`This book tackles the leadership question by looking both outward
and inward, the latter being how to sustain oneself as a
leader...Developing Sustainable Leadership is an important
contribution to the field of educational leadership' - Education
Libraries `This collection of pithy analysis and insightful
solutions will be easily assimilated by school leaders, policy
makers and community stakeholders who will, with relative ease, be
left eager to recontextualise the wisdom within to their own unique
circumstances' - ESCalate `School leaders and teachers know a lot
more than they think they do. So, what prevents the release of that
creative energy? Look, no further than this thought provoking
collection of essays from world leading scholars. It treats us to a
kaleidoscopic view of what we do know, what we ought to know and
what we urgently need to do to harness the power of sustainable
leadership. Policy makers, please take careful note!' - John
MacBeath, Professor Education Leadership, University of Cambridge
With increasing accountability pressures, developing and sustaining
leaders is a major challenge for all those involved in education
today. This book brings together eleven outstanding writers to
provide insights, frameworks and ideas on how we can sustain our
school leaders and develop values-based leadership in order to
counter the short-term management solutions that abound. Andy
Hargreaves, Dean Fink, Michael Fullan, Brent Davies, Ken Leithwood,
David Hopkins, Geoff Southworth, Brian Caldwell, Chris Day, Terry
Deal and Gib Hentschke represent some of the most powerful thinkers
and writers in the educational leadership field who respond to the
challenge of how we can develop and sustain our school leaders.
While a great deal has been written on preparation for leadership,
this book takes leadership thinking to the next level by providing
strategies for enhancing and empowering the leaders we have. This
book is a key source of ideas, insights and frameworks for all
those involved in sustaining our school leaders. 'Offers a clarity
to complex problems that enables both the academic and general
reader to identify with the issues dealt with...the book is an
enjoyable insight into several leaders' view on leadership, which
Brent Davies has pulled together well and which will be of use to
headteachers, aspiring leaders and academics alike' - International
Journal of Educational Management
