The Power of Responsive Educational Leadership examines how educational leaders might respond to global challenges such as the environment, technology, inequity, the health crisis, and the stability of democracy. It draws on models of educational leadership and development projects from around the world to explore how leaders might use the curriculum and teaching to help move their communities, regions, and countries in positive directions.

The authors argue that educational leadership needs to move away from authoritarian or transactional bureaucracy and toward leadership in a participatory mode that feels responsible for the children and adults in their institution and responsible for the society they all inhabit. The Power of Responsive Educational Leadership:






Offers a comprehensive exploration of the multifaceted nature of leadership for learning



Charts the key thinking and practices that engage with the principles of leadership for learning and the implications these have



Provides a variety of fresh perspectives on the connections between education, schooling, and leadership



Includes a range of internationally diverse case studies and vignettes

This comprehensive guide invites readers to engage in thinking about new directions for education today. The book will be a useful starting point for individuals who choose to engage in discussions and deliberations around what it means to be responsive. It will be invaluable for those who are working as principals and teachers or participating in education leadership development programs around the world and hope to work in various roles.

Grzegorz Mazurkiewicz, sociologist, teacher, and researcher, works at Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Poland. He has had a chance to experience and reflect on the educational system from different positions: student, teacher, academic, consultant, and project coordinator. He believes that education can change a world. John M. Fischer, a Professor in Social Studies Education at Bowling Green, has served as the Vice Provost for Academic Affairs. His work and research seek to investigate and improve issues around education reform with a focus on inequality, civic education, and democracy. He believes dialog across boundaries matters now more than ever.
