| Summary: | The purpose of the thesis is to find out what characterizes a good leadership in the school. Five persons from two different schools were interviewed. From one school the female vice principal was interviewed. From the other school four persons were interviewed – the female principal, the male vice principal, a male teacher and a female teacher. This was executed to get a picture of their view on a successful leadership in the school. These five persons answers were then analysed with the literature in leadership. To compare the material from the interview with the leadership theories the thesis starts with a theoretical frame. The theory part begins with an explanation of the term leadership and is followed by relatively new term: Clear leadership. Then the theory part continues with a deeper explanation of Good leadership and what that means. The study shows that the principals, the vice principal and the teachers have many similar opinions on a successful leadership in schools. But in the same time their answers differ. The same applies to the interviewed persons and the leadership theories where some parts correspond and some parts do not.
