It is no surprise that successful school leaders have strong
interpersonal skills. That they can communicate, motivate, resolve
conflict, build teams, and persuade others at high levels is well
documented by research. However, new research indicates that
emotion plays a pivotal role in using these skills and there is a
new awareness of the importance of the emotions in our behavior and
decision-making. This book explains the research and concepts and
places them in the nitty-gritty environment in which school
leadership occurs. The exercise of leadership is analyzed through
three conceptual frames: (1) The Leader, (2) Constituents, and (3)
The Situation. Case studies, events taken from recent news, and
behavioral and neurological research are described to illustrate
the importance of emotions in leadership. Each chapter closes with
a statement of five fundamental facts to aid the reader in
integrating and applying the information to his or her situation.
It will also enable readers to know and manage their own emotional
stability and engender emotional awareness and assurance in others.
