<p>People and their relationships formed within contexts are core to the cultures of educational organisations. The patterns of organisation and decision making within educational settings, along with the resultant expanding roles of individuals, and specifically individual leaders, highlight the importance of necessity and opportunity for ongoing professional development, presented and partaken of in many forms. Extensive published research indicates that leadership is key to organisational learning and improvement, but ultimately, it is the professional learning culture of a &#39;learning organisation&#39; that enhances organisational success. Crucial to this success is the development of processes for continual professional learning to affect organisational change. However, perceived structural and conceptual overlap of communities of practice, professional learning communities, learning organisations and learning communities, to name a few constructs, contribute to a conceptual confusion about what it means to lead professional learning in an educational organisation.</p>
