Paperback. Condition: New. Compassionate Leadership for School Improvement and Renewal aims to equip educational leaders with the knowledge, skills, and learning experiences necessary to approach their work from an intentional stance of compassion. Schools serve as both sites and sources of suffering; yet compassionate leadership can facilitate healing for students, educators, and community members. The moment is right to move the field toward a compassion-centered approach to leadership.

Paperback. Condition: New. This edited volume examines the causes, consequences, and costs of workplace incivility in P-12 education and provides practical strategies for leaders to prevent toxicity in their schools and districts. The resource provides a broad range of thought-provoking and practical contributions that situate incivility within the current sociopolitical landscape of education.
