Abstract

The moral leadership of higher education administrators is the positive guidance of teachers' inner expression and emotional experience through ethical methods. Education administrators should help them shape values that are in line with the essence of education in their worldview, establish positive value orientations, and enable them to achieve self-management. Cultivating moral leadership in universities can balance the relationship between individuals and organizations, effectively resolving conflicts and disputes between departments and teachers caused by conflicts of interest in universities. Using ethical methods for educational leadership, shaping people's values, and aligning individual value pursuits with the development goals of the school. Using the power of culture to achieve leadership, combining the cultural foundation existing in the school, integrating the subtle cultural influence into a self consistent structural organization, becoming the spiritual support of the organization, guiding people to consciously devote themselves to the school's cause, enabling faculty and staff to set development goals that are suitable for themselves while clarifying the relationship between school development and themselves, and achieving self-management. On this basis, we will build a moral community in schools, so that members of various organizations in schools can rely on each other and develop together on the basis of shared values. In this way, moral leadership can help educators achieve the unity of self-management and high-quality school development.
