspires and gives meaning and direction. If the collective ambition in an organization is leading for the majority of employees, then according to Weggeman the well-known 'Plan-Do-Check-Action thing' can be thrown out and replaced by Plan-Do-Trust (Weggeman, 2007). By this he means that in the presence of a collective ambition, instead of planning and control, it is possible to work more from a culture of cooperation and trust. With the underlying basis of trust in each other's involvement and professional expertise. Something that is also strongly advocated by authors such as Lieskamp and Vink (Lieskamp & Vink, 2015) and Biesta (Biesta, 2012).
