Educational systems are experiencing a global leadership crisis. A large number of school principals represent Baby Boomers Generation, that is, individuals born between 1946 and 1964. These principals are increasingly retiring from leadership and principal positions and there are a fewer applicants for the job. Therefore, it is critical that education systems develop the leadership capacity of teachers able to assume formal leadership positions as the current cohort of principals retire. Currently, the teaching population is made up Generation Y (Gen Y) teachers, that is, individuals born approximately between 1981 and 1995. This is the generation that must be groomed and nurtured for future leadership position in schools. Shared leadership can be an effective strategy to develop these aspiring leaders group belonging to Gen Y into leadership position. This theoretical study offers shared leadership strategies that can be considered for development of Gen Y teachers into leadership positions
