Abstract: The article focuses on developing the competence of principals to exercise control in restructuring schools in Oman. With the move to a decentralized structure by the Ministry of Education (MOE) of Oman, school principals should focus more on leadership than management and implementation of the Principal Leadership Training (PLT) program for certain principals. A brief country information about Oman and its goals to achieve Vision 2020 for education is presented. It also explores the Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness (GLOBE), an analysis of leadership effectiveness in relation to society and culture among nations worldwide.
