Strengthening a culture of collaboration within the organization. To improve the quality of education.

Abstract

This academic article presents an in-depth analysis and synthesis of a conceptual framework for fostering a collaborative organizational culture to improve the quality of education, integrating organizational behavior theory, open systems theory, transformational leadership theory, and Buddhist management principles. The study found that the current educational administration context faces limitations of the traditional bureaucratic structure, which emphasizes hierarchical command, leading to fragmented work, personality conflicts, and a lack of unity in goals. The transition to a high-performing educational institution requires the cultivation of a collaborative work culture through three levels: (1) the individual level, by modifying attitudes, values, and intrinsic motivation; (2) the group level, by developing listening leadership, open communication, collaborative decision-making, and constructive conflict management; and (3) the organizational level, by adjusting flexible structures, human resource policies that promote teamwork, and applying Buddhist principles such as the Four Noble Truths, the Four Noble Truths, common understanding, the Six Principles of Harmony, and reconciliation to reduce ego and create shared consciousness. Driving a collaborative work culture through professional learning communities ( PLCs) and the 3 C-Educational Culture Model will be a crucial foundation for improving the quality of learning management and student competencies. And the sustainability of educational institutions in the era of change.
