About this title

Synopsis

This book analyzes leadership roles based on values and ideas rather than on bureaucratic processes. The collection of articles by Thomas Sergiovanni promotes substance, not process, as the key to leadership. Three sections comprise the book: section one defines leadership as a moral craft, section two addresses the developmental stages of leadership, and section three discusses leadership roles in the learning community. A common theme through all three sections stresses the importance of effective leaders being able to build learner-centered communities. For individuals who have a leadership or educational role in their community or school setting.
