In particular, the emergence of modern technologies in the era of artificial intelligence has begun to play a significant role in educational administration. School administrators must therefore be prepared to respond to these global changes by addressing existing shortcomings and developing appropriate behaviors. If educational administrators are able to develop self-leadership, it can become a powerful force that enables collaboration with stakeholders to effectively drive the institution’s mission toward achieving its goals.</p> Rungtawan Pannoy Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of Association of Professional Development of Educational Administration of Thailand (JAPDEAT) 2025-12-26 2025-12-26 7 4 545 556 The Development of an Organizational Competency Model to Enhance the Administrative Potential of Higher Education Institutions: Concepts and Practices https://so04.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/JAPDEAT/article/view/282438 <p>This article aims to analyze the concepts and processes of developing an organizational competency model in the context of Thai higher education institutions. It integrates theoretical foundations with practical applications to align with modern higher education policies and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The paper highlights the meaning, category, importance, key elements, development approaches, and applications of competency models for both public and private universities. It also analyzes case studies and best practices derived from global frameworks such as the People Capability Maturity Model and Value Chain Analysis. The study findings indicate that systematic competency model development stems from individual and organizational competencies and stakeholder participation. Competency components comprise knowledge, skills, abilities, and other characteristics that can fill knowledge gaps and suggest concrete practices aligned with the Value Chain concept in education, research, and academic services, as well as organizational culture and strategies aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals and the 20-Year National Strategy, which emphasize human resource development and innovation to drive the country forward. This strategy also emphasizes the development of human resources and innovation to drive the country forward, enhancing organizational capacity for readiness for change, resulting in universities being agile and competitive at both national and international levels. Competency model development approaches include needs analysis, model development, validation and testing, evaluation, and model improvement. The application of organizational competencies will be of significant benefit to administrators, academics, and relevant personnel in adapting them for organizational development. It will particularly enhance university administrative capabilities and support sustainable lifelong learning, which will significantly benefit the higher education sector.</p> Thitinan Poolsin Sungtong Ekkarin Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of Association of Professional Development of Educational Administration of Thailand (JAPDEAT) 2025-12-27 2025-12-27 7 4 557 574 The Application of Learning Leadership and Collaborative Leadership Concepts for Educational Administration in the Digital Age https://so04.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/JAPDEAT/article/view/282393 <p>This article presents the concepts, components, and practical approaches to applying learning and collaborative leadership in the management of educational institutions in the digital age. School administrators must adapt and possess a forward-looking vision by embracing and utilizing new technologies in school administration. The implementation of instructional leadership involves inspiring others, self-development, collaborative learning, creative thinking, operational skills, learning environment management, and the effective use of information technology. These elements are integrated with collaborative leadership, which encompasses building positive relationships, fostering collaboration, effective communication skills, trust-building, and creating a shared vision. To effectively implement these leadership models in the digital context, administrators should establish a vision for digital technology, inspire the use of digital tools, promote teamwork through technology, cultivate a digital learning culture, enhance digital creativity, and manage digital learning environments. These efforts aim to transform educational institutions into learning organizations that can effectively adapt to global changes with quality.</p> Theerapat Khumting Saisunee Ngandee Jakkapat Siriwarin Nirada Wechayaluck Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of Association of Professional Development of Educational Administration of Thailand (JAPDEAT) 2025-12-27 2025-12-27 7 4 575 590 School as Learning Community: Empowered Learning Community https://so04.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/JAPDEAT/article/view/281704 <p>This academic article aims to present the concept of the <em>School as a Learning Community (SLC)</em> by applying the philosophy to school development within the local context. The approach emphasizes active participation from community members in the development of their community through learning processes, with the goal of building a strong and sustainable society grounded in shared knowledge and collective learning. The SLC model is considered an innovative approach to school administration, involving the co-creation of a new shared vision, ensuring every child has the right to learn, and enhancing both equity and quality in education. It encourages the use of knowledge, skills, and various competencies in the development of schools. Findings from the study indicate that the implementation of the SLC approach comprises several key components that support school development. These include collaborative learning through <em>Lesson Study</em>, peer learning partnerships, mentoring and coaching systems, collaborative and participatory learning activities, and <em>Open Classrooms</em>, which allow external individuals to observe and engage in the learning environment. These practices embody the public philosophy that schools, as learning communities, should follow—one of the three core philosophical foundations of the SLC model.</p> Muonmard Buengrat Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of Association of Professional Development of Educational Administration of Thailand (JAPDEAT) 2025-12-27 2025-12-27 7 4 591 604 Agile in School Administration https://so04.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/JAPDEAT/article/view/282337 <p>In the BANI era, marked by brittleness, anxiety, nonlinearity, and incomprehensibility. School administration that relies on long-term plans and rigid procedures struggles to keep pace with change, undermining the confidence of teachers, parents, students, and the community. This synthesis article proposes ways to adapt Agile practices in schools to enhance flexibility and responsiveness, drawing on a review of Agile concepts, implementation lessons, and systemic constraints within Thai education. The conclusions recommend establishing cross-functional teams to shorten work cycles and improve decision quality, together with eight practical guidelines: (1) Introduce Agile into school management through experimentation, adaptation, and continuous learning; (2) Scale Agile across the whole school; (3) Assess the organization’s Agile fit and maturity; (4) Cultivate Agile leadership that builds trust, distributes authority, and listens; (5) Adopt Agile approaches to planning, budgeting, and review; (6) Align organizational structure and people management for agility; (7) Develop enabling processes and technologies; and (8) Tailor application to each school’s context. Emphasizing Agile budgeting, short evaluation cycles, and metrics focused on outcomes and team success can elevate learning quality, strengthen collaboration, and enhance schools’ long-term competitiveness.</p> Thitikamolsiri Lapho Ornusa Punyaburana Patcharapa Tantichuwet Sumit Suwan Tussatrin Wannagetesir Siriporn Kruatong Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of Association of Professional Development of Educational Administration of Thailand (JAPDEAT) 2025-12-27 2025-12-27 7 4 605 621
