The present review addresses how educational leaders can improve their managerial skills to address current challenges in the field of education. Current research 18 that met strict inclusion and exclusion criteria was identified through a comprehensive review of all articles published for the period 2020 and 2024 in databases such as Scopus, Scielo, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science. The results show that the management of educational institutions and the effectiveness of pedagogical leaders can be profoundly changed by implementing educational programs that incorporate managerial skills. Numerous studies delineate the importance of continuous professional development, institutional support, and effective resource allocation, while pointing out the demographic and cultural elements that impact educational leadership. To increase academic achievement and educational quality by strengthening managerial competencies, it is necessary to improve pedagogical leadership. This can be achieved by developing managerial and emotional skills, providing institutional support and ongoing training, and taking into account the cultural and demographic environment.
