Abstract
Every country has a distinctive political, social and business context within which the education service is embedded. Though these interrelationships are particular to each country, the process of education leadership learning from this wider context may be able to be generalised. This chapter explores the particular situation of leadership development in England and Wales. It commences with an overview of educational leadership development in UK government programmes before turning to a range of influences from mainly business contexts. These influences include various business and professional models and programmes as well as leadership training for senior police officers and a number of current business developments such as fast tracking, learning organisations and emotional intelligence. The chapter concludes with an example of how a business consultancy, Hay McBer, is already applying its approaches to educational leadership development.
