Opis:This works' objective is to characterize the leadership and contextual factors of the head of the Department of Mathematics of a Chilean secondary education center, with a record of notable school performance, who institutionalized departmentalization as a sustainability improvement strategy. Using a descriptive approach, based on a single case study, we conducted semi-structured interviews with the head of the department and those in charge of the Technical-Pedagogical Unit of the center. The results indicate that such position and departmental unit respond simultaneously to the school leadership's internal political guidelines and to characteristics of teacher leadership that strengthen the collaboration among peers. As the main conclusion, the didactic potential of the departmental task and the value of the pedagogical leadership competencies, assumed by the leader to sustain the effectiveness of mathematics teaching and favor the teacher's professional development, is recognized.
