D. Mukhamedova
Hereinafter we consider the social and psychological aspects of innovative management in the education system and the specific character of the innovative activities of education managers. The following is a description of factors that determine the efficiency of the innovative activities of managers in the organization of educational and training processes.
The specific character of innovative management in education reveals itself in the interaction of training and management activities, i.e. all tasks are focused on achievement of a main goal, the preparation of a highly qualified specialist. Innovative management involves the use of scientific, technical, psychological, pedagogical, social and economic achievements, the putting of information and pedagogic techniques into practice, and making it possible to improve the quality of preparation of modern specialists.
The general purpose of innovative management in education is to ensure social and pedagogical conditions that include: the creation of an environment for development, the building of system-oriented and action-oriented educational content, the professional development of teaching staff, and the reform of training processes toward innovation.
Our understanding of the innovative management in the field of education, from the point of view of social psychology, includes: first of all, meeting educational and training goals using the innovative methods; secondly, transferring innovation knowledge and experience of participants; thirdly, organizing a certain system of innovative relations at different levels (“manager - teacher”, “manager -student”, “teacher - student”, “manager - parents”, etc.); fourthly, developing a system of social and psychological support for personal improvement (personnel and participants of the process); fifthly, creating a system of social and psychological reflection of management realities by all participants of the management process. Raising this issue helps managers in the field of education to evaluate relations between internal and external actors, objective and subjective characters, individual and group interests, etc. Communication is very important, because it equals social activities and dialogue that is carried out by all participants of the innovative educational and training process. The efficiency of the innovative activities of managers in the field of education is not only determined by its theoretical and practical preparation. According to the results of our research, motivation and needs are also important factors that influence management activities.
From the point of view of a communicative approach, the management activities of managers in the field of education, being social-type managers, are focused on guaranteeing order and coherence in the actions of participants of the innovative process, and optimizing all forms of their communication for the purpose of tackling important tasks. Consequently, the innovative management activity of education managers is a precondition for the efficient interaction of individuals with the social environment.
