Organized in three sections, this book clearly presents the practical application of leadership through an interdisciplinary approach. Fowler and Raehll provide a rich text with contributions of authors in both PK-12 Schools and Higher Education, and this text would be a welcome addition to any educational leadership program." — Sonya D. Hayes, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville "Effective leadership development and corresponding leadership skills are not unique to any one profession, or leadership position. Effective leadership transcends all professions and effective leadership is evident in all effective leaders and leadership positions. Therefore, On Leadership: An Interdisciplinary Approach, is a timely must read for current and aspiring leaders. Siloed leadership development must be a thing of the past." — Michael Schwanenberger, Northern Arizona University "Undoubtedly forward-thinking content that will serve as key fundamentals in the future training of leaders in and out of the educational landscape.
