Abstract

The author posts the question concerning the reasons why educational efforts focusing on the quality education and betterment of this field do not lead to the stability and balance in the human relationships understood globally. In the first step drawing on the understanding of educational organizations worked out in the field of management and educational leadership he discusses the possible strategies of a change in school culture and climate. In the second step he refers to the concept of equilibrium interpreted by Hans-Georg Gadamer and on this basis he reveals consequences of educational policies that miss the possibilities of dialogic relationships between different stakeholders of education. The main message of the text emphasises a chance for mutual understanding in education and its power to promote equilibrium worldwide.
