| From the back cover: "This new book by the founders of the International Alliance for Invitational Education is an innovative and practical guide for leadership based upon the principles of trust, respect, optimism, and intentionality. Addressing the total environment in which leaders function, Invitational Leadership involves a generous and genuine turning toward others in empathy, with the ultimate goal of collaborating with them on projects of mutual benefit. This model has been successfully applied in numerous fields, including high education, K-12 administration and teaching, corporate management, public administration, hospital administration, nursing, government, military, not-for-profit, human resources, counseling and related helping professions. Drawing from a wide range of philosophical and psychological theories - as well as personal anecdotes and time-tested sources of wisdom - Becoming an Invitational Leader will help both present and aspiring leaders learn to invite themselves and others into lives of great professional and personal significance." |
