Yes, leaders are important in creating a culture, but there HAS to be buy-in from both teachers AND students for those leaders to be effective.
I do think, though, that a leader of excellence is required to bring everyone together. Being in a building which has become fractured by a lack of vision and trust, I would love to have a charismatic, effective leader to bring all of us together.
