Abstract

Abstract. Modern and innovative management in education requires full commitment to work,
responsibility, and efficiency in performing tasks that ultimately lead to the success or failure of the
manager. When the managerial function is performed in the educational process, in scientific
research or in the educational activity, then success is related to a number of other factors that
create the character of the institution, such as the specifics of their business, the importance of these
institutions for the general development of the country, qualification structure, etc.
Referring to these segments of the characteristics of a successful principal manager in the
school and starting from the fact that the managerial skills of a principal in the education system are
evaluated in managing the innovations or changes that occur in the school and knowing the fact that
these changes show resistance tendencies from both teachers and other school staff, technical,
administrative and pedagogical, this theoretical-empirical work includes a concise analysis of a
resistance of teachers that was presented within several years of education (2013-2019) to the use
of the Whiteboard in the teaching process in high school. It is worth mentioning that, with the
increase of the number of Electronic Boards in the school as an innovation, the number of teachers
that show resistance to their use also increased and in the last two years; it is worth mentioning that
with the measures and mechanisms undertaken by the principal (organizing trainings in the school
for the use of Electronic Boards and rewards for teachers who achieve concrete success with the
use of Electronic Boards) in the last two years this resistance decreases.
Key words: Management; Change management in education; Educational methods; ICT in
education; Smart electronic boards.
