Although there are many aspects of language education that have been covered extensively in the literature, from methodologies to technologies, Leadership in Language Education (LiLE) has until recently received very little attention.


As the world saw during the global Covid-19 pandemic, poor leadership at the highest levels costs lives. The world needs better leaders-at every level of society-and Reflecting on Leadership in Language Education represents the first time that Reflective Practice has been positioned at the forefront of leadership development in language education.


This is also the first book ever to bring together three centuries of LiLe experience in a single volume, capturing insights from a total of 300 years of the lived leadership experiences of the ten contributing authors.
