Power of Responsive Educational Leadership
«
‘We are facing a number of serious challenges all over the globe and we need to search for adequate ways to deal with them when current approaches cease to be effective. Undoubtedly, education needs to be in the core of these initiatives. This is why the search for responsive leadership is so topical. This book is a valuable contribution to these efforts.’
Professor Milan Pol, Masaryk University, Brno, Czech Republic
‘Mazurkiewicz and Fischer readily acknowledge the complicated nature of our world, the challenges facing humankind locally and globally, and the integral role that education plays. They urge all of us to take up the challenge of bettering our children, our schools, our world, and ourselves. That is what good educational leaders do—identify the challenges, see the possibilities, and realize the potential within all of us.’

Includes a range of internationally diverse case studies and vignettes
