<br/><br/> National Education Policy–2020 is a visionary and progressive document for providing a guideline towards better education practices as per the futuristic needs of society. Implementation of it in the same spirit is a priority for all stakeholders. All stakeholders have equal responsibility towards its implementation but organizational leadership will play an important role in it. The present paper is an attempt to explore the qualities, efforts, and challenges of the organizational leader towards it. Paradigm shift is visible in every sphere so in educational organizations too. Rapid technological progression in both teaching and non-teaching sphere demands another kind of coordination and interaction among the staff members. Good team performance requires effective leadership with an emphasis on trust, clear communication, full participation, and self-management. (Mullins and Christy, 2016). In educational institutions leadership can be understood in many ways but in simplest terms, it is a relationship through which one person influences the behavior or actions of other people in an organization. When it is an academic organization, it affects all stakeholders be it teacher, student, or society; as an academic institution act as a lighthouse for society. It is the leader who changes the organizational climate. Effective leader leaves a lasting attitudinal change among the employees even when they are not with organization; organization lead to unshakable glory. – Reproduced
